This isn’t about cracking backs. And it’s definitely not because something is “wrong.”

Pediatric adjustments are gentle, intentional, and focused on the nervous system; the control center for growth, sleep, focus, and regulation.

Wellness care means supporting kids BEFORE they struggle.
Because a calm, connected nervous system changes everything! 🙌🙌

🧠 Research shows chiropractic adjustments can improve brain function by more than 20%!

That’s because your spine and nervous system work together. When spinal joints move properly, it sends clearer signals to the brain, helping it process information more efficiently. ⚡

Better brain-body communication can mean improved focus, coordination, mood, and even stress response. ✨

Your adjustment isn’t just about pain relief, it’s about optimizing how your entire nervous system performs.

Parents: when verbal directions pile up faster than a child’s nervous system can process them.

What we often label as “not listening,” “defiant,” or “distracted” is often a nervous system that’s overwhelmed and still trying to organize information. Kids don’t process input the same way adults do, especially when stress, fatigue, hunger, or big emotions are involved.

Through a nervous-system-based lens, behavior is communication. Before we correct the behavior, we have to support regulation. Fewer words. Slower pace. More connection.

Save this for the next time you are tempted to repeat yourself and reach out for an appointment for you and your kids! Let’s get both or your nervous systems running optimally. 🛟

Is your baby dealing with reflux? SWIPE ➡️ to learn how chiro care can help.

Before you conjure up an image of those ridiculous Y strap TikTok adjusting videos, we first want to address that PEDIATRIC chiropractic is not even remotely the same.

Make sure to find a chiropractor who has special training, like Dr. Tara at Avid Health and Wellness Chiropractic and binge the videos on our page so you can see what an infant adjustment looks like for yourself. 😉

We would love to help support your baby during this hard time! Call our office 🚨952.215.9411🚨 to schedule their first visit.

We see you.

Migraines can be debilitating and may leave you feeling exhausted. Our team at Avid Health and Wellness Chiropractic wants to support you.

According to chiroeco.com, "A 2017 article, published in the European Journal of Neurology, detailed a 17-month randomized study that included 104 patients who suffered from at least one migraine attack per month.

The study included three groups of patients: one that received standard pharmaceutical treatment for migraines, one that received chiropractic spinal manipulations, and one that received placebo manipulations. The active study period lasted for three months, with a one-month run-up beforehand, and then follow-up periods at three, six, and 12 months afterward.

The number of migraine days significantly ⬇️ for all three groups from baseline to post-treatment, while this effect continued for the chiropractic treatment group through all the follow-up time points.

Furthermore, duration of migraines were significantly more reduced in the chiropractic than in the control pharmaceutical group toward the end of the follow-up period of the study."

Chiropractic care can help ⬇️

⚡️ Restore optimal nerve flow
📉 Reduce muscle tension
🩸 Improve blood circulation

Which hopefully means…
👋🏼 Bye bye migraines

We would love to help you find the underlying issues causing your migraines and offer long-term relief without relying on medications.

December piles up more than most families realize. Noise, lights, parties, sugar, travel, disrupted schedules… kids often power through on short-term adrenaline.

January is the first quiet moment their nervous system gets, and that’s when everything surfaces. It’s not that things suddenly got worse. Their body finally has room to speak.

🌿 10 Specific Benefits of Chiropractic Care

1) Better brain-body communication – Keeps your nervous system clear so messages from the brain reach every cell and organ.

2) Improved stress response – Helps your body shift out of “fight or flight” and into healing mode.

3) Deeper, more restorative sleep – Calms the nervous system so you fall asleep easier and stay asleep longer.

4) More natural energy – When your body isn’t wasting energy compensating for misalignments, you simply have more to give.

5) Improved posture and spinal balance – Reduces strain on the neck, shoulders, and low back — especially for those long days at a desk or carrying kids.

6) Fewer tension headaches and migraines – Eases pressure on the upper neck and improves blood and nerve flow.

7) Better digestion and reduced bloating – Supports the nerves that control your digestive organs.

8) Faster recovery from injury or illness – Keeps your body balanced so it can repair and heal efficiently.

9) Sharper focus and mental clarity – Enhances brain function and concentration by reducing nervous system interference.

10) Greater comfort during pregnancy – Promotes pelvic alignment, relieves back and hip tension, and supports optimal space for baby to grow and position. 🤰

You can’t eliminate stress, but you can help your body adapt, heal, and function the way it was designed to.

When little bodies have big feelings 💛

Emotional regulation is a skill, and for many kids, it’s still developing!
If your child is having frequent meltdowns, trouble calming down, or struggles with sleep and focus after emotional days, it might be a sign their nervous system needs extra support 🧠✨

Gentle, nervous-system–based chiropractic care can help kids process stress better, feel calmer, and adapt more easily to the world around them. 💆‍♀️💫
