The Nervous System

Our nervous system is everything. It is how your brain communicates with all your organs, tissues, and glands.

Every single system within the human body depends on an optimally functioning nervous system.

Getting checked regularly by a chiropractor is absolutely crucial to ensure that your nervous system is functioning at its highest potential!

Seizures and Chiropractic Care

Seizures and Chiropractic... how do they go hand in hand?

The nervous system controls and coordinates ALL organs and structures within the body.

When stress or tension occurs in an area of the spine, interference between the communication of the brain and body can take place, resulting in many physical, neurological, emotional, and mental symptoms.

Neurologically focused chiropractic adjustments can restore function to the brain, brainstem, vagus nerve, and autonomic nervous system allowing the body to heal the way it is designed to!

If you are struggling with seizures, and seeking natural care, come get your nervous system checked by Dr. Randy here at Elevated Life Family Chiropractic!

Teen Athletes and Chiropractic

Teens athletes need personalized chiropractic now more than ever before. Competitive practice and game schedules have never been more intense and the stress to perform has never been higher.

Here are 4 top reasons your teen athlete should be under consistent chiropractic care.

1. Greater body balance and awareness improve strength, coordination, and overall performance.

2. Better ability to adapt to stress allows a teen's body to take on a higher load of training and physical exertion without breaking down. This is especially important for athletes in contact sports such as football, hockey, and basketball.

3. More mobility has been shown to vastly improve speed and strength, as well as significantly reduce the chance of injury.

4. Consistent chiropractic care also increases the rate of recovery, allowing teen athletes to get back on the field faster and perform at higher levels longer.

Gut and Immune System

The health of your gut is crucial for maintaining your overall physical and mental well-being. With 70-80% of the body's immune system residing in the gut, the microbiome is often called the "second brain". The gut can easily become stressed by overuse of antibiotics, diet choices, stress, and other lifestyle factors.

Milestones

Here at Elevated Life Family Chiropractic, we love to talk all things growth and development when it comes to your little one. While these time frames are general, know that your little one may develop earlier, right in the middle, or later than these ranges-- and that is okay! The big thing we want to focus on is that these milestones are being hit in ORDER, rather than getting tied to time frames.
The way we innately develop through milestones is crucial not only for our neurology but as well as cognitive development and behavior!
How can we support optimal growth and development?
Our favorite ways are:
-seeking our nervous system-focused chiropractic care to ensure the nervous system is clear and balanced to ease growth and development.
-make tummy time a priority
- take away walkers, bumbos, and jumpers- they actually do more harm than good!
- get on the floor with your little one and help initiate eye/hand coordination with sensory toys
-allow them to develop on their own without putting them into positions they aren't yet strong enough or ready for!

Pregnancy Squat Variations

During pregnancy, squats are an excellent resistance exercise to maintain strength and range of motion in the hips, glutes, core, and pelvic floor muscles. When performed correctly, squats can help improve posture, and they have the potential to assist with the birthing process. This is such a simple exercise to add to your day. We know you have a lot on your plate. Did you add squats into your daily routine when you were pregnant? Share your experience in the comments!

Insight Scans

Did you know that we live our entire lives through our nervous systems?

Every movement, sensation, emotion, and organ function is under the guidance of the nerves

Here at Elevated Life Family Chiropractic, we perform a neurological assessment on day 1 and throughout your care with us to track progress on your health journey.

The insight scans are made up of the three most critical spinal-neural tests: Heart Rate Variability, Surface EMG, and Thermal Scan which tell us how stress is impacting your overall health and well-being. It precisely detects where and how deep the problem is. Chronic stress and body tension over time can hinder our overall health.

Based on your individualized neurological assessment, Dr. Randy will develop a highly personalized care plan with the goal of moving toward optimal neuro-spinal function.

Raising Healthy Kids Pt. 3

Raising healthy kids

Part 2: Immunity

The best thing you can do for your child’s immune system is to take the necessary steps to KEEP them healthy right from the start!

Building a strong foundation from the start can be crucial to keeping your kiddos healthy and happy!

When it comes to viruses and other sicknesses, our first line of defense is to choose an overall healthy LIFESTYLE! There are many preventive measures we can implement into our everyday lives to keep our kiddo's immune system balanced and functioning at its highest potential! ⁣

- Regular chiropractic adjustments

Did you know that the nervous system has a direct connection to immune function? When the nervous system is clear of any interference, the immune system can regulate properly!

- Try garlic oil vs antibiotics

We recommend trying garlic oil for ear infections rather than going straight to antibiotics! @shoporganicolivia has a great kids' line that we recommend.

- Use essential oils

Thieves, lavender, and oregano are great essential oils to support the immune system. How to use them? 5 drops of each oil diluted and rolled down the spine/on the feet.

- Probiotics for gut health

We recommend @klaire_labs probiotics for littles to optimize the gut-immune system! We carry them in the office if you are local.

- Let fevers do their things

Did you know fevers are a good thing for the body? It’s the way the body gets rid of the nasty bugs circulating! Take an Epsom salt bath and lots of skin-to-skin cuddles to help support the fever naturally!

What are things you are doing to set your kiddo's immune system up for success? Let us know in the comments below!

Optimal Position During Pregnancy

Throughout pregnancy, the growing body tries to adapt to the weight gain, increase of hormones, and postural changes that follow. These postural changes increase the risk of sacral/pelvic imbalance at any given time. The bones of the pelvis and the supportive network of ligaments, tendons, muscles, and associated nerves are all under constant pressure and change. The resulting torsion and inflammation of imbalanced muscles and ligaments may then prevent the baby from comfortably assuming the best possible position for their birthing.

Here at Elevated Life Family Chiropractic, Dr. Randy is Webster Certified through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. Webster technique is defined as "A specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment for pelvic balance during pregnancy allowing for optimal fetal positioning (head down/anterior) for an easier, safer birth. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation and/or SI Joint dysfunction. In so doing, neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is improved.”

Prenatal chiropractic care is essential for optimal positioning during pregnancy, allowing the body to be in a state of ease for a safer and easier birth process.
