ADHD

Chiropractic Care And Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

ADHD is a central nervous system disorder. Chiropractic care restores optimal function of the nervous system and offers a non-drug and non-invasive treatment alternative for ADHD patients that targets the underlying problems, not just symptoms.

Musculoskeletal imbalance will create imbalance of brain activity. ADHD affects children and adults of all ages. Spinal adjustments, particularly of the upper cervical region can have a positive effect on patients’ mental clarity, their ability to focus as well as process information.

Children have stress and tension in the nervous system caused by childhood occurrences like birth, falls, sports and behavior problems may arise. Chiropractic adjustments can calm the nervous system with the end result being that the child behaves and functions at a higher level.

Nutrition and dietary habits also has been shown to be highly instrumental managing ADHD. Acupuncture is another treatment option to calm the system.
