Every parent knows the struggle—your child catches a cold, takes forever to recover, and just
when they’re feeling better, they get sick all over again. It feels like an endless cycle of
sniffles, fevers, and sleepless nights. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. But here’s the
good news: you don’t have to rely on medications that only mask symptoms. You can break
the cycle naturally by strengthening the body’s defenses at the root level.
At VWC, we take a science-backed, whole-body approach to immune health, helping families Kick the Sick & recover faster by supporting the nervous system, immune system, and natural detox pathways. In this guide, we’ll break down exactly what’s keeping your family stuck in the sick cycle and how to turn things around fast.
Why Are Families Getting Sick More Often?
If your family seems to be catching every cold and virus that comes around, it’s not just bad luck. The modern lifestyle has weakened our natural immune defenses, making it harder to fight off infections. Here’s why:
❌ Chronic Stress Overloads the Body
Stress keeps the body in “fight or flight” mode, which suppresses immune function. When your nervous system is overwhelmed, it diverts energy away from healing and recovery.
❌ Overuse of Medications
While fever reducers and antibiotics may seem helpful, they often suppress symptoms rather than allowing the body to fight off illness properly. The result? A weaker immune system over time.
❌ Poor Diet & Nutrient Deficiencies
Most kids (and adults) don’t get enough vitamin D, zinc, and probiotics—all essential for a strong immune response. Sugar and processed foods also fuel inflammation, making it easier for viruses to take hold.
❌ Toxins & Poor Detox Pathways
When the body is burdened with toxins (from food, air, water, and even household products), it struggles to eliminate waste and fight off infections. This leads to lingering congestion, chronic inflammation, and slow recovery.
If any of this sounds familiar, don’t worry—we’re about to walk you through the 4 key steps to help your family recover faster and stay well all season long!
Step 1: Support the Nervous System for Stronger Immunity
💡 Did you know? The nervous system directly controls the immune system!
When your nervous system is stuck in stress mode, your body can’t fully heal, fight off infections, or regulate inflammation. If your child gets sick often, their nervous system may be overloaded and out of balance.
How Chiropractic Care Helps:
✔ Chiropractic adjustments remove nervous system stress and activate the body’s natural
immune response.
✔ Research shows adjustments can increase immune function by up to 200%!
✔ Less stress = stronger immunity, better sleep, and faster recovery.
At VWC, we use INSiGHT Scans to measure exactly how much stress is on the nervous
system and pinpoint where it needs support.

the sick cycle!
Step 2: Fuel the Body with Immune-Boosting Nutrition
🚫 Cut back on sugar & processed foods. These spike inflammation and weaken the immune
response.
✅ Prioritize nutrient-dense, whole foods, including:
- Vitamin D & healthy fats (found in eggs, salmon, and grass-fed dairy)
- Zinc & antioxidants (from leafy greens, berries, and nuts)
- Bone broth & collagen (great for gut health and immune function)
- Probiotics & fermented foods (like yogurt, sauerkraut, and kefir)
When the body is well-nourished, it can fight infections faster and recover without
complications.
Step 3: Support Natural Drainage & Detox Pathways
When your child gets sick, their body produces mucus and toxins as part of the healing
process. If those toxins aren’t properly flushed out, symptoms can linger for weeks.
🔄 How to support drainage & detox:
✔ Increase water intake to help the body eliminate toxins.
✔ Encourage movement (jumping, stretching, playing outside) to stimulate the lymphatic
system.
✔ Use saline rinses & humidifiers to clear congestion naturally.
✔ Take warm Epsom salt baths to help detox & reduce inflammation.
💡 Chiropractic care also plays a huge role in detox! Spinal adjustments help open up
drainage pathways, so the body can eliminate waste and bounce back faster.
Step 4: Regulate Sleep & Stress for Faster Recovery
A well-rested body heals faster and is more resilient against illness.
😴 Improve sleep by:
✔ Establishing a consistent bedtime
✔ Limiting screens at night to support natural melatonin production
✔ Using white noise or essential oils to promote relaxation
💡 Stress reduction is also key! Chiropractic care calms the nervous system, which lowers
stress hormones and allows the body to heal.
