Here’s how to help their body stay regulated on the go without adding more work to your travel day:

✨ 1. Give their spine room to move.
Long car seats and airplane posture create stiff backs and tight hips. Let them:
• sit “criss-cross”
• stand and stretch at the gate
• hang from a chair or climb a little

Movement = regulation. Stillness = stress.

✨ 2. Keep snacks simple and steady.
Blood sugar swings = nervous system overload.
Skip the bright, sugary foods before travel and stick to:
• cheese + crackers
• fruit + protein
• jerky + applesauce pouches

No extremes. Just balance.

✨ 3. Bring comfort for sensory safety.
Not entertainment — security.
• noise-canceling headphones
• familiar blanket or stuffed “friend”
• chewable necklace or gum if they’re sensory seekers

When the senses feel safe, the nervous system settles.

✨ 4. Keep expectations human.
Kids don’t have adult stress tolerance.
They’re learning how to regulate… their body needs guidance, not punishment when it’s overwhelmed. Calm parents create calmer kids.

✨ 5. Get them checked before and after travel.
Travel increases tension in the spine and overstimulates the nervous system. Gentle pediatric adjustments help the body adapt, settle, and recover faster — especially for sensory-sensitive kids.

Our behaviors reflect our nervous system, not our wishes. 😉 Help the body first, and the day goes differently. ✨

Travel days get easier when we treat regulation as a family rhythm, not a reaction.
Here’s to calm bodies, full bellies, and kids who feel safe in their own skin wherever they go.

We’ve spent 5 years running neurological INSiGHT scans in our office, and the same thing shows up again and again: the nervous system holds stress long before symptoms ever appear.

Pain is never the first sign.
It’s simply the alarm.

When the spine and nervous system stay under too much tension, the body starts to struggle with things like sleep, digestion, focus, mood, immunity, and energy. That’s why we scan every practice member — adults, pregnant moms, and kids — so we can see the real story underneath the surface and address the root cause instead of chasing symptoms.

As BJ Palmer reminded us, the body works from above-down and inside-out. When we clear interference, the body can finally do what it was designed to do: heal.

If you’re ready to see what your nervous system has been carrying, we’re here to help.
Comment SCAN and we’ll walk you through next steps.

The body listens to the signals we send. Chest breathing pushes us into stress mode, while belly breathing helps guide us back toward calm.

And if the holiday season starts stacking up on your nervous system, this is one of the easiest places to start supporting it again. ✨

Rasheen came to us dealing with constant low back pain that shot into his legs. He figured it was just something he’d have to live with. A lot of people feel that way—when the nerves stay under pressure long enough, the body starts to believe that tension is “normal.”

Six months into steady chiropractic adjustments, the pressure eased, the pain backed off, and he’s back in the gym doing the things he loves again. As BJ Palmer said, the body doesn’t need help—just no interference.

We’re grateful to walk alongside practice members like Rasheen as their quality of life comes back online.
If you’ve been telling yourself “this is just how it is,” it may be time to take a look at what your nervous system has been trying to say.

“I could barely pick my daughter up out of her crib…”

That was Andrea’s reality when she started care with us three years ago — a mom in pain, just trying to keep up with her little ones.

Fast forward to today? She’s thriving, nearly pain-free, and says she finally feels like she has her life back.

At Chase Life, we’re not just chasing pain relief. We’re chasing freedom. Function.

And moments like this — where healing makes parenting feel possible again.

Been feeling like your body’s holding you back? You don’t have to live that way.

Comment “START” and we’ll personally help you book your first visit.

She’s not licensed (yet), but her presence brings comfort, trust, and lots of smiles.

Amy came for the adjustment, but the dynamite duo of Dr. Chase & Dr. Charlotte made it a whole experience. 💜

“Why would a chiropractor adjust your feet?”

Great question—and Dr. Abby breaks it down like this: Your feet are designed to move. They’re meant to absorb shock and adapt with every step.

But when that motion is lost—whether from old injuries, flat arches, or just years of wear and tear— that stress doesn’t just stay in your feet.

It travels up into your knees, hips, and low back.
That’s why we don’t just focus on the spine here. We focus on the whole body—from the ground up.

If someone’s struggling with ongoing back pain, hip tightness, or even balance issues… it’s not uncommon to find the root cause starting all the way down in the feet.

This is why we check and adjust extremities, too—
because when one part of the system is off, the rest has to compensate.
