Building Stronger, Healthier Kids—One Spine at a Time
Most parents schedule regular checkups for their child’s teeth, vision, and development.
But what about their spine and nervous system?

The spine protects the most vital system in your child’s body—the nervous system.
And when it’s out of alignment, it can interfere with how they grow, heal, and thrive.

The Physical Stress Kids Face
From the moment they’re born, children encounter physical stress:

Birth trauma (even natural deliveries can strain the spine)

Falls during toddler years

Heavy backpacks

Poor posture from screens

Sports injuries and rough play

Long periods of sitting at school

These events may seem small—but over time, they can lead to spinal misalignments (subluxations) that disrupt nerve function and health.

Signs Your Child May Have a Spinal Issue
Chiropractic problems in children don’t always show up as “back pain.”
Instead, you might notice:

Headaches or frequent colds

Digestive issues or constipation

Sleep troubles or restlessness

One shoulder or hip higher than the other

“W-sitting,” clumsy walking, or uneven shoe wear

ADHD-like symptoms or mood imbalance

These signs may indicate nerve interference—caused by spinal misalignment—affecting the way their body functions.

Why a Clear Spine Is the Key to a Healthy, Functioning Body
Most people think of chiropractic care as a solution for back or neck pain.
But the truth is much bigger.

At the heart of chiropractic is your nervous system—the master control system of your entire body. And spinal misalignments can disrupt it in ways you might not expect.

Brain-to-Body Communication: The System That Runs Everything
Your brain is constantly sending messages to every organ, cell, and tissue in your body.
These messages travel down your spinal cord and out through spinal nerves—telling your lungs how to breathe, your stomach how to digest, and your muscles how to move.

This flow of information is only possible when your spine is properly aligned and free of interference.

⚠️ When Misalignments Disrupt the Message
A spinal misalignment—known as a subluxation—can put pressure on the nerves exiting the spine.
Even a small misalignment can cause big issues:

Numbness, tingling, or pain

Muscle weakness or tightness

Poor digestion or low energy

Inflammation, tension, or headaches

Slower healing and immune response

Why? Because nerve signals are being distorted or blocked—like trying to talk over static on a phone line.

You may be feeling symptoms now. Or your body could be compensating… until it can’t anymore.

How Gonstead Chiropractic Clears the Interference
At Koca Chiropractic, we use the Gonstead System—a scientific, thorough method that pinpoints where subluxations are causing nerve interference.

We use:

X-rays to visualize spinal structure and alignment

Thermography (Nervoscope) to detect nerve pressure and inflammation

Palpation and motion analysis to feel for restricted joints and swelling

Then we make specific, gentle adjustments to correct the subluxation, restoring normal nerve function and letting your body heal from within.

When Nerve Flow is Restored, Healing Happens
Imagine your body functioning at 100% again.
No guesswork. No patching symptoms. Just your brain and body communicating like they were designed to.

Chiropractic adjustments don’t “fix” you—they help your body fix itself by restoring normal nerve flow.

If you’re tired of managing symptoms and want to uncover the true source, it’s time to check your spine.

Let’s find out what’s blocking your body—and clear the way for healing.

Why Your Posture May Be Costing You More Than You Think
Look around any coffee shop, office, or living room—and you’ll notice it.
Heads tilted forward, shoulders slumped, and eyes locked on screens.

It’s called Text Neck—and it’s becoming a modern epidemic.

What is Text Neck & Forward Head Posture?
Forward Head Posture (FHP) happens when your head shifts forward from its natural alignment with your shoulders. For every inch your head moves forward, the pressure on your neck doubles.

This often starts with:

Excessive screen time

Poor ergonomics

Sedentary habits

Over time, this unnatural positioning strains muscles, compresses joints, and pulls your spine out of alignment.

The Real Damage It Causes
Text Neck isn’t just a posture problem. It’s a health problem.

Here’s how it affects you:

Neck and Shoulder Pain – Your muscles overwork to hold your head up

Headaches – Misalignment in the cervical spine contributes to tension and migraines

Nerve Interference – Misalignments put pressure on spinal nerves, disrupting communication between the brain and body

Breathing and Fatigue – Forward posture can reduce lung capacity by up to 30%, leaving you tired and sluggish

It’s not just how you look—it’s how you function.

How Chiropractic Can Help
Chiropractors trained in the Gonstead Technique take this condition seriously. It’s not about a quick crack. It’s about structural correction.

Using precise analysis—like spinal X-rays, posture exams, and nerve scans—Gonstead chiropractors identify exactly where the problem starts.

Then, with specific adjustments, they help restore normal alignment so the body can:

Relieve pressure

Improve posture

Optimize nerve flow

Help you feel (and look) better

It’s Easier to Fix Now Than Later
The earlier FHP is caught, the easier it is to correct. Waiting too long can lead to:

Disc degeneration

Joint arthritis

Chronic pain patterns

Permanent postural collapse

Have you ever heard the term subluxation and wondered what it actually means—or why it matters for your health?

Let’s break it down.

What is a Subluxation?
In chiropractic, a subluxation is a misalignment of one or more spinal vertebrae that disrupts normal nerve function. It’s not just a “bone out of place”—it’s a structural and neurological problem that can compromise how your body functions.

Think of your spine as a circuit board. Each vertebra protects the spinal cord and allows nerves to send messages from your brain to every organ, muscle, and tissue. When one of those vertebrae shifts even slightly out of alignment, it can irritate or compress the nearby nerve. That’s a subluxation.

⚠️ How a Subluxation Affects Your Health
A subluxation isn’t always painful—but it always matters.

Here’s why:

Nerve Interference: Your body is designed to heal and regulate itself through nerve signals. Subluxations interfere with this communication.

Pain and Tension: Muscle tightness, inflammation, and irritation can build up around the misaligned joint.

Reduced Function: Over time, subluxations can lead to decreased mobility, posture problems, fatigue, and organ dysfunction.

Hidden Damage: Like a cavity, subluxations can cause damage before symptoms ever appear.

Bottom line? If your nervous system can’t operate at 100%, neither can you.

‍⚕️ How the Gonstead Chiropractor Detects Subluxation
At our clinic, we use the Gonstead System—widely considered the gold standard in chiropractic analysis and correction.

Gonstead chiropractors don’t guess. They assess with precision.

We use:

Visualization to spot postural distortion

Palpation to feel for swelling, tightness, or tenderness

Instrumentation (Nervoscope) to measure temperature differences along the spine

X-rays to see exact vertebral position and alignment

This thorough process allows us to detect and correct the root cause, not just the symptoms.

Why Regular Chiropractic Checks Matter
Life constantly stresses your spine—whether it’s sitting, lifting, working out, or scrolling your phone.

Subluxations can happen gradually or suddenly, and they often go unnoticed… until your body starts compensating or breaking down.

That’s why regular chiropractic checks are essential—to keep your spine clear, your nerves communicating, and your body healing.

You get your teeth cleaned every 6 months. What about your spine?
