Chiropractic Helps with Austism

Everyone should be checked for nervous system interference. No one should have to live life at anything less than 100 percent.

A 10-year-old boy began care in our office a couple of years ago. His mother reported frequent ear infections and many falls due to hyperactivity. He also exhibited rocking and blurting out sounds, as well as difficulty concentrating and frequent temper tantrums. The boy was diagnosed with Autism at age 3. He was prescribed Adderall and Risperdal. We began giving him specific chiropractic adjustments.

After the second adjustment, his mom reported his rocking had stopped almost 100 percent. After the eighth adjustment, he began speaking in sentences, and every adjustment thereafter showed many improvements. He was able to do things such as get his first haircut at a salon and go shopping. After five months of care, the mother began weaning him off the Risperdal.

Even though this boy is not completely “cured” of the Autism diagnoses, his life and the lives of his family has improved tremendously through Chiropractic adjustments. The family was able to travel during the summer for the first time ever. Overall, he is able to function better because his nervous system is beginning to be have less interference.
