Natural Remedies for Your Children

We know your children are precious and the center of your world. So we share simple, natural remedies for your children to keep healthy and happy!

Bug Bites
Mixing a few drops of water with baking soda makes a paste that can quickly relieve the itching for fast and natural relief (not to mention, inexpensive). To prevent bug bites, and/or help them heal, check out Bug-A-Boo! Organic Insect Repellent - safe, natural & effective.

Aches and Pains

Chiropractic care does wonders for children because they have spines too! Did you know adjusting a baby uses the same gentle pressure you would use to test the ripeness of a tomato? Just enough and barely noticeable, yet it allows your child to heal and live a happy life.

Mild Swelling
Cucumbers help reduce slight swelling and can be very soothing for irritations like sunburns and some insect bites. So, keep cooled pieces from the refrigerator on the swollen area.

Sore Throat
Honey and lemon juice is a delicious way to help soothe a sore throat and some say it works better than cough syrup. The lemon helps dry up congestion and honey creates a natural, soothing coat. For children over 1 year, combine a tablespoon of honey and lemon and serve it in small teaspoon size doses.

Colic
Chamomile tea can help calm intestinal muscles and relax your child. Steep it for around 4 minutes and serve once cooled, not giving your child more than 4 ounces (120ml) a day. Also, a chiropractic adjustment may help by restoring proper nervous system control also allowing muscles to relax and the body to heal itself.

Healthy Development
The birth process, growing pains, bumps; bruises and falls can really take a toll on your child’s health and development. So, with the gentlest care, we ensure your child’s nervous system is up and running, just like your child.

Healthy Diet
With so many allergens to food, sensitivities to gluten and dairy, grocery shopping isn’t what it used to be. Make sure to check the labels on your foods and pay attention to your child’s behavior after eating dairy, gluten, nuts, etc. to see if they may have sensitivity. Set your child up for success by avoiding a diet filled with processed foods packed with sugars, salts and preservatives.

We love nothing more than helping your entire family grow healthy and strong. Remember we’re always here to help, answer questions and guide you in your family’s journey towards optimal health.

Top Essential Oils for Anxiety

2/2/2017

Anxiety is a tough battle to face, which makes having a natural solution such as an essential oil blend significant for deterring symptoms of anxiety and stress.
 
The 2014 research by American College of Healthcare Sciences gave 58 hospice patients hand massages once a day for one week with an essential oil blend consisting of equal ratios of Bergamot, Frankincense and Lavender in 1.5 percent dilution with sweet almond oil. All patients who received the aromatherapy hand massage reported less pain and depression. The study concluded that aromatherapy massage with this essential oil blend is more effective for pain and depression management than massage alone.
