Halloween is supposed to be fun — not followed by sugar crashes, mood swings, and sickness.

The truth is, most kids aren’t just reacting to the candy… their nervous systems are already overloaded, and sugar is just the final straw.

At VWC, we help regulate those systems. Gentle, neurologically focused chiropractic care helps calm overstimulated brains, support the immune system, and restore balance — so kids can enjoy the season without paying the price after.

If your kiddo is prone to crashes or constant colds after Halloween… you’re not alone.

We’re here to help. 🎃🧠

🤧 Flu season is here… but fear doesn’t have to be.

Every year around this time, the questions start rolling in:
• “What should I give my kids?”
• “Do I need to worry about the flu?”
• “Everyone around us is getting sick — how do I protect my family?”

Here’s what I want you to know — as a dad, and as a doctor:

Getting sick is not a failure.
It’s a response.
And more often than not, it’s your body telling you something’s off.

Sometimes it’s a deficiency — in sleep, in nutrients, in nervous system balance.
Other times, it’s just stress — the kind that wears your body down little by little.

At Vital Wellness Center, we don’t chase symptoms.
We support the system that keeps everything working in the first place:
The nervous system.

And when that system is clear, calm, and communicating properly?
Your immune system is stronger.
Your recovery is faster.
And your kids aren’t constantly cycling through illness after illness.

I don’t just talk about this stuff — I live it with my own family.
We support their nervous systems through regular adjustments, lots of movement, and simple, consistent routines that prioritize rest and resilience.

If you’re feeling run down or unsure this season, you’re not alone.
And you’re not helpless.

We’re here to help you build health from the inside out — so you don’t have to fear every sneeze, sniffle, or season.

It’s not the costumes…
It’s the sugar crashes, the meltdowns, and the sicknesses that show up a week later.

This time of year, everyone’s focused on “germs.”
But in my experience — as a dad and a neurologically-focused chiropractor — the real threat is sugar.

It overstimulates the nervous system.
It disrupts the gut microbiome.
And it primes kids’ bodies to spiral — physically and emotionally.

But here’s the good news…
There is a superpower that protects kids from this sugar storm.

✅ Gentle, specific chiropractic adjustments
✅ Reconnect the brain and gut
✅ Regulate the nervous system
✅ Strengthen the immune response
✅ And bring kids back to balance

Halloween doesn’t have to mean chaos.
There’s a better way to support your child’s body — before the crash hits.

📖 She didn’t used to like books.
In fact, she used to avoid them altogether.

Reading out loud brought tears.
Letters looked scrambled.
Homework ended in frustration — for her and her parents.

But it wasn’t because she wasn’t trying.
It wasn’t because she wasn’t smart.
And it certainly wasn’t because she “wasn’t paying attention.”

It was because her brain was too overwhelmed to process what was in front of her.

At Vital Wellness Center, this is what we help families uncover.
Not with blame. Not with labels.
But with curiosity, care, and a nervous system-first approach.

And slowly…
• The meltdowns became moments of calm.
• The “I can’t” turned into “Let me try again.”
• And the books? They became her safe place.

We don’t promise overnight change.
But we do promise to look deeper — to find what’s holding your child back, and help you move forward with clarity and hope.

Because moments like this one — where she picks up a book and reads aloud with confidence — they mean everything. ❤️

Certainty comes from practice.
We’ve been at this a long time — walking alongside families, helping little ones thrive, and showing parents there’s another way. One rooted in clarity, trust, and gentle, purpose-filled care.

These photos are from years ago… but the mission hasn’t changed a bit.
When you’ve helped hundreds of babies and stood with families through every stage — it’s not just experience.
It’s conviction.

💚 We’re here when you’re ready.

“They told me my child had ADHD… but no one could tell me why.”

That’s the moment everything changes for a parent.

At Vital Wellness Center, we don’t just hand out labels.
We dig deeper — with real scans, real stories, and real hope.

That’s exactly why I created this FREE ADHD eBook.

📘 It’s a simple, visual guide that explains:
• Why so many kids are misdiagnosed
• What we see on our Insight Scans
• How chiropractic can calm the nervous system

If your child is struggling with focus, meltdowns, restlessness, or sensory overwhelm…
You’re not alone — and you deserve clarity.

Grab your free copy today. It could be the missing piece no one else is talking about.

That might sound like a strange analogy, but it’s exactly how I explain the connection between stress, the nervous system, and birth.

If a mother’s nervous system is stuck in fight-or-flight — the body won’t feel safe enough to let go.
And when that happens, labor stalls… delivery gets harder… and recovery feels even more overwhelming.

We’ve worked with so many moms, just like Danielle, who were stressed, tense, and unsure how birth would go — until they found a way to calm their nervous system from the inside out.

Pregnancy, delivery, postpartum…
All of it goes smoother when your body feels safe.

That’s what chiropractic does best.
We don’t force anything — we just help the system work the way it was designed to.

🎃🍬 It’s Sugar Season… Let’s Talk About It
—from Dr. Foss

As a dad and a chiropractor, I totally get it — Halloween kicks off the sugar season. Between candy, parties, and everything in between, it’s everywhere.

But over the years, I’ve noticed something interesting — both in practice and in my own home:

🧠 Too much sugar = more meltdowns, more impulsivity, and more emotional ups and downs.

Why? Because sugar doesn’t just spike blood sugar… it spikes the nervous system too.

In kids who are already dealing with stress, focus issues, or emotional reactivity, that extra sugar can be like throwing gas on a fire. 🔥

At our house, we don’t ban sugar entirely — but we do keep it limited. And every time we rein it in, we see huge improvements in:

• Calmer mornings
• Less impulsivity
• Better sleep
• And even stronger immune systems this time of year

So no, this post isn’t about guilt or fear. It’s about awareness. ✨

If your child struggles with attention, regulation, or emotional outbursts — sugar might be a missing piece. And so is the nervous system.

At VWC, we help parents understand what’s happening beneath the surface — and give them real tools to support calm, focused kids (yes, even during candy season).

👻 Here’s to a happy, healthy Halloween — with just the right amount of sweet.

✨ Their first days matter most.
From the moment your baby enters the world, their nervous system begins adapting, growing, and learning how to regulate.

At Vital Wellness Center, we start early — with gentle, calming, purposeful care that supports healthy development right from the beginning.

We’ve seen firsthand how early scans and chiropractic adjustments can make a powerful difference — helping with sleep, digestion, calmness, and connection.

If you’re wondering whether chiropractic is safe for newborns…
👉 It’s one of the gentlest, most natural steps a parent can take.

Dr. Foss didn’t hesitate:
“That kids don’t have chemical imbalances.”

Too many children are being medicated without ever being tested, scanned, or truly understood.
The system is quick to label, but slow to ask why a child is struggling.

👉 The truth is, many of these challenges stem from a stressed, dysregulated nervous system — not a broken brain or chemical imbalance.

At Vital Wellness Center, we take a different approach.
We use Insight Scans to find the real root cause.
No pokes. No pressure. Just clarity.
