Teenagers

Chiropractic Care For Teenagers in Wellington

The teenage years are a pivotal time of rapid physical, neurological, and hormonal development, second only to early childhood. Layered on top of this natural growth are modern stressors like academic pressures, social dynamics, increased device use, heavy backpacks, and demanding sports schedules. Together, these factors create a perfect storm of challenges that today’s teens must navigate, often leaving them overwhelmed both physically and emotionally.

More teenagers than ever are feeling anxious, stressed, and exhausted, with studies showing that 1 in 3 teens are struggling with anxiety. As stress from earlier childhood builds and is combined with the growing pressures of teenage life, their nervous systems become overwhelmed. At first, they stay stuck in "fight or flight" mode, but over time, as their nervous system becomes too worn out to keep up, many teens slip into a state of neurological exhaustion, where their bodies and minds simply can’t keep pace anymore.

Through neurologically focused chiropractic adjustments and advanced INSiGHT Scans, we’re able to detect and correct these imbalances, addressing the root causes of your child’s struggles. By restoring optimal function to the autonomic and central nervous systems—and activating the vagus nerve—we help shift the body back into a state of healing, growth, and regulation.
