On this episode of Soaring Child, we had a conversation with Dr. Brian Stenzler. Brian is a Chiropractic Doctor and author. He is also co-founder of Dream Wellness and has operated numerous wellness centers in New York and California where he has helped thousands of families achieve their health and wellness goals.
There are many gems in this episode regarding chiropractic care and ADHD, but the main ideas are how negative stressors deeply impact the nervous system, how chiropractic care helps regulate those stressors in the spine which is where the nervous system flows, SEMG scans to see where the misalignment in your child\u2019s spine may be, and more. We also discuss what is the appropriate age to start chiropractic care and the 5 essential keys to living a long and healthy life.
Brian is truly a masterful chiropractor who has taken his craft to the next level. Spine misalignments can have detrimental effects on our health, so it\u2019s very important to get care for your child as soon as possible if they have been diagnosed with ADHD or other mental disorders. If you want to learn more about the keys to healing the spine and nervous system, be sure to pick up his book Dream Wellness: The 5 Keys of Raising Kids with a Lifetime of Physical and Mental Health, available anywhere books are sold!

Memorable quotes:
\u201cA child would need to be realigned when they\u2019re not in alignment. So if it\u2019s at birth during the birthing process, that\u2019s when it should happen. Or if it\u2019s three months after birth, that\u2019s when it should happen.\u201d
\u201cAnd that\u2019s why it\u2019s good to have a chiropractor in your health team. A kid is not going to tell you \u2018hey my neck hurts\u2019, or \u2018I have a headache\u2019. A baby is not going to be able to communicate that.\u201d
\u201cWe live our lives in the nervous system, everyone of us. It doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re a day old or a hundred years old. Every organ, every muscle, every gland, every tissue, every single cell in the body knows exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to do it because the brain tells it so.\u201d
\u201cWe always let the parent know we\u2019re not here to treat any disease or condition. We\u2019re looking to see how the nervous system is functioning.\u201d
\u201cAs a chiropractor, the way that I practice is I never base where I was going to adjust based on the symptom, I did it based on what I found to be out of adjustment.\u201d
\u201cMore times than not with ADHD, it\u2019s almost always the atlas bone, the top bone of the neck and the axis below it. those are almost always the ones involved\u2026 and sometimes just by adjusting the atlas, the rest of the spine will follow.\u201d
\u201cSo the course of care is going to be determined by the severity of the subluxation pattern, how long have they been out of adjustment for, what is their lifestyle like, what is their commitment\u2026 we have some kids that may need 2 or 3 times a week, some kids that need once a week\u2026 all depends on what it takes to reset that nervous system.\u201d
\u201cOne of my mentors used to talk about rehabituation rather than rehabilitation\u2026 we want to create new habits for not only lifestyle but for the muscles to settle into their current place.\u201d
