Autistic Children Getting Benefits From Costa Mesa Chiropractic

I’m a full-time mom, mother of three, all aging under 7 years - a daughter followed by two sons. Two years ago, my two sons were diagnosed with autism. Chiropractic Care In Costa Mesa

There were specific issues that we must deal in handling our two boys like delay in learning how to speak, lack of facial expressions, and walking on tip-toes. However, we became increasingly more concerned with our youngest child, Toby. It soon became apparent that, while both boys would benefit from chiropractic care, Toby needed extra attention. He lately underwent a spell and was not able to communicate. In addition, he also had several sensory issues. My husband and I were in fear of losing touch with him and he seemed to be slipping away from us.

We sought advice from another couple in our parent group who had the same experience. They were the ones who sent us to Great Life Chiropractic in Costa Mesa, California.

Toby was showing improvement and pulled out of his downward spiral just a few short weeks after he began his consultation with Dr. Candice McCowin, DC. This is a major coup, since many autistic children do not sleep through the night.

We were encouraged by Dr. McCowin to look at making dietary changes along with the weekly chiropractic treatments. Our bookshelves are now filled with gluten-free, wheat-free, dairy-free cookbooks. After studying the nutritional supplements extensively and with the doctor’s advice, we have implemented them on the entire family’s diet aside from Toby’s diet and gained good results.

Toby’s teacher asked us to come for a meeting just a few weeks after beginning treatment with Dr. McCowin. She asked us what kinds of changes had taken place at home, what we were doing differently, and let us know that she had seen positive results. She showed us Toby’s recent class work and compared it to the previous works he had before beginning the treatments. We were impressed with the results although they were many subtle differences.
