Brain & Nervous System Care for the Whole Family
Whatever phase of life you are in, maintaining a balanced and healthy brain and nervous system is essential for healing, growth, and living your fullest, healthiest life.
Babies & Toddlers
A baby’s first few years are a time of rapid growth, change, and development — all orchestrated by one powerful system: the brain and nervous system. From reflexes and digestion to sleep and emotional regulation, nearly everything your baby experiences is processed and guided by their developing brain.
At Meraki Chiropractic & Functional Neurology, we focus on assessing and supporting healthy brain and nervous system development right from the start. Early check-ups allow us to identify and gently correct imbalances before they become long-term issues, helping your baby thrive in all areas of life.
When your baby’s brain is well-connected and functioning in balance, you’ll likely see:
- On-time (or early!) milestone achievements
- Fewer ear infections
- Less colic and fussiness
- More restful sleep
- Better digestion and easier bowel movements
- Improved latching and nursing
- Smoother sensory and motor development
- Stronger immunity and greater adaptability to stress
A well-regulated brain means a more resilient, connected child — from tummy time to toddlerhood and beyond.
Children
As your child continues to grow, learn, and interact with the world, their brain is working constantly to help them adapt, regulate, and thrive. A healthy and balanced brain and nervous system lays the foundation for emotional stability, immune strength, learning, behavior, and physical development.
When the brain is dysregulated — whether from birth stress, falls, illness, inflammation, or sensory overload — kids may struggle in ways that seem unrelated, but all trace back to the nervous system.
At Meraki, we specialize in evaluating and supporting healthy brain function using a neurodevelopmental approach. Our care helps your child’s brain make the right connections at the right time—so they can meet life’s challenges with more ease.
Children with a well-functioning brain and nervous system often experience:
- Reduction in behavioral issues
- Fewer tantrums and meltdowns
- Fewer sick days and stronger immune response
- Relief or reduction in allergies and asthma
- Improved focus and attention span
- Elevated mood and emotional regulation
- Increased body awareness and coordination
- Easier adaptation to new environments or routines
- Better posture and spinal development
- Deeper, more restful sleep
When the brain is balanced, the body follows.
Helping your child feel better, learn easier, and grow into their full potential starts with the nervous system.
Teens & Pre-teens
The teen years are some of the most intense years of life. Rapid brain development, changing hormones, shifting identities, academic pressure, social dynamics, and the stress of planning for the future can all become overwhelming.
During this stage, the brain is undergoing critical restructuring—pruning old neural pathways and building new ones. If the nervous system is out of balance during this time, teens may struggle with emotional regulation, physical discomfort, focus, anxiety, and more.
At Meraki, we help support the teen brain through chiropractic and functional neurology to improve how the brain and body communicate—reducing overwhelm and building resilience from the inside out.
Teens with a well-regulated and balanced brain and nervous system often experience:
- Decreased PMS symptoms
- More stable and elevated moods
- Better adaptation to their changing bodies and environments
- Greater comfort and confidence in their physical selves
- Reduced anxiety and emotional overwhelm
- Regulated hormones and smoother hormonal transitions
- Sharper concentration and focus
- Improved posture and spinal alignment
- Stronger immunity and stress resilience
- Better digestion and sleep quality
- Improved motor coordination and balance
- Faster recovery from sports injuries and fewer repeat injuries
A regulated nervous system builds stronger minds, more resilient bodies, and healthier futures.
Support your teen now, so they can grow into adulthood feeling more confident, focused, and empowered.
Adults
Life is full of physical, emotional, and environmental stressors. The way our bodies respond to and manage these stresses plays a crucial role in overall health. In fact, the inability to properly regulate stress is linked to over 90% of all chronic diseases and illnesses.
At Meraki Chiropractic & Functional Neurology, we focus on optimizing your brain and nervous system function to help your body better handle stress, heal more efficiently, and perform at its highest level.
Adults with balanced and healthy nervous systems often experience:
- Improved concentration, memory, and cognitive function
- Better, deeper, and more restorative sleep
- Fewer illnesses and stronger immune resilience
- Elevated and stabilized moods
- Balanced hormones that support energy, metabolism, and emotional health
- Enhanced cardiovascular health and blood sugar regulation
- Improved digestive function and gut-brain communication
- Faster recovery from injuries and reduced risk of chronic pain
- Better posture, coordination, and physical performance
- Greater ability to manage and adapt to stress in daily life
A well-regulated nervous system is the foundation for lifelong vitality, resilience, and well-being—empowering you to live fully and thrive in every area of your life.
Pre, Peri, Postnatal
No matter what phase of the reproductive journey you are in—whether trying to conceive, pregnant, or postpartum—a healthy and balanced nervous system plays a crucial role in supporting your body’s natural processes. Your brain and nervous system regulate hormone balance, stress responses, and physical functions essential for fertility, pregnancy, and recovery.
At Meraki, we focus on optimizing nervous system health so you can navigate each stage with greater ease, comfort, and confidence.
Women with balanced nervous systems who maintain care throughout pregnancy often experience:
- Easier conception and hormone regulation

- More comfortable pregnancies with less pain and stress
- Better fetal positioning for easier birth
- Shorter labors and fewer interventions
- Reduced complications with lactation and breastfeeding
- Faster postpartum recovery
- Improved sleep quality
- Enhanced digestion and nutrient absorption
- Reduced nausea and morning sickness
A well-regulated brain and nervous system supports your body’s ability to create, nurture, and heal—empowering you to have a healthier, more positive reproductive experience.
Men’s Fertility
Just as women’s reproductive health depends on a well-balanced nervous system, men also need optimal brain and nervous system function to support fertility and overall well-being. The brain regulates hormone balance, stress levels, and physiological functions that impact sperm health and reproductive success.
At Meraki, we help men optimize their nervous system to improve fertility outcomes and support their role in the reproductive journey.
Men with balanced nervous systems often experience:
- Balanced hormones critical for reproductive health
- Improved sperm motility and healthy sperm counts

- Enhanced energy, focus, and overall wellness
A healthy nervous system supports men’s fertility by creating the foundation for optimal hormonal function and physical resilience—helping you be at your best when it matters most.
