If you've ever felt the weight of your child's uncontrollable meltdowns, their inability to cope with the simplest changes in routine, or their constant state of exhaustion and emotional turmoil, then you understand the heartbreak of witnessing sensory issues in action. It's a relentless battle that leaves both you and your child feeling drained and overwhelmed.
This blog is for parents like us, struggling to navigate the challenges of raising a child with sensory issues. Together, let's explore the intricate world of sensory processing and how it shapes every aspect of our children's lives. We'll dive into the prevalence and impact of sensory issues, debunking the myth that they're just a phase kids outgrow. Instead, we'll uncover the harsh reality that these challenges persist and profoundly affect our children's daily lives.

Through Tierney's story, we'll shed light on the monumental hurdles children like ours face daily and how this holistic approach can offer relief where others fall short.
Sensory issues aren't anomalies; they're pervasive, affecting nearly one in six children and often overlooked by medical professionals. Understanding the two main categories – hypersensitivity and hyposensitivity – is crucial in tailoring support strategies to our children's unique needs.
We know the toll sensory issues take on every aspect of our children's lives, from education to social interactions and overall well-being. As Neurologically-Focused Chiropractors, we're here to acknowledge your child's uniqueness and craft personalized care plans to help them navigate their sensory challenges.
But what are the root causes of these sensory struggles? From birth trauma to environmental triggers, a perfect storm of factors can disrupt our children's nervous systems, leading to issues like subluxation and vagus nerve dysfunction. Our comprehensive approach doesn't seek to cure sensory issues but addresses their core, activating the parasympathetic side of the nervous system to better process sensory input.
