"My child's INSiGHT scans are getting better, but I don't see any changes in their symptoms yet. Is this normal?" 🤔

This is one of the most common questions we hear from parents as they get started at Thrive Family Chiro, and we LOVE when they ask it because it means something amazing is happening! 🙌

When your child's nervous system begins healing, the changes happen in a specific sequence. Think of it like renovating a house. 🏠 The electrical and plumbing (nervous system) must be fixed first before the visible cosmetic improvements can happen!

The INSiGHT scans measure those deep neurological improvements weeks or even months before symptoms visibly change. This isn't a sign that care isn't working; it's evidence that healing is happening in the correct order: from the inside out! 🧠
Most of us have been conditioned to think "better" means symptom-free right away. But medications only mask symptoms from the outside-in, while true healing works from the inside-out. This requires more patience, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑠 instead of temporary relief. ⏱️

Is your child showing scan improvements, but their symptoms haven't fully changed yet? This is actually a POSITIVE sign! Their nervous system is establishing new, healthier patterns that will eventually translate to the improvements you're hoping for. 💙

Just because symptoms are gone doesn’t always mean healing is complete… And just because symptoms are still there, doesn’t mean healing isn’t happening. 📣

At Thrive Family Chiropractic, we go beneath the surface to see what’s really going on in your child’s nervous system, and we do that with Neurological INSiGHT Scans. 🧠
These scans help us track true progress, like regulation, balance, and tone, that often begins shifting long before symptoms disappear.

Because healing isn’t about silencing symptoms — it’s about restoring function. 🙌
Want to understand how and why your child might be improving even before the outside shows it? Head to the link in our bio to dive deeper into the science of INSiGHT Scans and what's happening in your child's nervous system! 🤩

Up to 50% of children today suffer from chronic health conditions, 📈 and many of these connect directly to vagus nerve dysfunction.

When your child's vagus nerve isn't functioning properly, their body gets stuck in "fight or flight" mode, unable to switch over to "rest, digest, and heal" functions needed for their development and health. 😅 The vagus nerve influences EVERYTHING from digestion and immunity to emotional regulation and behavior. This explains why you might see your kiddo struggling with a lot of things all at the same time! 😖

The conventional medical system rarely assesses vagus nerve function, instead prescribing different medications for each struggle they are experiencing. Even in the natural health world, practitioners often miss this critical piece, focusing on endless supplements, elimination diets, and therapies that don't get to the root cause of vagus nerve dysfunction. 😫 When we address the root cause first, we see all those other awesome additions work so much better!!

We love taking care of our Thrive Family Chiro fam and digging deep into the root cause with you! ❤️

Read what Hampton’s mom shares about the improvement they have seen in him since starting Nervous System Focused Chiropractic care!

“We came to TFC after noticing that Hampton was favoring one side, which caused a flat spot at 4 months old. He was beginning to get behind on some of motor skills and needed some guidance on how to get him on track. I've noticed so many improvements in his temperament and his ability to develop his motor skills. He's learning so quickly and no longer seems uncomfortable. He's right on time with his motor skills and just started crawling at 8-9 months old.”

Mom also shares that, “Hampton has also had a lot of improvements in his feeding and digestion that I didn't expect to see. He's such a good eater now and nothing seems to upset his stomach.”

“We love the atmosphere at TFC. The staff is always so kind and willing to answer all of my questions. They take individual interest in their patients and our lives. Hampton is always excited when we go to TFC!”

SPOILER ALERT: The answer is the vagus nerve!! 🧠

Our kids really are sicker than ever, and no, it's not just genetics or bad luck! There are serious stressors that our kids are going through... More than any of us ever experienced! It’s early life stress, toxins, traumas... And a nervous system that gets stuck in stress mode, or what we call sympathetic dominance.

Swipe through this carousel post and read the article in our bio for more information on what happens when the vagus nerve isn't functioning the way it should be... AND HOW WE CAN HELP! ❤️

Your labs look normal, but you feel like you're running on empty. You got a great night of sleep, but you wake up exhausted. Many other adults are also caught in this frustrating cycle of unexplained fatigue, weight changes, anxiety, brain fog, and sleep issues.

According to Web MD, 75% to 90% of all doctor's office visits are for stress-related ailments and complaints. 😳 Who knew part of adulting was going to be unexplained fatigue and brain fog? We did not sign up for this!! 😂
Something we also never thought adulting would be about is reading articles on Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) Axis dysfunction, but if you're struggling with fatigue and brain fog, you'll learn something new at the !! The frustrating cycle of unexplained fatigue, weight changes, anxiety, brain fog, and sleep issues could be a dysfunction in your HPA axis, the communication network between your brain and hormonal system. 🧠

At Thrive Family Chiropractic, we use advanced neurological scanning to identify exactly where this dysfunction begins in YOUR body. Our neurologically-focused approach doesn't just cover up the signs or confuse you with 100 things you need to change; it addresses the root cause by restoring proper communication between your brain and hormonal system. If we're going to do this adulting thing, we might as well do it right and with more energy!! 💪

Calling all Moms and Dads!! 📣 And their adrenals! 😜 You deserve to experience the sustained energy needed not just to survive parenting, but to truly enjoy it!!
Research tells us parental burnout affects almost a quarter of parents, creating measurable physiological changes that directly impact energy. But we don't really need the research because we see it every day at Thrive Family Chiro!

Your exhaustion isn't a caffeine deficiency. 😅 Your nervous system is stuck in 'sympathetic dominance', preventing proper rest, recovery, and energy regulation. The vagus nerve (your body's relaxation pathway) becomes suppressed, creating a vicious cycle where your brain and body can't properly communicate about energy needs. This explains why you feel simultaneously anxious AND exhausted... your nervous system is literally working against you!

Exhausted parents in our office show clear signs of nervous system dysregulation! At TFC, we use specialized neurological scans to identify these patterns and create personalized care plans that address the ROOT CAUSE of your exhaustion. DM us if you're ready to start feeling like yourself again!! 💪

Side effects of chiropractic include: less sickness, more energy, and better family time! 🎉

It all started with Mom Denise, who saw drastic changes in her energy, muscle spasms, ad headaches! Before Care she shares “ I was in a lot of back pain, no energy to take care of my kids, a lot of muscle spasms, weakness, major fatigue, headaches, colitis flareups, heartburn, and weak immune system. I could barely get out of bed some days or even go to the store. I felt helpless.” She had tried countless diet changes and homeopathy- which helped the symptoms some but she knew it was not resolving the root cause.

As they learned even more about the benefits of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care, they started adding additional family member to the plan.

Mom said, “They are so family friendly, accommodating to each situation.” ❤️ With consistent care, she says “ I'm able to do more with my kids and not feel so sick, I have more energy.”

This Mom got her life back!! And her family is right on their way too! 🙏
