New contact info for ChiroKiddos

Hello fans of Chiropractic and specific pediatric care!
It's been a while since we've posted anything about ChiroKiddos. In fact the web site was down temporarily and we were in limbo recently (primarily from relocating and starting up GENESIS Chiropractic in NW Arkansas), but now we are back online and ready to serve our clients.

Just as a reminder, ChiroKiddos exist to help Chiropractors teach children and their families about Healthy Spines & Healthy Habits so we can help more Kids have Healthy Lives!

Our new prices should make it easier for doctors to do more marketing and patient education.
The ChiroKiddo dolls have adjustable, palpable spines and are not only fun for kids (of all ages), but are very helpful for doctors.

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.
