"I knew since day one that something was wrong with him. I journaled about every food, every transition, every situation trying to find a pattern. We tried medication after medication. The doctors eventually just told me that the only option was Alexian brothers, a behavioral health facility. You guys were my last resort. We were lost. We felt isolated. We were desperate. And man am I glad we went for it- he's a completely different kid and we are forever grateful."

When Annie first came to us, she was having meltdowns and crying fits constantly. Everything from a basic grocery store trip to a train ride down to the city was absolutely impossible because she would scream on the top of her lungs for hours at a time. Any time there was overstimulation or frustration of any kind it would end in a meltdown. After a few months of consistent, specific, neurological-based care, Annie’s family began to see glimpses of hope. The extreme highs and lows began to level out a bit- more good days than bad ones. Meltdowns became shorter, then disappeared.

When this kiddo came to us at 7 weeks old, he was in the 0.03 percentile on the growth charts. He was boarder line “failure to thrive” and days from being hospitalized. He had colic, reflux, gas pains, was arched and stiff all the time, and cried constantly. Within a couple of weeks of care, this kid was a different baby. In fact, after his very FIRST adjustment, mom called us in tears because her baby finally slept for a 4 hour stretch! Something he had never done before. Mom and dad have continued to bring him and his sister to us for wellness care- calling us at the first sign of a sniffle or a rough night of sleep!

Back in January, we got to meet Koen. Back then, we didn't get to see this radiant and connected smile. We didn't get as much as a glance or even a word. He had so much social anxiety that being around people he didn't know, crippled him. He was so locked into a mode of fight or flight and protection that interacting with others, speaking to others, playing with others, was all nonexistent. It got to a point where mom knew she needed to get serious help for her son and the doctors were talking about a possible diagnosis of autism. Mom wasn't okay with this. She knew that her sweet boy was somewhere in there and he just needed to break out. She started speech and OT, and also decided she would take a swing in the dark at chiropractic care. To say this little guy is NOT stuck, struggling, or sick anymore is an understatement!! He is absolutely thriving.
