Welcome to a brand new series of Connect My Brain! For the next couple of months, I’m going to be sharing a variety of real scenarios I’ve encountered in my office and share with you some of the tools and techniques I’ve used to help these individuals move forward. My hope is to give you a better glimpse of what I do at Connect My Brain and what kind of patients can benefit from my care. I want to cover some of the common issues children struggle with today and unravel them a bit by digging into what might cause these problems in the first place and how they can be helped.
In this episode, I share about a 10-year-old boy who came into my office struggling with anxiety, ODD, trouble paying attention, and impulsive behaviour. I see combinations of these behaviours and others in the kids I work with and the good news is there are ways I learn about out what’s going on in their bodies and brains. At Connect My Brain, I believe in resolution! I want to help you connect the pieces and in turn, help your child move forward.
In this episode, we cover:
- Introduction to the new case studies series
- What a brain map can tell us
- Things I ask about when taking patient histories
- Case Study on a ten-year-old boy
- Why developmental screenings are vitally important
- What happens when reflexes aren’t integrated properly
