Parenting a child with neurological challenges can be overwhelming, frustrating, and isolating. Many parents struggle to find a doctor who listens and understands what they’re going through and to find effective solutions that align with their values and beliefs without resorting to medications or therapies that come with unwanted side effects.

That’s where our workshop comes in. Taught by local chiropractor Dr. Michael Vanella, this workshop will help you uncover the truth about the “Perfect Storm” our children are put through in today’s medical system and toxic, stressful world and empower you with the knowledge, tools, and drug-free strategies to support your child’s unique needs and help them thrive!

Dear Parents,

What if all of the common neurological challenges our kids are facing today first started brewing many years ago? What if kids don't really "grow out of" colic, constipation, chronic ear infections, and other early childhood challenges like you were told? What if there has been a "Perfect Storm 🌪" brewing with their nervous system ever since they were born 👶 ?

In this workshop you'll learn:

  1. Learn how the true root cause of these challenges goes beyond genetics, gut health, motor tone and coordination, diet changes, and detoxes and really resides within the central and autonomic nervous system

  2. Incorporate natural, drug-free approaches to help your child’s nervous system relax, unwind, and get back on track developmentally

  3. Build a network of support and community with other parents and providers who understand your journey and will help you navigate through the storm

If you've tried it all and your child is still in a tough spot, this workshop is for you!

Come have your hope restored, and your questions answered, and get the drug-free 💊 help you've been searching for!

Join Us Thursday, October 23rd @ 6:30PM!

Is There Hope? We Think So!

Meet Callan

"We knew something was off with our toddler since infancy. He struggled with oral ties, reflux, and colic that only seemed to grow with him. We visited several different professionals but never received the answers or progress we were hoping for."

Callan’s receptive language was right on track, but he had trouble getting the words out. His brain knew what he wanted to say, but the signals weren’t making it to the muscles needed for speech. He was also waking multiple times a night, often upset or crying, and couldn’t settle unless Dad was by his side.

Subluxations were interfering with how his brain and body communicated, making things harder than they needed to be. But after just a few months of consistent, neurologically-focused care, Callan’s nervous system began to regulate — and big changes started happening. 🙌

Now, mom says "For the first time in two years, I finally feel like I can relax because we’ve seen such huge improvements. It feels like we have a different child. He is happier, sleeping better, talking more, and able to manage his emotions in ways we never thought possible. We gladly drive all the way from North Carolina every week to see Dr. Vanella, and it is absolutely worth it. Our treatment at Vanella Chiropractic has truly changed our lives. Highly recommend! "

We are so happy for Callan and his family. Watching these transformations is exactly why we do what we do — because when the nervous system functions better, everything else can too. 💙

Meet Jer

“𝐈 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐦𝐲 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬”


Jer is our wonderful patient who is on the autism spectrum. When he first came to Vanella Chiropractic, you could tell his nervous system was stuck in fight-or-flight — his body was on high alert and struggling to feel safe in the world around him.

Tantrums were common with any new activity, instruction, or demand. His mom knew something had to change — that his nervous system needed help regulating so he could better handle those overwhelming moments. In the beginning, Jer would cling to his mom, need a fidget toy, and often made sounds that showed his discomfort.

But now, after just a couple of months of nervous system-based chiropractic care, Jer walks calmly into the office and heads straight to the adjusting table — most of the time without even needing a fidget toy! He even turns around to help Dr. Vanella during his adjustment — which is the cutest thing to see. 💙🥰

Mom has reported less anxiety, better emotional regulation, and fewer meltdowns during transitions & changes. She says "Jer knows when a service is not helping. He has great memory and persistence. If there is a place that he does not feel we need to go to, he will whine and even fight to get back into the car. That has not been an issue when coming to Vanella Chiropractic. Thank you!"
