What to Do When You’ve Tried Everything for Your Child and Nothing Works

As a parent, nothing is more heartbreaking than watching your child struggle while you search tirelessly for answers. You’ve tried everything—special diets, medications, supplements, therapy—but that breakthrough you’ve been praying for still hasn’t come.

If this sounds familiar, you are not alone… and more importantly, there is hope.

When “Trying Everything” Still Isn’t Enough

Take Hannah’s story.

At just 11 years old, Hannah was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis. On top of the pain, she faced daily nausea, headaches, digestive problems, chronic fatigue, anxiety, and depression. Her family tried it all—special diets, supplements, medications, even chemotherapy—but nothing brought lasting relief. Hannah felt so hopeless that she told her parents she didn’t want to live like this anymore.

Sadly, this isn’t uncommon. We see families facing similar battles with:

• Autism and ADHD

• Epilepsy

• PANS/PANDAS

• Allergies and asthma

• Chronic digestive issues and more

Parents exhaust every traditional and alternative approach, yet their child still struggles. But here’s the truth: it’s not because you’ve failed—it’s because most healthcare providers are missing a critical piece of the puzzle.

The Missing Piece: Your Child’s Nervous System

Imagine building a house. You could spend thousands on beautiful furniture and advanced technology, but if the foundation is cracked, nothing works the way it should.

Your child’s nervous system is that foundation. It develops first in the womb and controls:

• Gut health and immune function

• Sensory processing and speech

• Motor development

• Emotional and behavioral regulation

• Focus, learning, and cognition

If the nervous system is stressed or out of balance, other therapies—no matter how good they are—won’t stick.

Understanding the “Perfect Storm”

Many kids today are stuck in what we call The Perfect Storm—a series of stressors that overload their nervous system, often before they’re even born:

• Pregnancy Stress: High maternal stress levels can impact a baby’s developing nervous system.

• Birth Interventions: C-sections, forceps, and vacuum deliveries can cause stress and tension in the brainstem and vagus nerve.

• Early Environmental Stressors: Antibiotics, toxins, and repeated illnesses can further disrupt nervous system regulation.

When this foundation is unstable, it’s no wonder kids struggle to heal, focus, sleep, or thrive.

Why Traditional Approaches Often Fail

Most treatments focus on symptoms—diet, gut health, behavior—but skip the nervous system.

It’s like fixing a roof while the foundation is crumbling. Without first restoring the nervous system’s balance, progress stalls and parents are left feeling defeated.

A Better Path Forward: Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care

At His Work My Hands Chiropractic, we start where true healing begins: the nervous system.

Here’s how we help:

• Objective Neurological Testing: Our INSiGHT Scans identify nervous system stress and subluxations that other tests miss.

• Gentle, Specific Adjustments: Safe, effective care to restore proper brain-body communication.

• Foundational Healing: Once the nervous system is balanced, other therapies and healthy habits finally start to work the way they should.

Hannah’s Breakthrough

After Hannah’s very first neurologically-focused adjustment, she slept through the night, her nausea eased, and her appetite returned.

Today, she’s thriving—and she’s even studying to become a pediatric chiropractor so she can help other children find hope before they reach their breaking point.
