Clark Chiropractic serving Lemont, IL provides care that emphasizes nervous system health and brain function in those with ADD and ADHD. These conditions, known as Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, are neurodevelopmental disorders that affect individuals at many stages of life. Common symptoms include trouble with focus, behavioral regulation, and attention, which can impact school success, work efficiency, and daily activities.
While most people are familiar with medications, therapy, and behavior techniques, some families now seek chiropractic for ADD/ADHD as a complementary method of care. By correcting spinal misalignments that affect the nervous system, chiropractic care supports brain function and improves quality of life for children and adults alike.

ADD and ADHD Symptoms Across Ages and Environments

ADD and ADHD symptoms include hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention, but individuals may experience them in very different ways. For some, staying organized or focused is a challenge. For others, controlling thoughts and reactions may be more difficult. These issues typically appear during early school years, where learning and behavior difficulties affect a child’s ability to succeed academically.
In adults, symptoms often include trouble staying on task, difficulty maintaining a routine, and executive functioning challenges that may impact mood and stress levels. Since this condition affects each person differently, it is important to explore a variety of treatment options that are tailored to their learning and lifestyle needs.

How Spinal Health Affects Brain Function in ADD/ADHD

Clark Chiropractic serving Lemont, IL emphasizes the link between nervous system function and attention deficit disorder, especially in how it affects self-regulation, behavior, and focus. Clear communication between the brain and body depends on spinal alignment, and misalignments can interfere with neurodevelopmental processes.
When the cervical spine is not properly aligned, it may impact the brain’s ability to manage attention, mood, and executive functioning. Studies suggest that pressure on the nervous system may be a factor in ADHD symptoms, such as impulsivity and emotional dysregulation. Chiropractic for ADD/ADHD care helps support nervous system health and can be used in combination with therapy and medication.

Chiropractic’s Role in Supporting Brain Activity in ADD and ADHD

Chiropractic care focuses on restoring spinal alignment, which may help regulate brain function and reduce stress on the nervous system. Misalignments in the spine can interfere with brain activity and are often linked to symptoms such as hyperactivity, poor focus, and impulsivity.

Chiropractic for ADD/ADHD Involves Steps to:

• Strengthen nervous system communication to help with executive functioning and emotional management
• Realign posture and spinal structure to assist blood circulation and nerve signals reaching the brain
• Minimize nervous system stress that may influence mood swings and feelings of anxiety

This approach may improve focus, self-regulation, and thought clarity for individuals with ADHD symptoms.​

Understanding Brain Function and Spinal Interference

At Clark Chiropractic serving Lemont, IL, we evaluate whether spinal misalignments are disrupting normal nervous system function. These misalignments may influence brain function and are often linked to issues with attention, mood, and behavioral control.
Correcting misalignments in the upper spine can restore healthier nervous system activity and potentially improve how individuals manage symptoms related to ADD and ADHD.

Chiropractic Tools for Managing ADD and ADHD Symptoms

Using chiropractic for ADD/ADHD involves careful, individualized care that supports both the nervous system and brain activity. Our technique includes:

• Spinal adjustments to restore the nervous system’s natural balance
• Posture-focused assessments that explore how misalignment may affect brain function
• Supportive recommendations to help manage mood shifts, focus problems, and hyperactivity
  

Our chiropractic for ADD/ADHD team works with individuals at all stages of life, designing care plans that match their needs and support their long-term wellness.

Supporting Brain Health in ADD and ADHD Through Nutrition

Good nutrition can play a valuable role in supporting individuals with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Parents and adults often use dietary changes to help manage mood, focus, and behavior more effectively.
Common nutrition strategies include:

• Consuming more omega-3 fats to help brain function and support executive functioning
• Eliminating processed snacks, sugary drinks, and artificial additives that may affect attention and energy
• Drinking water and eating nutrient-rich meals to stabilize mood and improve concentration
  

At Clark Chiropractic, we provide guidance on lifestyle factors like diet that may support individuals with ADD/ADHD.

How Managing Stress Can Improve ADHD Symptoms

Stress can worsen symptoms of attention deficit disorders, including impulsivity, emotional reactivity, and poor focus. Teaching stress reduction skills can make symptom management easier for children and adults.
Helpful approaches may include:

• Using mindfulness tools and deep breathing to stay calm and focused
• Moving the body regularly through exercise to boost mood and brain activity
• Following consistent daily routines to improve focus and reduce anxiety
  

Stress reduction techniques combined with chiropractic for ADD/ADHD can help individuals gain better control over daily challenges.

I am very pleased with the overall service and results. I came in for chronic migraines and neck pain. Dr. Clark has made a noticeable difference in my neck mobility. There has been a huge decline in my migraine frequency and intensity after only one month of care. My neck pain is down to zero. Dr. Clark and staff are friendly and personable. They have been incredibly accommodating to my needs and schedule. My husband is seeing Dr. Clark now as well for his back pain and mobility, due to the satisfaction of service I've received."  - Taylor C.

I'm happy to have found a doctor who truly cares about his patients and the community. I spend 8+ hours a day sitting at a desk looking at a computer and have regularly had neck, back and shoulder pain. Dr. Clark listens to my concerns and I like his approach to improving my health. For the first time in years, I don’t have daily pain. Several members of my extended family also go to see Dr. Clark and his care is tailored to each of our needs—not the same treatment for everyone as I’ve witnessed in other practices. He and his staff are always friendly and accommodating to my schedule. Dr. Clark is more than a good chiropractor - he is a kind person regularly giving back to the local school district and community."  - Carol T.

Dr. Clark is amazing! I look forward to my adjustment every week. Dr. Clark has completely eliminated my chronic neck pain and has really improved the flexibility in my neck and back. I was considering surgery for my knee until Dr. Clark gave me a series of exercises that have strengthened my knee and decreased my pain. I would recommend Clark Chiropractic to anyone suffering from neck, back or joint pain. Dr. Clark gets results!"  - Larry B.

I've been a patient of Dr. Clark for a couple of years now, and I can't say enough good things about him. He's personable, experienced and sympathetic to the needs of his patients. I had experienced trauma to my back last year and could barely move my neck without extreme pain. He helped me get through it in a few weeks. I thought the pain would never end, and he was my life-saver. I highly recommend him. He's great!"  - Joy C.
