Yesterday a 1st grade practice member had a HORRIBLE day because her crush "is not in love" with her. Good thing she was laying face down on the table because it was hard for us all to hold in laughs. 🤭

Well, we can't help her with that... but she IS rockin' it in school and that's why she is coming to see us!

Kids say the darndest things in our office. 🤸‍♀️☺️

If illnesses in cooler months are rough for your kiddo, now is the time to start creating health and resilience in their neuro-immune system.

We've helped families significantly decrease or eliminate ER/doctor visits and missed school days in the winter months. It takes time to heal and build these reserves in the nervous system, and that's why now is a good time to begin.

Imagine your child starting to get sick... and to your surprise, they recover quicker and easier than ever before! That's how a healthy immune system works. Kids WILL get sick - we help them move through it quicker and easier!

"(My daughter) is more confident and is more resilient to illness."

"I am recovering quicker when I get a typical flare or when I am sick. I stopped taking a few of my meds and so far so good."

"(My daughter's) illnesses were less severe as far as her reaction than they usually are for her (lower fever, normal energy)."

Nicholas is a gifted, very smart 6-year-old, but he was struggling in a big way. His emotions felt too big for his little body to handle, and he often didn’t have the capacity to cope.

His mom and grandma were worn out and searching for answers.

His scans showed us exactly why—his system was exhausted, running on empty, and stuck in constant stress. When a child’s nervous system is in that state, it makes it nearly impossible for them to regulate emotions, stay calm, or adapt to everyday challenges.

For Nicholas, that looked like getting physically aggressive when he was upset, not being able to sit for a haircut, and even being asked to leave Kindergarten the year before.

His mom was giving everything she had, but nothing seemed to help.

Fast forward to now—he’s about three-quarters of the way through his care plan, and things look completely different.

Nicholas sat through his very first haircut without leaving the chair. When he lost a favorite toy, instead of melting down, he retraced his steps, tried on his own, and then calmly asked for help.

And this fall, he started 1st grade and is thriving—he loves school, he’s making friends, and his family finally feels like they can breathe again.

What may sound like small wins from the outside are absolutely life-changing for Nicholas and his family. Every week brings a new celebration.

This is what happens when the nervous system has a chance to reset and recharge. Dr. Lindsay’s care gave Nicholas the capacity his body and brain had been missing—and that’s when everything started to change.

For Nicholas’ family, the change has been life-giving. When the nervous system has space to reset, kids can show up as the best version of themselves—and families finally get to see their child shine.

This is why Dr. Lindsay focuses so deeply on the nervous system. When stress patterns are released and the body can recharge, everything from emotions to learning to relationships begins to shift.

Fun fact: Micah actually worked at Dr. Lindsay's dad's business back in 2010! We didn't know this until after she started here! We just love working with Micah 🤩😄

You know that feeling when someone just gets what you’re going through — without you even saying a word?

That’s exactly what Dr. Lindsay does every day here at ACLC. She can tell when your nervous system is tired, stressed, or fighting off something just by feeling your back.

She might say things like,

➡️ “Your system feels tired today, have you been sleeping well?”

➡️ “I can feel your body working through an immune response, have you been sick?”

➡️ "You're feeling very energized!"

And almost every time, she’s spot on.

That’s because your spine and nervous system talk to her hands. They give clues about what’s happening inside — before you even realize it yourself.

It’s not magic. It’s the incredible power of the nervous system, and years of experience tuning in to its messages.

At ACLC, we don’t just treat symptoms — we listen to what your body is telling us, so we can help support it exactly where it needs it most.

📝 From our Practice Members:

"I think you are in tune with your patients and are great at what you do to help others!"

"Very intuitive care."

"Dr. Mack follows her intuition and offers me new perspectives on issues I bring to her."

"Dr. Mack can pinpoint exact areas of pain and tension without me saying anything. She is very attuned to the state my body is in. She has a great rapport with patients and listens to needs and makes treatment decisions around what I can handle."

