We may have missed Tuesday… but better late than never 😉

Welcome to our Wednesday Wisdom this week!

In today’s video, we’re showing an example of a child with a positive startle reflex. This primitive reflex is meant to integrate in early infancy, but when it remains active, it can continue to affect the nervous system.

A retained startle reflex can contribute to heightened sensitivity, difficulty with emotional regulation, and an overactive “fight or flight” response.

Take a look at the video to see what a positive response can look like.

If you’ve noticed similar patterns in your child, it may be worth exploring further support. Early awareness can make a big difference.

Drop your questions below or send us a message — we’re always happy to help.

It’s time for our Tuesday Tip — Primitive Reflexes

Primitive reflexes are automatic movement patterns we’re born with that should naturally integrate as the brain develops. When they don’t fully integrate, they can continue to influence posture, coordination, attention, and learning in both children and adults.

Today we’re highlighting the Symmetric Tonic Neck Reflex (STNR). This reflex helps babies transition into crawling, but sometimes it remains active beyond early development.

Tip: Follow along with the exercises demonstrated in today’s video to begin supporting proper integration. Consistency matters — practicing these movements regularly can help encourage better neurological organization.

To learn more about primitive reflexes and how we assess and support neurological development, check out our website: https://northlakeschiropractic.com

It’s Time for Our Tuesday Tip — Supporting Gut Health

Your gut plays a bigger role in your health than many people realize. It influences digestion, immune function, inflammation levels, nutrient absorption, and even brain health and mood. When your gut microbiome is out of balance, you may notice symptoms like bloating, fatigue, irregular digestion, skin concerns, or difficulty maintaining energy.

This month, we’re highlighting Strengtia, our Supplement of the Month — a targeted probiotic designed to support a healthy balance of beneficial bacteria and overall gut function. It is 10% off for the month of February!

Tip: Supporting your gut daily matters. Quality probiotics, along with nutrition and lifestyle choices, can help create a stronger foundation for whole-body health.

If you’re unsure whether a probiotic is right for you or want guidance on improving gut health, drop your questions in the comments or send us a message for a future Tuesday Tip.

You may have seen us talk about this test before — but here’s a behind-the-scenes look at a patient completing a VNG (Videonystagmography) evaluation in our office 👀🧠

A VNG allows us to objectively measure how the eyes respond to visual and positional stimuli. Why does that matter? Because your eye movements are directly connected to the balance centers of the brain and inner ear. When there’s miscommunication in that system, it can show up as:

• Vertigo or dizziness
• Balance issues
• Motion sensitivity
• Brain fog
• Nausea
• Feeling “off” or unsteady

During this test, specialized goggles track tiny eye movements that can’t be seen with the naked eye. This gives us valuable data about how the vestibular and neurological systems are functioning — helping us pinpoint where support is needed instead of guessing.

We use this information to guide personalized functional neurology care aimed at improving stability, coordination, and overall nervous system performance.

If you’ve been struggling with dizziness or balance concerns, you don’t have to just live with it — answers may start with proper testing.

📞 Call or message us to learn more or schedule an evaluation with our team at North Lakes Chiropractic.

It’s Time for Our Tuesday Tip – Laser Therapy in Functional Neurology

One of the advanced tools we use in functional neurology is low-level laser therapy. This isn’t about heating tissue — it’s about using light to stimulate the nervous system and support brain function at a cellular level.

Laser therapy can help by:
• Improving cellular energy (ATP production)
• Supporting nerve signaling and brain communication
• Reducing inflammation
• Promoting neuroplasticity and healing

In functional neurology, laser is applied strategically to specific areas of the brain and nervous system to help activate underperforming pathways and support more balanced neurological function.

💡 Tip: If you’re dealing with neurological symptoms such as brain fog, balance issues, post-concussion symptoms, headaches, or sensory changes, laser therapy may be an important part of your care plan.

Targeted stimulation helps the brain heal more efficiently.

Tuesday Tip: Primitive Reflexes & Your Child’s Development

Did you know that babies are born with special reflexes designed to help them survive and develop — like sucking, grasping, and turning their head when touched? These are called primitive reflexes, and they’re meant to “turn off” as the brain matures.
When these reflexes don’t fully integrate, they can quietly interfere with things like:

Focus & attention
Coordination & balance
Reading & learning
Emotional regulation
Posture and muscle tone

Many children (and even adults!) struggle with these without anyone realizing what’s really going on.

✨ We’ve talked about primitive reflexes before, but this week we’ll be demonstrating simple exercises that help integrate them — gentle movements that tell the brain it’s safe to mature and move forward.
If you’ve ever noticed your child:
Gets tired easily when reading or writing
Is clumsy or avoids movement
Has trouble sitting still
Seems anxious or easily overwhelmed
…it may be worth looking deeper.

📞 If you think your child may have retained primitive reflexes, reach out to us. We’d love to help you get answers and a plan that supports their nervous system and development.

It’s Time for Our Tuesday Tip – When Estrogen Becomes the Enemy

Estrogen is an important hormone — but when it’s out of balance, it can start working against you instead of for you. Symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, mood changes, brain fog, headaches, and irregular cycles are often signs of estrogen dominance, not simply “too little” or “too much” estrogen.

🎙️ Dr. Kolby addressed this on his podcast, breaking down how excess or poorly metabolized estrogen can impact both brain and body health.

Here at the clinic, Dr. Dajana works with a majority of hormone dysfunction, helping patients uncover the root causes of hormone imbalance through proper testing and individualized care — not guesswork.

💡 Tip: Start paying attention to your hormones. If you’re experiencing persistent symptoms, testing and guidance matter. Hormone balance is about how your body processes and clears hormones — not just what’s on the surface.

Have questions about estrogen, hormones, or testing? Drop them in the comments or send us a message for a future Tuesday Tip!
