Chiropractic Care Can Help Improve Behavior in Kids
As a child is growing and developing, it is very important that they get adequate sleep, maintain a proper diet, get enough exercise, and so on. Lack of sleep and a poor diet are often a major contributors to other issues in kids, such as ADHD, stunted brain growth, developmental issues, and behavioral problems. Other underlying health issues can contribute to child’s poor behavior and their inability to get adequate sleep, and vice versa.
What most people don’t realize is that a Lithia Springs chiropractor, like Dr. Ronnie Bolar at Vital Life Chiropractic, can provide care that gets to the root of any child’s problem, particularly when it comes to sleep disturbances and behavioral issues.
Is Medication the Right Answer?
It’s not uncommon for many parents to seek out specialized medication in order to alleviate behavioral issues. However, the problem with medication as a solution to those problems is that medication is only a temporary fix or a mask for the problem and it doesn’t get to the root of the issue. Behavior-altering medications also can change the personality of your children and affect other parts of their lives, such as their sleep habits and their appetite.
Since sleep and behavior in kids often go hand-in-hand, it’s important that parents find a natural and effective way for their children to get enough sleep and simultaneously alleviate other behavioral issues. This is where Lithia Springs chiropractic care comes into play as a natural, non-invasive solution for sleep and behavioral issues.

Most of the time, tingling or numbness in the extremities isn’t as serious as you think. In fact, the cause often lies within the spine. If this is the case, a Lithia Springs chiropractor can address the issue at hand to reduce or completely get rid of these uncomfortable sensations.

Visits to the chiropractor for back and neck pain are common. Once you have found relief from pain, you may wish to no longer schedule chiropractic appointments. But principled chiropractors, like Dr. Ronnie at Vital Life Chiropractic, know that time and repetition with consistent chiropractic care will benefit you and your health both now and well into the future. Chiropractic care is more than just a quick fix. Pain or injury may come about at any time due to spinal misalignments, but the actual misalignment and function problem didn’t arise overnight. It has taken years for your body to get to where it is, and it won’t be corrected immediately with just one chiropractic adjustment. Chiropractic adjustments are more than just a health fad that boasts quick yet temporary relief. Chiropractic care focuses on the central nervous system and the spine and aims to restore proper spinal health over time, leading to more effective function of the central nervous system and the rest of the body. The long-term effects of chiropractic care bring about real restoration to your body functions and true correction of any issues or problems. It will provide relief from multiple ailments and most pains, but it is a long-term and permanent solution rather than a quick fix and short, temporary relief. At Vital Life Chiropractic, Dr. Ronnie Bolar recognizes your desire to live a happy, healthy lifestyle. With the long-term benefits of chiropractic care, you can do just that.
