  • Decoding Language Delays
    Language development and delays......We need to be clinical detectives in the neurodevelopmental realm, so we don't just chase symptoms. The only way to know what is appropriate and to get a brain-based perspective is to first ask this big, commonly missed question!

  • Don't Be Afraid To Do This
    Traditions are fun to continue on in our own families, but we need to remember that some of these traditions or rituals might not be appropriate for where our kids are RIGHT NOW.
    Keep in the back of your mind that increasing processing demand with lots of traditions, tasks, and activities may, in fact, increase stress or create more deflective behaviors. It's OK to create your own traditions that are more appropriate for your family! You might even find you like it better that way!

  • This only takes 10 seconds!
    Quick tip for your brain-based exam!
    Just like it's important to have subluxation findings on your clinical exam, it's also really important to have brain-based markers to measure how we are impacting the developing brain!
    You don't have to completely change the way you practice! This will only take you about 10 extra seconds. This can help you be even MORE principled in chiropractic and answer the tough questions!

  • Holiday Treats
    This holiday brain-based tip is a HOT one and you should start talking about it now!
    Ok, you're not going to like me for this one...but it's really important! You might be feeling inclined to spoil the kids with extra-sugary treats and special meals outside of the regular diet. Remember, what we put into our bodies directly impacts our health and can even increase our stress levels. Don't fall into this trap! There are ways to make this still a special time if you make just a few modifications.
