Dr. Stanczak Asks some important questions of interest to Roseville residents - Chiropractor Roseville Dr. Stanczak Asks...

Can chiropractic cure a child's ear infections?
Chiropractic isn't a cure for anything. Nor is it a treatment for ear infections. However, many children who suffer with ear infections also suffer from spinal problems in their neck, compromising nerves to the ear, depressing the immune system and preventing proper drainage.

What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Roseville parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.

Autism-Mercury Link

Children's health issues image.

Remember the Mad Hatter from the childhood classic, Alice in Wonderland? Back then, the process of making hats involved using mercury compounds. Overexposure could produce symptoms referred to as being "mad."

Could there be a link between mercury and today’s increase in the number of autistic children?

Autism is a developmental disability that affects, often severely, a person's ability to communicate and socially interact with others. Interestingly, it is four times more prevalent in males than females.

In the 1990’s, reported autism cases among American children began spiking, from about 1 in 10,000 in 1987, to a shocking 1 in 166 today!

Some believe autism is merely a developmental disorder that some people are born with. Yet, in recent years, an increasing number of innoculations containing a mercury-based preservative called Thimerosal have been added to the nation’s already burdensome vaccination list. About this same time, some parents noticed that their previously healthy children were descending into a silent, disturbed and physically ill state soon after receiving vaccinations.

If there is a connection, as some parents assert, chiropractic care may help in a couple of ways:

  1. By helping to avoid or reduce the number of inoculations. Many parents choose to enhance their child’s (and their own!) immune systems with regular chiropractic care.
  2. By optimizing the nervous system. Reducing biomechanical stress to the nervous system gives autistic children a better chance of becoming all that they can be.
