- The link between the gut and brain
- Common signs of gut dysfunction in teens
- What we tend to see and work with in practice
- Teenage health trends
- Scan results of someone struggling with food intolerances
- Success story and more resilient scans

October 31, 2022 53. Busy and distracted brains in tweens and teens / / Why it happens and what to do
It's all about the neurology in this episode!
A busy brain is a simple term we use to describe the neurology that may be driving behaviour which appears chaotic, anxious, reactive or frantic. These behaviours are simple reflections of a brain and body trying best to regulate itself and the drivers behind it.
Many parents come to us noticing their child or teenager is...
- Constantly stressed or anxious
- Experiences difficulty with learning and focus
- Struggles with sleep
- Faces constant and chronic immune challenges
- Has slouched and protective posture
Chiropractic is the right place for them!
In our office we measure the busyness or ease within the brain, the capacity for stress, and the level of energy efficiency or exhaustion within the body as a result. From here we can understand the neurology which drives outward behaviour in our teens and tweens.
All emotions and behaviours are normal. Our focus in establishing ease and good communication between the brain and body so that these emotions are their most appropriate and regulated. Supporting our kids brains is essential for optimal health and wellbeing, no matter what they may be experiencing. It is simply the foundation for a body as healthy as can be.
This is why we care for families at Advanced Health Chiropractic.

The long awaited Hips, Head Shape and Home Care episode! This one is extra special as you guys have contributed to it by asking your questions on Instagram. We answer these including front pack recommendations, W-sitters and asymmetric crawling.
The way a baby develops can give us clues into their nervous system function, and more importantly the ease within that system. We know that many parents bring their young babies to see a chiropractor once they start to notice uneven development of the head, or other occurrences such as clicky hips.
We explain exactly what is going on here, why it is happening and why so many parents LOVE bringing their babies to Advanced Health Chiropractic.
On top of that we have our top tips for Tummy time, supporting movement development, crawling help and supporting your baby's neurology to function best.
