Addressing Bedwetting with Chiropractic Care in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL

Bedwetting is a common issue that affects many children, often leading to embarrassment and emotional distress. This distress can affect a child’s social interactions and self-esteem, as they may avoid sleepovers and other activities due to fear of embarrassment. In Ponte Vedra Beach, FL, chiropractic care offers a supportive approach to managing bedwetting, enhancing children's confidence and quality of life.

Understanding Bedwetting in Children

While all infants start life without bladder control, most children achieve control over their bladder by the age of 5. However, many continue to struggle with nocturnal control, and only 15% of these children will naturally outgrow bedwetting without any intervention. Chiropractic care, while not a cure, has been reported by many parents to quickly improve their children's bedwetting issues.

Understanding Bedwetting in Children

Bedwetting may be linked to the nervous system, which controls the bladder through nerves that run from the spinal cord to the bladder muscles. These nerves are affected by the alignment of the spine, particularly in the lower back and sacrum area. Childhood is full of physical activities and minor falls, which can shift the spine's alignment and put pressure on these nerves, potentially leading to bedwetting.

During your visit to Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Jacksonville in Ponte Vedra Beach, our chiropractors will look for any misalignments in your child’s spine that could be affecting their nerve function. The goal is to relieve this pressure through safe, gentle, and natural chiropractic adjustments, thereby improving bladder control.

Research Supporting Chiropractic Care for Bedwetting

Multiple studies highlight the potential benefits of chiropractic adjustments for bedwetting:

  • A study involving 165 children who were wetting the bed almost every night saw a reduction to three nights a week after receiving chiropractic care, with 20% of participants achieving complete dryness by the end of the study.
  • Another study compared 30 children receiving chiropractic adjustments to 20 children who did not receive any treatment; the group under chiropractic care saw a 25% reduction in bedwetting episodes.

These findings suggest that chiropractic care can significantly impact children’s ability to control their bladder, especially at night.

What Patients Say About Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Jacksonville
Ryan S.
Before Dan, I hadn’t seen or even heard of a Gonstead chiropractor. After the results that I’ve received, I’ve been feeling much better and have had less irritability in my lower back. I’ve seen other chiropractors in the past but after seeing him it changed my mind on chiropractic because he practiced Gonstead on me. His adjustments were a lot more specific as he targeted my actual problem rather than adjusting multiple spots in my back. After seeing Dan, the pain has significantly decreased and my lower back has felt the best it’s been. Now I see him for wellness and preventative care and I no longer experience the pain and discomfort I previously had.

I was having a lot of back and neck pain that resulted in headaches daily. I was seeing a Gonstead chiropractor beforehand and wanted to continue seeing one while attending school in the area. I found Daniel Brisuda, who practices the Gonstead technique, and found that there were different ways to help relieve my headaches. After seeing him 1-2 times a week in the first month; I started seeing results almost immediately. The headaches disappeared along with my neck and back pain. I started sleeping better at night and my body function was ultimately restored. Also, as a current chiropractic student, Daniel was very willing and adamant in helping me learn and understand the Gonstead technique all the while educating me on the whole process of what a thorough system of analysis can do in chiropractic.

I have had rib pain and pain between my shoulder blades from my double mastectomy for over 5 years. It was really tough sleeping through the night and going to the gym with this pain. I came across Daniel who practices Gonstead. In a short time, my rib pain disappeared. I had tried other chiropractors in the past and my pain stayed the same but this really helped me. I rarely feel rib pain or pain between my shoulder blades anymore. I'm so happy I can lift and sleep better now. I also noticed that my anxiety and stress went down after I started receiving treatment.

For any former athletes, or anyone dealing with chronic pain, I can't recommend Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Jacksonville enough. As a retired collegiate wrestler, I’ve put my body through years of intense training and competition. Over time, that wear and tear caught up to me, especially in my lower back. The pain became a constant part of my life. It limited my workouts, made it hard to stay active, and even affected my sleep and daily routine. I tried everything between stretching, massages, physical therapy, and even rest, but nothing gave me lasting relief. When I met Daniel, he introduced me to the Gonstead chiropractic system, and right away, I noticed how specific and targeted the care was. There were no unnecessary exercises or long rehab routines, just precise adjustments that worked. It was incredibly gentle but effective.

Since 2023, I had a burning pain in my mid-back. This pain made it hard to do many daily activities and impacted my focus in school. The pain was gone with only a few adjustments, and my day-to-day life improved so much. I won’t be going to anyone else besides Daniel Brisuda now.

