Pediatric Chiropractic in Mount Pleasant
Lighthouse Family Chiropractic believes in the power of chiropractic care for individuals of all ages. In addition to full family chiropractic care, our practice offers pediatric chiropractic care designed for the tiniest members of your family.
Nurturing Well-Being
From the moment we enter this world, our bodies are susceptible to stress. We believe that birth trauma is the number one most overlooked cause of the rising rates of chronic illness and disease in children. Even the most ideal birth can be stressful for babies and cause nervous system interference. This can show up in many different ways and paired with rapid growth and development, can lead to various symptoms, such as colic, ear infections, breast-feeding struggles and so much more. Through gentle and precise chiropractic adjustments, our goal is to remove this nervous system interference and help your child lead a happier, healthier life.

Declan’s Story: Finding a New Rhythm
Before starting care, Declan’s mom described him as constantly living in a state of “fight or flight.” His challenges made traveling and attending events difficult for the family, and he was also struggling with extreme constipation and chronic ear infections. By that point, he was already on his third set of ear tubes.
His family had tried many different approaches, including care with other chiropractors, but felt they had seen little to no change.
When Declan came to the office, his mom was looking for a different approach. After seeing his nervous system scans, she felt they were finally in the right place.

Within the first few weeks of care, his family began noticing changes. Declan was going to the bathroom more regularly, his chronic ear infections were no longer occurring, and his mom felt he was beginning to move out of the constant fight-or-flight state she had previously described.
Taking the Time to Understand His History
During Declan’s initial visit, the team sat down with his mom and went through his full case history, including her pregnancy and signs of early nervous system stress.
Nervous system scans were then performed. When his mom returned for the second visit and saw the results, she says she immediately felt confident about moving forward with care.
Declan began with frequent adjustments, coming in three to four times a week. As his care progressed, that frequency changed, and he now comes in once a week.
“We Got Our Son Back”
For Declan’s mom and dad, the changes they have seen reach beyond individual symptoms. They feel like they “got their son back.”
Today, Declan enjoys traveling with his family, attending his big brother’s sporting events, and participating in school and his therapies. His family has also noticed changes in the way he connects with the people around him.
Declan is nonspeaking and communicates using a letter board. During his time under care, he has become an open speller, giving him another way to communicate with his family.
Through his letter board, Declan has even shared his own perspective: chiropractic care has been a “game changer” for him.
For his family, seeing Declan participate more fully in everyday life has made a meaningful difference.
