ChiroKiddos is online now. Go check it out! We are still a few days away from it being fully functional, but at least you can see the Atlas and Axis characters. My wife has a design patent pending on these figures. Their unique characteristics include: palpable AND adjustable spine, plus they talk too. Kids love to play with them. Doctors will love the new patients generated by active use of ChiroKiddos.
Purchasing on the web will be available by the last week of March. We have a special introductory price on the Atlas-Axis Combo, $20.00 off if you buy the pair.
These 15 inch plush figures are a one-of-kind pediatric education aide. Chiropractors are waiting expectantly for this product to hit the market. Student interest at my college is building this week as they see posters, travel mugs, bags, and other promo items. We are anticipating a grand launch at the Palmer Destination Success event.
As I contemplate the upcoming holiday...the earliest date for the Easter since 1913...I think it would be appropriate to read through one of the Gospel accounts of the Passion of Christ during this holy week. I'd suggest starting with Matthew 26-28 found here: Biblegateway (a great resource for searching the Bible). If you want more info. just drop me an email. bigidea@chirokiddos.com
I'll write again soon...look for a continuing series about Healthy Kids.
Until then, have a wonderful Friday and Resurrection Sunday!

Healthy Spines + Healthy Habits = Healthy Kids
-- ChiroKiddos exists to help Chiropractors bring the BIG IDEA of health and wellness to children and their families. We believe that every child deserves to live a full and healthy life.
-- Since the brain and nerves control every function of the body (immune system, endocrine and hormone activity, tissue growth, repair and wound healing, strength and coordination, learning and memory development, special senses, plus all the internal organ systems), it is imperative to maintain a healthy nervous system. This is especially important during the rapid growth periods children experience...from birth through the teenage years.
-- The spinal column houses and protects the brain stem and spinal cord. When the spine is not properly aligned it will often impair nervous system function, leading to reduced nerve signals, loss of health, diminished immune function, and decreased ability to adapt to stress. Traumas, toxins, poor posture, emotional stress, and "just being a kid" can injure the supporting tissues of the spine allowing misalignments to occur. A child often develops a vertebral subluxation complex (VSC) without the parents even knowing it.
-- The VSC is commonly understood as a structural misalignment and/or malfunction of the spine which compromises the flow of nerve impulses and reduces the body's innate ability to adapt and function properly. The physiologic effects of a VSC (disruption of homeostasis) often go unnoticed for years until the long term neural deficit contributes to pain or some other known pathology.
-- Normal playing, simple falls, and even birth trauma all can cause vertebral subluxation. The resultant nerve interference diminishes the body's ability to adapt to its environment. This subluxation process can explain the lingering health problems, infections, allergies, deficits, diseases, and other named disorders many children suffer from every day.
-- The good news is that VSC is a reversible condition! Each child needs to have his spine checked for subluxation by a Doctor of Chiropractic. Even if the child appears normal and healthy, Chiropractors are the only health care practitioners in the world trained to detect and remove vertebral subluxation by adjusting the spine. True health and wellness is achievable if the body can function as designed, free of nerve interference.
-- I invite you to join with ChiroKiddos by helping us promote "Healthy Kids" so this generation of children can live up to their maximum potential. We need to teach them "Healthy Habits" (avoid all drugs & toxins, eat lots of fruit & veggies, and exercise regularly). We also need to provide chiropractic care and "Healthy Spines" for all ages, especially children. Read more in my Healthy Kids blog posts.
