If you’re like most parents, you want clarity. Real, meaningful answers about what’s going on with your child’s health—not guesses, not “they’ll grow out of it,” and definitely not another “wait and see.”
Maybe your baby struggles with sleep or digestion. Maybe your school-aged kiddo can’t sit still or focus no matter how hard they try. Or maybe your teen is carrying stress, worry, or anxiety that seems to appear out of nowhere.
After caring for so many families over the years, one thing has become very clear:
These challenges often have a common root—a nervous system that’s overwhelmed and stuck in stress mode.
And here’s the encouraging part:
When we can see what’s going on in the nervous system, we can finally support it in the way your child truly needs.
Why the Nervous System Matters So Much
Think of your child’s nervous system as their body’s master communication system. It runs everything—breathing, heart rate, digestion, immune responses, sleep cycles, movement, focus, emotions, and even how they handle everyday stress.
When the nervous system is calm, adaptable, and communicating clearly, your child can learn, grow, regulate, and thrive.
But when it’s stressed—whether from birth trauma, injuries, illness, tension, or day-to-day overwhelm—it’s like the “gas pedal” gets stuck on high speed.
That can look like:
-
Trouble settling or sleeping
-
Digestive issues
-
Emotional ups and downs
-
Chronic ear infections
-
Anxiety or overwhelm
-
ADHD-like challenges
-
Sensory struggles
A stressed system has a harder time healing, resting, digesting, or staying regulated.
The Power of Neurological INSiGHT Scans
This is where modern technology helps bring clarity. Neurological INSiGHT scans are gentle, non-invasive tools that help us understand exactly how your child’s nervous system is functioning.
No guessing. No assumptions. Just clear, objective information that helps us build a care plan tailored to your child.
Let’s break down the three types of scans and what they tell us.
1. NeuroThermal Scan — Your Child’s Autopilot System
This scan measures temperature patterns along the spine, giving us insight into the autonomic nervous system—the part that runs on “autopilot.”
It controls things like:
-
Digestion
-
Heartbeat
-
Immune function
-
Stress responses
-
Breathing
When we see temperature differences from one side of the spine to the other, it tells us which parts of the nervous system are working too hard and where support is needed.
2. Surface EMG — The Tension & Energy Map
This scan shows us where the body is holding tension or burning too much energy.
Think of it as a “stress blueprint.”
It helps us understand patterns behind things like:
-
ADHD and focus struggles
-
Sensory processing challenges
-
Motor coordination issues
-
Emotional regulation concerns
-
Seizure disorders
-
Even fertility challenges for parents
When kids feel “revved up,” can’t sit still, or melt down easily, this scan often shows us why—because their nervous system is literally stuck in high gear.
3. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) — The Stress Resilience Score
HRV tells us how adaptable the nervous system is—how well it can shift between “go-go-go” (sympathetic) and “rest, heal, recover” (parasympathetic).
A healthy HRV means:
-
Good stress resilience
-
Better sleep
-
Emotional steadiness
-
Improved focus
-
Stronger immune function
A low or unbalanced HRV often signals:
-
Chronic stress
-
Difficulty calming down
-
Fatigue
-
Poor recovery
-
A system stuck in fight-or-flight
From Scans to a Personalized Care Plan
Once we combine these scans with your child’s history and your parent insights, we’re able to create a care plan built specifically for them—not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every child’s story is different. Their care should be, too.
What the Scan Experience Feels Like
We know trying something new can feel a little uncertain, so here’s what you and your child can expect:
When you arrive, we welcome your family with warmth (and yes, snacks—because hungry kids and early appointments don’t mix!).
The scan room at Foundation of Stone Pediatric & Perinatal Family Chiropractic is calm, cozy, and child-friendly.
The scans are:
-
Quick: Usually finished in just a few minutes
-
Comfortable: No poking, prodding, or discomfort
-

-
For everyone: From brand-new babies to grandparents
Most kids find the process super cool—especially when they get to see their colorful scan results!
Why These Scans Matter
You know your child better than anyone. You feel when something is off. You notice the patterns.
These scans provide the missing piece: objective data that confirms what your heart already knows.
They give us:
-
A clear starting point
-
A roadmap for care
-
A way to measure progress over time
-
Confidence that we’re addressing root causes—not just symptoms
The Bottom Line
Whether your child is dealing with colic, chronic ear infections, emotional overwhelm, ADHD, sensory challenges, or you simply want to support their development…
It all begins with the nervous system.
When the nervous system is balanced and communicating clearly, the body can heal, grow, and thrive the way it was designed to.
Neurological INSiGHT Scans help us understand why your child is struggling and how to support them.
If you’re ready to take the first step toward real answers and real solutions, we’d love to guide you.
