Aiden's Journey to Regulation
”We are amazed at how much he has improved at every re-exam!”
What Aiden’s Custom Journey Included
Step 1 - Assess.
When Aiden started care with Dr. Rachel in May 2022, his parents were looking for help with Aiden’s emotional regulation, sensory overload, and speech/eating issues. During his initial visit we talked a lot about the current issues Aiden was facing, his past health history and birth history, as well as other lifestyle factors that were impacting his day to day function. We then proceeded with a detailed exam to determine where his body needed more support.
Step 2 - Analyze.
During Aiden’s exam, we took an in depth look at his neurological function, as well as his breathing patterns, fascial tension, and movement patterns. These exams revealed dysfunction within his nervous system and tension within his body that was restricting him from living life to his highest potential!
Step 3 - Heal.
Aiden’s individualized care plan focused on gentle, specific adjustments. We also worked on reducing stress and tension within his body to optimize his health and improve his range of motion, especially within his neck and jaw/tongue muscles. Aiden’s parents were very consistent with his care plan and worked a lot on regulation at home with tips and tools recommended by Dr. Rachel. Aiden’s chiropractic care was supported by co-management with speech therapy and it was amazing to see how the combination of the two improved his overall function!
Step 4 - Maintain.
Aiden has transitioned to lifestyle care and his parents have continued to see improvements in his overall health and function. They’ve been able to do more as a family and experience more of what life has to offer because Aiden’s emotional and sensory regulation has improved so much! Their overall stress levels as a family have since diminished because of chiropractic care!
“We have been seeing Dr. Rachel for over a year now and WOW! My son has come a LONG way since starting chiropractic care. He’s basically a different little boy now, but in such an amazing way. Aiden is now able to regulate his emotions on his own and his emotional breakdowns are next to none. His many sensory issues have greatly improved. He enjoys bath time now and is even okay getting splashed! We were recently able to take a family trip to the Dells, which was not a possibility before!
We are always amazed at how much he has improved at every re-exam. We are so thankful for chiropractic care and are most thankful to have met Dr. Rachel!”
