ADHD and Chiropractic

Natural Ways To Help Ease The Symptoms Of ADHD in West Des Moines.

Why is the number of children with ADHD on the rise? If the nervous system is malfunctioning or stressed in any way, that impacts the communication lines between different parts of the brain and your entire body.

6.4 million children in the US have been diagnosed with ADHD.
That’s approximately 11% of children 4-17 years of age.

Children diagnosed with ADHD are typically hyperactive, fidgety, anxious, and distracted. There are many different causes for this condition, however, let’s discuss two of the more common components and the importance of treating them first.

Studies have shown that the symptoms of ADHD are similar to the reaction our body makes during fight/flight mode. Due to misalignments of our spine and nerve interference, children with this type of ADHD are stuck in fight/flight mode. The Autonomic Nervous System is out of whack and can’t regulate, thus hyper energy, impulse and behavioral issues arise. This seems to be the most common component of this condition.

The second most common component of ADHD is a poorly organized nervous system. In this case, organized means, these children are in “overdrive.” Their minds function extremely fast, moving in many directions with no organization. Somewhere during development, their nervous system got off track. These children function at such a fast pace, which often leaves them struggling to grasp concepts and learn effectively. Unfortunately, this causes developmental issues with socialization, behavioral interactions, academics, speech and more.

Knowing this, other methods of therapy will not be as effective until the nervous system can be regulated and begin functioning properly. Once the misalignments are corrected, therapy treatments will be that much more effective and yield more successful results! At Vero Health Center, our neurologically-based chiropractic care approach helps correct these dysfunctions and offers a natural, effective and medication-free solution to treating ADHD.

Chiropractic care is a natural and effective method for treating many conditions, even those caused by ADHD.
