If your child struggles with transitions like leaving the park, starting bedtime, shifting from school to home; it’s rarely because they are trying to be defiant. It often stems from dysregulation within the nervous system. 🧠
Transitions require the nervous system to shift gears. And for some kids, that internal shift takes more time than the schedule allows.
When the nervous system is under strain, even positive changes can feel overwhelming. The body braces, emotions spike, and calming down takes longer than expected.
You might notice:
⏳ Resistance when moving from one activity to another
😣 Big feelings during otherwise normal routines
💭 A need for more reassurance or predictability
💤 Difficulty settling after busy days
Chiropractic care supports a child’s ability to adapt by improving communication between their brain and body. When that system is regulated, transitions feel smoother and kids can move between activities with more ease and confidence.
