Check us out on Instagram and Facebook every Tuesday for quick educational videos on important topics related to neurofunctional chiropractic and raising healthy humans with natural and drug-free alternatives.
Tune in during the month of February to learn more about The Perfect Storm - the sequence of events from pregnancy to early adulthood that is griping our children in the cyclone of sickness, medications, specialist appointments and general ill health. From Autism, sensory processing disorder, ADHD, to anxiety and depression - every Tuesday we will share easy to digest informative videos about how and why these issues are so prevalent. THEN ... at the end of the month we go LIVE with a virtual workshop to present the simple science behind why and how Neurofunctional Chiropractic can support these kiddos and help them out of the "Storm" for good!
This topic is ALWAYS a hot one so share this info with your friends and family and anyone who has kiddos with these diagnosis looking for help, hope and answers!
Health Tip of the Month for Kids Chiropractic: What is The Perfect Storm
* Your child is chronically sick — difficulty nursing, colic, reflux, constipation, ear infections, RSV, croup, chronic colds, allergies, asthma, and chronic autoimmune issues.
* Your child is chronically stressed — autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder, anxiety, depression, focus and learning challenges, and sleep disorders.
While this article is long and dives super deep into exactly what’s causing this rise in chronic illness in our kids, it truly does contain the missing links and answers you’ve long been looking for moms and dads!
To get our kids healthy, nothing matters more than figuring out exactly what caused them to get sick and struggle in the first place.
It’s not always fun and can be highly emotional for us because we want nothing more than for our kids to never struggle. But stay the course with this one parent, we’ll not only provide you answers — but most importantly, the action steps you need to get your child healing, healthy, and happy once again and how kids chiropractic might be your missing piece to the puzzle.
FREE Workshop: Perfect Storm
In just 1-2 generations (not near enough time for genetics to actually change much at all), rates of chronic illness in kids have been rising quickly to absolutely horrendous, troubling levels.
ADHD and Behaviour Problems in kids range from 10-15% an climbing
Anxiety in kids was 11.6%, then nearly doubled to 20.5% due to the pandemic
Depression in kids was 8.5%, thenore than doubled to 25.2% due to the pandemic
Overall mental illness in kids now affects 1 in 6 kids and climbing rapidly
Autism rates have increased 241% since just 2000, now affecting 1 in 44 kids
Chiropractors have been noticing this trend as far back as 2008 and have been identifying the real life environmental factors at play and began to call this THE PERFECT STORM. This is for the moms and dads up late at night scouring the internet, joining the Facebook groups and scheduling appointments with countless specialist, therapists and doctors.
To get our kids healthy, nothing matters more than figuring out exactly what caused them to get sick and struggle in the first place and kids chiropractic might just be the missing link.
Join Pediatric Chiropractor Dr. Tara Sutton for a FREE VIRTUAL workshop full of Answers, Hope and Help! Tuesday February 27th 7:oopm. Registration is required. Please share this with friends and family that may have kiddos in this boat and could use an evening of support.
