Joseph struggled severely with anxiety, autism spectrum disorder, sensory processing disorder, proprioception, poor posture, ataxia, and low muscle tone. He also had digestive issues and constipation that led to bowel blockages. Though they had tried many avenues to help him, nothing seemed to work.
Mom said, “It was frustrating and saddening as a parent to watch Joseph work so hard for years and never achieve the benefits of his hard work. It’s heartbreaking to watch your child lose their confidence in their own abilities.
We tried literally everything from numerous specialists, testing, and therapies. The end result was always a tired sick little boy that the doctors’ and therapists’ best resolutions were medications 💊 that only caused more problems. I knew this wasn’t the answer nor the life I wanted for Joseph.”
So his determined momma relentlessly searched for more hope, answers, and help. That’s when they found a neuro-intensive chiropractic program. They strongly held onto hope that a different approach to his care would lead to different (and much better) results.
When they arrived and got Joseph’s neurological scans, it was like a huge breath of fresh air for mom. She said: “I was amazed and relieved. Everything I have been questioning specialists and therapists about for years but always being dismissed was finally right in front of me. I was excited for the new journey that Joseph was about to start.”
As he started his care, there was no doubt that chiropractic was working for him. Mom said that after just 2 adjustments, she could already see improvement in Joseph. A glimmer of hope that brighter days were ahead.
And as they continued care, Mom started seeing the Joseph she knew was always there. She says, “Joseph is happier, more relaxed, and there is definite improvements in his bowel function and posture. He is engaging more in conversation and he’s also been fully weaned off of his seizure medicine. Joseph is day by day gaining his health back.”
His proprioception, body sense and awareness, and self-confidence continued to improve so much. He even told his mom he wanted to go to the gym and work out. From sitting and being slouched over all day for years on end to hitting the treadmill and lifting weights 🏋🏻♂️ within one week!
Go, Joseph!!! Your hard work is definitely paying off, bud. We can’t wait to hear about your next big wins as your body continues to heal. The best is yet to come!
