Abstract/Notes

Objective: This paper presents a case study of improved ADHD symptomatology for a child undergoing chiropractic care.

Clinical Features: A 5-year-old male presented to a chiropractic office for examination and history for the detection of vertebral subluxation. Thermal scanning and sEMG were utilized and it was determined that vertebral subluxations were present in conjunction with spinal tension, postural faults, and reduced range of motion in the cervical spine.

Intervention and Outcomes: The patient received a total of 54 adjustments in the upper cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral regions over six months of care. Thermography and sEMG scans were performed at the initial visit and at two re-assessments. Patient progress was also monitored subjectively as the mother noted improvements in behavior. Instrumentation revealed improvement in symmetry and pattern.

Conclusions: The results of this case study reveal an overall positive outcome of ADHD symptomatology following chiropractic care.
