How can I begin to express how happy my family and I have been since we discovered our chiropractor, Dr. Candice McCowin, DC? Two years ago, my two sons were diagnosed with autism. Costa Mesa Chiropractic

Delay in learning how to speak, lack of facial expressions, and walking on tip-toes were specific issues we dealt with in handling our two boys. But then, we became more concerned with our youngest boy, Toby. It soon became apparent that, while both boys would benefit from chiropractic care, Toby needed extra attention. Lately, he underwent a spell and was unable to communicate. In addition, he also had several sensory issues. Apprehension came into me and my husband and thought that we would get lost in touch with him.

Another couple in our parent group had gone through a similar experience not too long ago, so we called them to ask for advice. We were then referred to Great Life Chiropractic in Costa Mesa, California.

Toby has gone from being totally nonverbal to having what we call a “signing vocabulary” of about 12 words, and he is now sleeping through the night. Since many autistic children do not sleep through the night, we consider this as a major coup.

Along with weekly chiropractic treatments, Dr.McCowin encouraged us to look at making dietary changes. Gluten-free, wheat-free, dairy-free cookbooks now occupy our bookshelves. After studying the nutritional supplements extensively and with the doctor’s advice, we have implemented them on the entire family’s diet aside from Toby’s diet and gained good results.

Our efforts have paid off in many ways. She informed us that she had seen progressive results and asked us of the changes that had happened at home and what we have been doing differently. Then, she showed Toby’s recent work to us and used it for comparison against the previous works before beginning the treatments. While many of the differences were subtle, they were definitely there and we were pleased with the results. Chiropractic Treatment In Orange County California