I was dealing with constant upper thoracic pain and stiffness that made it nearly impossible to get a good night’s sleep. I would wake up multiple times throughout the night, tossing and turning just trying to find a comfortable position. It was affecting my energy, mood, and ability to focus during the day. I tried tons of different ways to try to get a better night’s sleep. What stood out about Gonstead Chiropractic was how specific and targeted the care was. Dan pinpointed exactly where the issue was coming from and adjusted only what needed to be corrected. He was super knowledgeable, with no guessing. And unlike other approaches, I didn’t have to do hours of stretches or exercises outside of the clinic to see results. Within just a few visits, I started sleeping through the night again, something I hadn’t done in months. My upper back felt looser, my posture improved, and I finally had the energy to get through my day without feeling drained.

My main problem was my lower back pain was horrible. It stopped me from doing activities like running, weight training, practicing judo, and simple daily tasks. Before going to Daniel Brisuda I went to a chiropractor in Puerto Rico who would adjust my whole spine. It did not work! But seeing Daniel using Gonstead Chiropractic, helped me so much in my life. It took about 1 and a half weeks to clearly see results. Since then activities like running, going to the gym, doing judo, as well as cleaning in my apartment have been amazing with no lower back pain. On the other hand, Daniel was able to accommodate me for an appointment to help me when I needed him the most when the pain flared up after another judo injury, as well as he taught me a lot during the process.

I had a lower back injury from playing football in high school that had been nagging me for years. It slowed me down during basic activities like getting dressed in the morning. I saw some non-Gonstead chiropractors, but it never felt like they got to the root of the problem. Daniel was a lot different. He actually took the time to listen to my complaints and did the most thorough examination I have seen and even took X-rays to confirm what he found. After 3 visits with a gonstead clinic I got more relief than I had with years of regular chiropractors. It seemed like he only adjusted the segments that needed to be fixed and that’s what made all the difference. I’m in a better mood now that I can go through my day without my lower back getting in the way!

I have worked for years in healthcare administration. Over the past 2 years, I noticed an increase in eye strain, lower back pain, and periodic headaches. I assumed the extensive hours at a computer were taking a toll.
When Daniel asked me about this, I joked that my age might be catching up with me. I shared that I didn't want to be living off painkillers - I wanted the pain gone. He did an analysis explaining to me what he found as causes. Daniel answered my questions and then stated what he was going to do to help. I felt informed and comfortable as he adjusted me. There was a noticeable improvement right after the adjustment. Even cleared my sinuses; which I hadn't realized was even a concern compared to the other things. That night I slept better than I had in ages. The best part was the next day: my back and eyes were pain-free and no headaches since the adjustment.

Highly recommend a Gonstead Chiropractor if engaging in routine exercise or intense athletics. Periodically when exercising I've experienced discomforting lower back pains, and everytime I receive a Gonstead adjustment, Daniel has subtly subdued such discomfort and restored ease of motion. I've been beyond satisfied with the standard of care provided, and know I can count on such expertise if any lower back pains occur again.

I can finally live normally and get back to doing what I love. In high school, I got a concussion, and I started having migraines and intense headaches that went on for years. I tried everything medications, different doctors, and therapies, but nothing provided real, lasting relief. I am an athletic individual, and not being able to train or compete for years was honestly one of the hardest things I’ve been through. I felt stuck and just exhausted from it all. A friend told me to check out Gonstead Chiropractic, and I figured I had nothing to lose. I didn’t expect much after everything else I’d tried. But within a short time, I started noticing real changes. The adjustments were gentle but incredibly effective. My headaches became less frequent and more manageable. For the first time in years, I felt like I was healing. I’m seriously so thankful I found them. I would recommend them to anyone going through the same struggle.

I have suffered from migraines for years, which has definitely interfered with the quality of my life. I would wake up with headaches all the time. I had just accepted that this was something that I had to live with for the rest of my life. I had been taking so much over-the-counter headache medicine that was not good for me. I heard about the Gonstead chiropractic approach and thought I would give it a try. This clinic took the time to listen to my symptoms, and then thoroughly analyzed my spine. After four treatments, I have not woken up in the morning with a headache. And I have not had to take medicine for my headaches! I am so glad that I put my trust in Daniel. He was gentle in his approach, and I am amazed that it only took a few visits to correct my condition. Life without migraines is amazing. Thank you, Daniel!

I am an active person in my late 50s. Out of nowhere, I began to experience extreme hip and lower back pain. Honestly, the pain was immensely affecting the quality of my life. I couldn't do the things I love, like pickleball, racquetball, and hiking. I was just hurt. The orthopedic I was seeing suggested surgery. I heard about the Gonstead chiropractic approach, and I decided to reach out to Daniel. He gave me a thorough exam and studied my X-rays. After a series of 4 visits, he was able to relieve my pain, and I am back to my normal activities. I am very grateful that I was able to heal under the care of Daniel using the Gonstead Chiropractic approach and that I did not go down the surgical pathway.