Curious about neuro-spinal stress and its impact on your body and kids? 🤔

Neuro-spinal stress is like static in the body’s communication network, affecting how the nervous system regulates everything from emotions to immunity, sensory responses, motor skills, and more.

When the nervous system is overwhelmed, it struggles to adapt, and that can show up in all sorts of ways – from meltdowns and sensory issues to digestive problems and immune struggles.

So, what can cause this stress for you and your family?

Here are four big categories:
🔹 Physical: Stressful pregnancies, birth trauma, C-sections, stressful pregnancies or deliveries, bumps, or falls
🔹 Emotional: Adoption, loss of a loved one, scary or chaotic life events, school struggles, or social stress.
🔹 Chemical: Antibiotics, artificial dyes and preservatives, poor diet, medications, environmental toxins, or even mold exposure.
🔹 Mental: Busy lifestyles, screen overload, the pressure to always be “on,” or not enough time to rest and recharge.

💡 While some stress is unavoidable, the real issue is when the nervous system can’t adapt and regulate properly. Babies and kids are especially vulnerable, and early neuro-spinal stress can impact their development, behavior, and overall health.

Our care targets this stress, helping your child’s body clear the static so they can connect, grow, and thrive. 🌱

And for adults? The same stressors can wear you down, so make sure you’re getting the care you need, too! ✨

After experiencing a scary reaction to a medication that sent her blood pressure soaring, one of our practice members told us..

"I thought, what can I do to take care of myself? I know! Go see Dr. Mack!"

She knew that supporting her nervous system could help her body recover from the physical stress and the mental panic that came with it.

Sometimes things come up unexpectedly, and in those moments an extra adjustment can be exactly what your body needs to process the stress and reset.

Another practice member recently shared with Dr. Lindsay that she was having a rough time after stopping an allergy medication. By working with her neuro-detox pathways, we were able to give her body the extra support it needed—and she left feeling so much better.

That’s why it’s always helpful to let Dr. Lindsay know if a big stressor has come up—whether it’s physical stress or emotional overwhelm—so she can focus on the areas your body needs the most support and help you move through it with more ease.

Your nervous system is always working hard for you, and giving it a little extra care during stressful or unexpected situations can make all the difference. 🌿✨

📱 Screens, schedules, and stress all impact the nervous system.

Dr. Lindsay is big on creating a calm home environment — and it makes a difference. In her house, that looks like:

✨ No screens during the week

✨ Movie nights on the weekends instead of endless video games or YouTube

✨ Keeping the family schedule simple (one sport/league at a time)

These are IDEAS. Choose what YOUR family needs to create the vibes you want at home.

Here’s why this matters: when kids are overloaded with screens or commitments, their nervous system is constantly stimulated. That means they don’t get the downtime needed to regulate, recharge, and process their day. Over time, this can show up as meltdowns, poor sleep, trouble focusing, or feeling “on edge.”

Pairing adjustments with calm, screen-light routines at home gives their nervous system the best chance to thrive.

So many of us know what it’s like to say “yes” when every part of us is screaming “no.” A dysregulated nervous system makes it harder to speak up, set boundaries, and protect our own energy.

That’s why nervous system-focused care can feel so empowering—it helps you shift out of constant survival mode so you can respond with calm, clarity, and intention.

A lot of our practice members begin setting healthier boundaries after beginning care.

Here are some things they've shared:

"I have my own identity now! That is HUGE. For so long I tried to minimize my own needs and desires, to please others… but not anymore! And I no longer blame myself for the issues of others."

"I've had a few times someone wanted me to do things I didn't want to do and I kindly declined without excuses for why. Big win."

"(I'm) standing up for myself & my boundaries."

"(I've) noticed better ability to identify unhealthy family relationships and draw better boundaries."

"Energetically I carry myself differently now and am able to set boundaries w/family members."
