Chiropractic Care and ADHD

I just came across a great case study demonstrating the connection between the misaligned structure of the spine and the function of the nervous system. To summarize the study, a 5 year old who had been diagnosed with ADHD and unsuccessfully treated with Ritalin, Adderall and Haldol presented to a chiropractor. Upon x-ray examination it was revealed that the curve of the 5 year old's neck was reversed from what it should have been. After 27 visits with the chiropractor, the young boy's pediatrician stated that he no longer displayed behaviors associated with ADHD. Follow up x-rays, after 35 visits over 8 weeks, show that the normal curve was restored to the neck.

This is a great example of the kind of results that chiropractors see when we care for children. Imagine the difference that chiropractic care has made in the life of that little boy and his family.

Here is the article for you to read if you like.
