Has your child’s doctor recommended an ADHD medication break for the summer? We see this a lot with our patients at North Idaho Spine Clinic! If you feel like this is for you, let us know what questions you have!
👏 ADHD stems from an overactive and dysregulated nervous system, meaning that it’s hard for a child to focus, sit still, and learn because their brain is stuck on the “gas pedal” ready to go go go!! 🚗 Instead, we need to remind the nervous system that it’s okay to rest, digest, regulate, and slow down in order to adapt to the stressors that school sometimes brings. It also encourages focus! That being said, we don’t want to eliminate the gas pedal in its entirety, which is what ADHD medications aim to do. Instead, we want a balance between the gas and brake pedals, AND the goal is for your child’s nervous system to be able to regulate and know when to activate which side!

Pretty cool stuff! 🤓 Give us a call and book an appointment to learn about natural and drug-free help for ADHD and the nervous system!! ♥️

Is your child struggling with anxiety? 😔 You're not alone. Anxiety affects 7.1% of children aged 3-17 years in the US, causing symptoms like nervousness, discomfort in social settings, an inability to connect with peers, and trouble concentrating. 💔 If your child or someone you love is experiencing this, you know it's absolutely heartbreaking.

But what causes childhood anxiety? 🤔 Research points to subluxation, dysautonomia, and vagus nerve dysfunction as key factors contributing to this growing concern. 🔍

Subluxation is the stress and tension that can get stuck within the nervous system, causing an imbalance in the Autonomic Nervous System that heightens the body's stress response and does not allow balance between “fight or flight” and “rest, digest, and regulate” in your child's body. Stress "stuck-on" creates an increase in anxiety and not addressing that stuck-on stress can lead to chronic anxiety for our kiddos.
Dr. Adam is trained to identify and address subluxation and dysautonomia, tracking down the root cause of teen and childhood anxiety and finding ways to help this overactive nervous system!

If you've tried everything from therapy to medication but still feel like you're hitting a wall, it's time to explore a new approach. 👉 Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care targets the root causes of anxiety by addressing imbalances in the nervous system. 🧠 We'd love to help your child get back on track and get to the root cause of their wound-up and worn-out nervous system!

Parents, did you know that excessive screen time is linked to a startling rise in mental health issues among children and teens? 📈 Depression, anxiety, self-harm, and even su***de rates have skyrocketed since the introduction of smartphones and social media. 😔

Here's why 👇
1️⃣ Excessive screen time pulls children away from in-person socializing and real-world experiences crucial for healthy development… so they’re “missing out” on key components of social + emotional development
2️⃣ They’re exposed to harmful and anxiety-inducing content such as bullying, comparison, and all sorts of content that are simply not age-appropriate
3️⃣ Girls are more likely to face self-esteem issues related to social media, while boys are at higher risk for gaming and p**n addiction.

This leads to an overactive and easily stimulated 'Stress + Anxiety Center' of the brain 🧠 like the amygdala, literally “rewiring” the brain for Anxiety, ADHD, and Depression.
But there is hope! 🙌 If you feel your child or teen’s anxiety and tech addiction has gone “past the point of no return” and you can tell their nervous system is entirely overwhelmed, overstimulated, and stuck on sympathetic fight or flight “Anxiety Mode” 📈all the time… and you’d like to learn more about Drug-Free Care Options that could help hit “reset” on your child’s brain and nervous system… give us a call and learn how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care has helped countless teens get out of this sympathetic anxiety storm and back to a more calm, relaxed, regulated life!

Ian is now regulating his emotions like a champ! 🙌🏻 But his emotions got the best of him for a long time.
His mom said it started to affect him to the point where he was getting in trouble at school. He had trouble focusing, interacting with others, being aggressive, and not being able to control his behavior. 😡
Mom said, “Teachers were calling me every single day telling me that he had rough days and he was saying stuff about hurting himself or others. We were suggested to medicate him and we did it for one year but it made things worse. We felt hopeless. We were trying so hard and things were getting worse.” 😖
So when they found out how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic could help, they decided to give it a try.
Ian’s nervous system 🧠 was so dysregulated and stressed that it wasn’t able to adapt to life very well. He was stuck in a gas pedal, fight/flight response that caused him to defensively react to others instead of responding in a healthy way.
Mom said, “When we started with PX Docs, I saw the difference right away, he seemed more relaxed and focused. 🎉 And now, we are definitely happier! We love seeing him enjoying school more, not getting those calls with bad news every day, watching him handle his reactions and not getting frustrated as quickly. He still has some episodes, but nothing compared to a few months ago. We are very thankful." ❤️
Way to go Ian! Seeing your amazing personality shine through is incredible! 😊

Better sleep, better connection, and better communication for Artem! 🎉
Before care, Mom said, “Our biggest challenge was sleep. Prior to finding our local PX Docs office, the longest stretch of sleep our family had in 2.5 years was 2 nights! Our norm was 4+ wakeups a night. We were sleep-deprived and it affected all areas of our daily life. Artem wasn’t able to engage in his therapies, was irritable, and had trouble engaging with us. We as parents were exhausted. We all lived in fight-or-flight mode.
We felt trapped in a cycle. Trying to figure out the perfect wake windows and bedtime felt like a math equation. Everyone would give us suggestions for what we should do, but nothing worked. We would become so excited when we made it to our second night in a row of sleep only to be met with defeat when we didn’t make it to a third.
We had tried sleep training, timing wake windows, strict daytime schedules, sensory activities, early bedtimes, late bedtimes, multiple naps, no naps...nothing worked.” 😩
His incredible parents decided to give Neurologically-Focused Pediatric Chiropractic a try and with consistent care, Artem’s little body finally started being able to hit the brake pedal. 😌
Mom said, “About 2 months into our care plan we made it to our 3rd night of sleep...then a 4th night... then a 5th night...then we started to lose count.” 💤
Now she says, “We feel like we have our toddler back. It is like an entire world opened up to him that he didn’t know existed before. He loves to engage with us, he’s silly and cuddly! He is energetic and able to attend all of his therapies. Because of this, he is taking in so much more. He is now communicating with us and beginning to have spontaneous speech. Artem goes to bed at 6:30 pm every night and we wake him up at 7:00 am every morning. The entire family is able to sleep again.” ❤️
Yay Artem!!!
