Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) Linked to Health Issues
You’ve heard the saying, “Everything is connected.” Now, government research shows a correlation between childhood traumas, a.k.a. ACEs, and health problems later in life.
The Centers for Disease Control conducted a study with Kaiser Permanente that found a link between multiple ACEs and increased risk for health and quality of life issues, including depression, heart disease, alcoholism and more.
ACEs can lay dormant for years until the buildup of stress begins to result in physical and mental issues. If you experienced something stressful in childhood—as two-thirds of the study participants reported—we can help.
Our unique chiropractic services, when combined with QNRT and neurotherapy stress reduction therapies have been developed to help relieve the lurking stress caused by ACEs.
We encourage you to learn more about:
