Our Intensive care plans are designed specifically for pediatric patients struggling with “Perfect Storm” challenges related to prenatal distress, birth intervention and trauma, traumatic brain injuries, and chronic digestive or immune challenges.
who is this for?Tackling Tough Cases
If your child has been diagnosed (or you suspect) with chronic neurological conditions such as epilepsy, autism, apraxia, cerebral palsy, ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, Lymes, POTS, PANS, dysautonomia, asthma, allergies, chronic constipation, or any other chronic health challenge and you simply are NOT seeing the results you want with the traditional medical approach, our Intensive Program is for you.
how does it work?Redefining Health-Care
The #1 challenge facing most families looking to help their children heal is that they are simply overwhelmed. Each doctor, therapist, and provider on the team has their own unique specialty, but none of them focus on the “whole” child or communicate and connect well with other providers and specialties.
Here’s where we differ: we work with the one major system that controls and regulates every other system of the body — the central and autonomic nervous system.
By focusing each and every adjustment on rebalancing and restoring function to this system, we immediately start to see changes in core pediatric health and brain development functions such as sleep, digestion, immune function, and motor (movement) tone and function.
Once we see these “basic” neurological functions get back online, we can then get to work on “advanced” functions such as sensory processing, emotional regulation, social development, speech, and cognition.
Insight Neurological ScansGetting The Full Picture
While many children in the Perfect Storm category have had a medical neurological exam, those traditionally only look for obvious pathology and diagnosis and do not actually measure and determine true neurological function, autonomic and vagal tone, or the real key to pediatric brain development: neuromuscular tone, symmetry, and pattern.
These scans are the foundational element of our Intensive care plans, allowing us to fully customize and personalize the adjustments for your child, as well as continuously track and monitor change and improvement as care progresses!
WHAt to expectSpecific, NeuroTonal Adjustments 2x Per Day
Each adjustment is designed to find and release the built up tension and stress stuck in the sympathetic nervous system. This stimulates and activates the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system, activating the “growth and development” mode of the autonomic system and ultimately restoring balance.
We refer to this as NeuroTonal Adjusting because the tone of the neuromuscular and motor system is absolutely crucial to a child’s health in all areas, neurological, immune, respiratory, gut health, and more.
We work with a “Less is More” approach at all times. Our adjustments are made in a gentle and easy way, paired with a more frequent adjusting schedule of 2x per day consistently for at least 2 weeks. Each adjustment builds upon the last, and sets up the success of the next.
The expertise of our Instensive Doctor Team is really in the “sequencing and pairing” of the adjustments, which sets this approach apart from general pediatric chiropractic care! The Insight Scans are an important element of being able set up that sequence and order of adjusting, and are performed each day following the 2nd adjustment!

A child’s ability to learn, develop, and heal is truly unparalleled. Unfortunately, so many Perfect Storm kids get stuck into the chronic cycle of stress and toxicity so early, that by the time symptoms arise or a diagnosis is made, their autonomic nervous system has been out of balance for a long time.
Check out this amazing video by Dr. Tony Ebel, the creator of the “Perfect Storm”. In this episode, Dr. Tony dives deep into the sequence of events early in a child's life that can lead to chronic illness, sensory issues, autism, ADHD, and more.

After the conclusion of an Intensive care plan, we work together with parents for on-going care. If a family is not local to us, we then likely will have patients return for another intensive care programs again every 3-6 months in order to continue progress and support neurological restoration!
-
As a husband and wife team, Drs. Kirsten and Jared work together to offer unified and holistic care. Since the schedule of 2x per day is required, adjustments will be provided by both docs, and they will be in constant communication as to the exact care plan and specifics all the way through!

Unfortunately no. Insurance companies do not consider subluxation-focused care as “medically-necessary,” because it is not a medical treatment. Medical care focuses on treatment of symptoms, where as subluxation-centered chiropractic is a cause-based approach focused on actual long-term healing and restoration. However, many HSA and Flex-type accounts work perfectly for this type of care and our team will work with you in every way in this department!
