  Speaker 1: Balance Life Chiropractic. We're here with doctor Harley. Hello, doctor Harley,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Hey John. We talked about babies last week, so today
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: we're going to talk about kiddos because that's like the
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: next thing, you know.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're kind of going through the life cycles. You know,
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: we were at pregnancy.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we had.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Little babies, newborns, don't wanna talk about you know, I
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: made a little bit older kids four or five and
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: so something that a lot of parents are starting to
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: deal with more and more. And you might see this
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: online or TikTok or like you know, the ADHD, neurodivergent,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: that kind of stuff, and as a parent, you might
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: be like, how do I you know, what's going on
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: with my kid? How what can I do to help them?
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: You know, we go to doctors or we go to specialists,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: and maybe we're months out. What are some options that
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: you know, you as a parent can do to help
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: your child maybe if you're waiting for that next doctor's appointment.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: And there are some things that can be done in
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: the chiropractic world that can actually help with that, can't they.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's something that a lot of parents are
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: surprised by like, I didn't know chiropractic it helped me
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: or my child. You know, we can talk about adults
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: too with ADHD, just help with ADHD or add or
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: just kind of that extra sensory hypersensitivity that we're seeing
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: more and more.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: And part of this is again when you think about
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the fact that your body is filled with you know,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: there's all these pathways that need to communicate. If something's
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: pinched off and it's not communicating, well, there are some issues.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: It will happen, right, and it makes it even harder,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: you know, for whatever reason. You know, people that are
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: neurodiversion or ADHD, you know, their brain, their nervous system
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: kind of reacts in a different way. They are more
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: easily overstimulated. You know, I saw this a lot. My
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: sister has really bad ADHD and did as a kid.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: She went through all of these treatments, she did play therapy,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: she did all these things that really helped make a difference,
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: but she still would kind of get set off really easily.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: And if you're you know, if your child kind of
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: goes through this, you're not in your head along it
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: yet And yeah, well what what can we see that
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: can help. Well, chiropractical is starting to push more that
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: go to a chiropractor. It can really make a differ
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: because we're helping calm down the nervous.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: System, get everything communicating properly right.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: You know, if we can remove some of that nerve interference,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: restore proper messaging between the systems, you know, that's going
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: to help take out a lot of work helping to
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: calm the system down. So when we have big emotions
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: or you know, big changes, you know with kids, they're
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: able to handle those a little bit better. Sure, they're
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: still going to have, you know, some meltdowns, they're still
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: going to get over stimulated, but we're seeing it's not
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: as big of a you know, major blow up, or
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: it's not as often.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: So less severe and maybe less often. Right, if somebody
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: listening is going, okay, I've got a lot of questions
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: on this. This is probably way more than we can
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: go into in a quick little podcast. But they could
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: reach out and talk to you, couldn't.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: They definitely, And even if you just have questions you're like,
• 2:48
