Your body is designed to adapt through every stage of pregnancy and recovery, but sometimes it needs extra support to move and feel its best.

Dr. Kristen is certified as a Body Ready Method® Pro, which means she helps women prepare their bodies for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery through movement, balance, and alignment.

This method looks at how your body moves, where tension is stored, and how to create stability and strength from within. The goal is to help you move with ease, reduce discomfort, and feel confident and connected to your body through every phase of motherhood.

If you’re pregnant or in your 4th trimester and want to feel more aligned, strong, and supported, click the link in our bio to learn more about Body Ready Method care.

Kids don’t always say, “I’m overstimulated.” Their behavior shows it.

Covering their ears, melting down, or bouncing off the walls are all signs their nervous system is overwhelmed and needs support.

When we recognize these cues early, we can respond with connection instead of correction.

Remember, it’s not a “bad” kid, it’s a stressed nervous system asking for help.

What we call “attention-seeking” is often a nervous system calling out for connection.

Meltdowns, clinginess, and “acting out” aren’t manipulation... they’re stress signals.

Through chiropractic care, we help kids regulate their nervous systems so they can find calm, connection, and cooperation naturally.

If your child shows signs of needing more support, we’d love to help. 📲 Text (952) 402-9355 to schedule an appointment.

When a child struggles with behavior, what we see on the outside rarely tells the whole story.

Meltdowns, impulsivity, and defiance are often signals of a brain that’s working overtime to feel safe and organized. These aren’t “bad behaviors,” they’re messages from a nervous system that’s trying to communicate its needs.

At our office, we look deeper than the surface. Through brain-based care, we support children in calming their nervous system, improving communication between the brain and body, and helping them feel grounded enough to learn, connect, and thrive.

Because when the brain feels safe, everything else begins to change.

If you’ve felt exhausted, unsure, or like nothing seems to help, you’re not alone. We’re here to help your child’s nervous system find balance again.

What we often call “attention-seeking” is really a child’s nervous system asking for connection.

Behaviors like meltdowns, clinginess, or “acting out” are not manipulation. They’re signals that a child is overwhelmed and needs support to regulate.

At Delightful Chiropractic, we help kids calm their nervous systems and build stronger tools to process stress and connection. When the body feels safe, calm and cooperation follow naturally.

If your child shows signs of needing more support, contact our office to learn more about how we can help.

If your child comes home from school and immediately melts down, shuts down, or starts pushing buttons, it doesn’t mean something is wrong with them.

School takes a lot of nervous system energy. New routines, constant transitions, social navigation, and sensory input can fill their “stress bucket” fast. By the time they get home, that bucket overflows.

Home is where they feel safe enough to let it out. What looks like defiance or attitude is often exhaustion, hunger, and a nervous system begging to rest and reset.

What can help:
• Greet them with calm instead of questions
• Offer a snack and quiet time before homework
• Give space for play and movement
• Connect through presence, not correction

They’re not falling apart because they don’t respect you. They’re falling apart because with you, they finally can.

Ever wonder if your kid’s meltdowns, sleep struggles, or tummy troubles could be from nervous system stress? 👀

That’s why so many families in Shakopee choose Delightful Chiropractic. After getting their kiddos adjusted, parents notice:
✨ Better sleep
✨ Happier moods
✨ Easier digestion
✨ More calm days

Your child’s body is built to thrive. Sometimes it just needs a little help to get there.

The vagus nerve is one of the most powerful parts of your child’s body for regulating stress, focus, and connection.

It helps the body shift from a state of stress into calm, supporting digestion, emotional balance, and healthy growth. When it’s functioning well, kids tend to sleep better, focus more easily, and connect more deeply with others.

Here are a few simple ways to support the vagus nerve at home:
• Practice slow, deep breathing together
• Encourage gentle humming or singing
• Try light neck or shoulder stretches

Small, consistent actions can help strengthen this vital nerve and support your child’s overall nervous system health.
