ADHD & Chiropractic

Supporting Children with ADHD Through Natural Care

At Golden Family Chiropractic, we understand that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. While ADHD is recognized as a neurological condition by the medical community, many families seek natural approaches to support their children's health and development. Pediatric chiropractic care offers one such pathway by helping the nervous system function optimally.

Understanding the Signs:

Parents, teachers, and healthcare providers often notice these common patterns:

  • Challenges with attention and focus

  • Difficulty remaining still or seated

  • Struggles with impulse control

  • Increased sensitivity to environmental stimuli

  • Frequent physical movement and fidgeting

The Natural Approach:

A well-functioning nervous system creates the foundation for better processing and regulation. When the nervous system can relax and operate efficiently, it supports your child's natural growth and development. We believe in supporting your child's health through multiple natural approaches:

Consider these supportive changes:

  • Choose natural, organic foods without artificial additives

  • Remove common food dyes and preservatives

  • Explore potential sensitivities to foods like dairy or gluten

  • Reduce refined sugar and artificial sweeteners

  • Create a chemical-free home environment

The Chiropractic Difference

Rather than viewing hyperactivity as a medication deficiency, we recognize it often relates to an overstimulated nervous system. Through careful examination, we frequently find that restricted motion in the spine, particularly in the neck, contributes to this overstimulation. Our approach focuses on gentle, specific adjustments that help restore proper nervous system function.

At Golden Family Chiropractic, we focus on supporting your child's body's natural ability to heal and regulate itself. While we don't treat ADHD directly, our pediatric chiropractic care aims to optimize nervous system function, which may help with many of the challenges these children face.

  • Why They Love Us

    I was looking for an individualized and family vibe type chiropractor, and Golden Family has been all of the above and beyond. Dr. Lauren really gets to know her patients and tailors each adjustment to the changing demands of our bodies. And once my son was born, I have routinely been taking him for adjustments. Dr. Lauren is not only familiar with the bodily needs of pregnant women, but also young children. I wanted to find a chiropractor for the long term, and Golden Family Chiropractor is definitely just that!

    Prenatal chiropractic has made a world of difference during my pregnancy! Growing a baby takes a toll on your body, but weekly adjustments have helped so much with pain management! Dr. Lauren is attentive to your needs and concerns, and is gentle when giving an adjustment! Brooke handles the scheduling at the front desk and she is wonderful as well! Golden Family Chiropractic is all around a great practice, and a positive space, especially for expecting mothers.

    My neighbor recommended Dr. Lauren when I was searching for a more holistic treatment for my infant daughter. We feel so blessed to have found her. Our daughter was in the NICU for 5 weeks with medical issues, as well as hip dysplasia and had a stiff neck/preferred one side. We noticed fairly quickly after weekly treatments that her moments became more fluid, seemed more comfortable and overall flexibility improved tremendously. Bonus points, we also noticed an increase in her immunity! With 2 big siblings at home that bring home all the germs, we’ve been amazed at how little she’s gotten sick during this time of the year! Highly recommend Dr. Lauren & Dr. Lane. Sierra is also wonderful support staff!

    I have always enjoyed the benefits of chiropractic care but when I found out I was pregnant, I wanted to go to someone that specializes in prenatal care. Lauren Golden & her practice came HIGHLY recommend! She didn’t disappoint. From the first day, I felt right at home. Her office is clean, well decorated and feels welcoming. Lauren Golden is so warm, friendly, nurturing and kind and her staff are just as wonderful as she is! I saw her throughout my entire pregnancy. All the back pain was gone, and I was so much more comfortable thanks to her! I’ve continued coming to her since giving birth! I even bring my daughter in for adjustments now! I love that we can share a family package! Can’t recommend Golden Family Chiropractic enough! 10/10 stars!!

    My initial prenatal appointment was AMAZING! I was running late and they still made me feel welcomed! I didn’t feel rushed or ignored at all!! Dr. Golden was extremely nice and informative! She coached me through the entire session! I felt very relaxed! I previously had a bad experience with a chiropractor, but she has definable changed my mind and perspective!

    Dr. Lauren came recommended to me by my doulas in the beginning of my pregnancy. From the second you walk in her office, you are made to feel welcomed with a warm greeting by Sierra at the front desk! I began seeing Dr. Lauren regularly until the delivery of my baby and now we both go to get adjusted. Dr. Lauren takes the time to listen to you and find out what your body needs at each adjustment. If you're looking for a chiropractor for your pregnancy and postpartum, I 10/10 recommend Dr. Lauren!
