Many parents feel frustrated when their child's pediatrician or traditional doctors don't fully address their concerns. Perhaps you've asked about the causes of your child's illness or challenges, only to be dismissed with explanations like 'it's genetic.' Or maybe you've sought specific, non-pharmacological health solutions and encountered indifference.

At Reissing Health, we understand your frustration. We offer an approach where we truly listen to you, the parent who knows their child best, because you've been with them every step of the way.

If you are looking for doctors who listen, explain things clearly, and address the root cause with specific solutions, our approach to pediatric and family health care is designed for you.

Most traditional pediatricians and conventional doctors often struggle with questions about what truly causes a child's health issues. Their training typically doesn't equip them to identify these root causes. Consequently, they may dismiss your questions and concerns, often saying things like 'it's just genetic' or 'don't worry, they'll grow out of it' – even when your parental intuition tells you otherwise.

Time for a New Approach

To provide a clearer understanding of our distinct approach to pediatric and family health care, we will detail what makes our First Visit and Patient Intake Experience unique at Reissing Health. It all begins with attentive listening.

Our in-depth consultation and exam process is unique in healthcare. We will break it down step-by-step for you here. Once we uncover the real root cause of your child’s health challenges, starting with any dysfunction or imbalance within their nervous system and overall development, we can then begin the process of helping your child recover without the use of medications and their unwanted side effects.

Your First Visit

We Listen First: Every new patient experience with us begins by dedicating ample time to sit down with you either in person or via a dedicated phone consultation. We’ll go deep into your child’s case history, working alongside you to uncover the stressors, injuries, and other factors contributing to their current health challenges.

We Go WAY Back: We don’t stop at current symptoms or challenges; we investigate deeper. We explore your child’s entire history, from fertility and pregnancy to labor, delivery, and early childhood. These hidden clues are often overlooked but hold the key to understanding your child’s health.

We Take Our Time to Explain Everything: After an in-depth case history, we ensure you fully understand Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care, how it works, when you can expect to see changes, and so forth. We break down the science and neurology behind our approach, the Care Plan Process, what to expect during care, and the typical duration.

We Run Our Exam + Neurological INSiGHT Scans: Our office stands out not only from traditional doctors and specialists but also from other chiropractors. Our advanced INSiGHT Scans allow us to pinpoint the root cause of your child’s health challenges, whether they are digestive, immune, motor, sensory, behavioral, emotional, or anything else. This is because the nervous system controls every other system in the body.

The 2nd Visit – Your Child’s Custom Care Plan

Once we gather all this vital information from the in-depth consultation, case history, INSiGHT Scans, and examination, we’re ready to create your child’s fully personalized and customized Neurological Restoration Care Plan. This plan will be presented to you on the second visit, known as the Report of Findings.

Once we’ve established this plan, we begin with your child’s Neuro-Tonal Adjustments. These adjustments are quick and gentle, designed to relieve tension and stress from their nervous system. As we work to release built-up tension, these adjustments also stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system and vagus nerve, helping to activate key healing processes such as sleep, digestion, immune function, and motor planning. This specific approach to healing is both gentle and sequential, and it quickly becomes encouraging to see your child’s health improve.

Some parents may feel anxious about trying chiropractic care for their kids at first, but you’ll find comfort in the gentle and calming approach of our trained PX Docs who guide you and your child through each step of the process. Reissing Health has two CACCP-certified doctors on staff, ensuring specialized care for your family.

If you are ready to set up a New Patient Intake Experience or your family’s First Visit, please call Reissing Health today. One of our dedicated Care Advocates will guide you through the entire process and answer any additional questions you may have. If you are not local to us, check out the PX Docs directory to find a local doc near you.

Now is the time to take the first step and see what changes are possible for your child's health with us!
