Listen from one of our recent attendees!
Parenting a child with neurological challenges can be overwhelming, frustrating, and isolating. Many parents struggle to find a doctor who listens and understands what they’re going through and to find effective solutions that align with their values and beliefs without resorting to medications or therapies that come with unwanted side effects.
That’s where our workshop comes in. Taught by leading expert Dr. James Peterson, this workshop will help you uncover the truth about the “Perfect Storm” our children are put through in today’s medical system and toxic, stressful world and empower you with the knowledge, tools, and drug-free strategies to support your child’s unique needs and help them thrive!
Watch this quick video from Dr. James Peterson
Dear Parents,
What if all of the common neurological challenges our kids are facing today first started brewing many years ago? What if kids don't really "grow out of" colic, constipation, chronic ear infections, and other early childhood challenges like you were told? What if there has been a "Perfect Storm 🌪" brewing with their nervous system ever since they were born 👶 ?
Years ago Dr. James Peterson discovered a missing link to all of these challenges that still today is entirely overlooked and missed by the traditional medical system, and occurs in well over 80% of kids with autism, ADHD, anxiety, sensory processing disorder, and other neurodevelopmental challenges in kids.
In this workshop you'll learn:
Learn how the true root cause of these challenges goes beyond genetics, gut health, motor tone and coordination, diet changes, and detoxes and really resides within the central and autonomic nervous system
Incorporate natural, drug-free approaches to help your child’s nervous system relax, unwind, and get back on track developmentally
Build a network of support and community with other parents and providers who understand your journey and will help you navigate through the storm
If you've tried it all and your child is still in a tough spot, this workshop is for you!
Come have your hope restored, and your questions answered, and get the drug-free 💊 help you've been searching for!

Is There Hope? We Think So!
Meet Sawyer
"Sawyer was struggling physically, mentally and emotionally before we found Thrive. His body was in constant fight or flight mode, and it was wreaking havoc on his immune system with constant strep infections and never-ending colds and headaches. Simple tasks were becoming chores and he lacked focus in anything he was not interested in doing. We were running into barriers, the pediatricians only wanted to prescribe medications and would not take our concerns seriously. It did not matter what supplement we tried what antibiotic he was given he was in a constant state of being sick and we were not getting anywhere.
To help boost Sawyer's immune system they tried ENT, toothpillow and myofunctional therapy and saw little improvements. And they were still on the path for a tonsillectomy.
"Every doctor looked at me like I was crazy when I asked about the root cause, they blamed genetics. Sawyer complained almost daily about how he was feeling.
When we physically saw the scans of Sawyer's nervous system. I knew we were in the right place all of the issues he was having were right there in front of us. His lack of concentration, coordination, physical, mental, and emotional problems were right there. I could not believe as a parent what we were missing. It sounds crazy, but even after the first week, we noticed changes in Sawyer. He was standing taller, quicker to recover and came home from school without complaining of a headache, he slept through the night for the first time in a long time.
Sawyer is loving baseball and basketball, which he complained about sports before, he's more easy going, we are seeing his full personality come out. He's a better version of himself and of course we still have challenges, but they are so much more easily resolved.
We love every staff member, they remember little details and are so welcoming. They are just as excited as we are about wins, big or little. The kids love the jokes on the board. We are looking forward to continuing this process for Sawyer and hopefully the rest of our family."
Meet Crosby
At the young age of 3, Crosby was severely struggling with anxiety, excessive stimming (happy flaps), chronic ear infections, and chewing on her fingers. 😔 Despite trying countless therapies and interventions, nothing seemed to provide real the results they were looking for. Mom said, “We kept feeling like we were hitting a wall because all the exercises we were doing and trying at home just didn’t seem to be making much progress.”
Mom shared, “I remember coming in for our first appointment to have Crosby’s first scan and it was a plain disaster. She HATED it. I mean we had to put on the gown and her trigger of being in a doctors office skyrocketed. Her meltdown was super intense for EVERYONE. In the midst of it all I started bawling (not helpful I know) and I remember saying, “You are my last hope, this is what it is like all the time and I don’t know what else to do.”
Mom and Dad were determined and chose to trust the process! They held onto hope that a different approach would lead to different (and much better) results. 🤞🏼
“We noticed an immediate change within a week of care. Her sleep improved significantly. She no longer was restless when sleeping. She would stay in the same sleeping position for much longer periods than before. After about a few weeks we noticed she became more comfortable with going to TFC and it didn’t seem to trigger any feelings on going to a doctor's office.”
As they continued care, the transformation was undeniable. “It took her about 4-5 months when we started noticing a decrease in her “happy flaps” and on month 6 she quit chewing on her fingers and has not chewed on them or anything since.”
Mom shares after completing their care plan “We now feel more confident as a family going to different places because her anxiety has diminished significantly. Doctors' visits are also not as traumatic or emotional for everyone involved.”
Way to go, Crosby! You are going to do amazing things sweet girl! 🙌
Meet Matthew
For a long time, Matthew was stuck at a level 10 with his emotions. Keeping his parents on high alert and feeling hopeless. His mom shared, “It was heartbreaking to not be able to help him. He was at a level where his body couldn’t compensate anymore and he had his first seizure in July. Then about a month later another seizure. They were terrifying. They lasted about 10 minutes he turned blue unable to breathe. His little body was frozen.”😔
“We were on constant alert waiting and watching for any sign he was becoming too emotionally dysregulated. We tried to pacify him and meet his every need without many demands. Those days that were high stress, high demand we held our breath wondering if he was going to have another seizure and maybe have serious damage. He wasn’t able to just be a kid and play…even doing his favorite thing, swinging outside was dangerous because of the risks involved with his seizures.”
“We felt like we needed to find the root cause. We weren’t comfortable with the idea of just medicating the problem. We went from one specialist to another always being told ‘well, he’s autistic’. We started different therapies and were told our son ‘wasn’t ready for therapy’. It was a constant closing of doors. Seeing Dr. James has only opened doors. Seeing Matthew’s progress and it corroborate his scans the improvement is undeniable.”
After starting care, the changes for Matthew started happening quickly. Mom says, “Within the first few visits Matthew was no longer at a 10. After the first month we stopped holding our breath wondering if he would have another seizure. We are going on 6 months seizure free. He’s been able to do things we wouldn’t have considered before the latest being a road trip to a new city and an overnight stay
Today, “Matthew is happy and able to regulate his emotions more consistently. We are grateful, worry less and are more hopeful about the future.” 🙌🏻 ❤️
