- Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is the most common form of arthritis in children. In the US, It affects 70,000-100,000 kids under age 16
- Approximately 1 in every 400 to 500 children and adolescents has Type-1 diabetes. Overall, the risk for death among people with Type 1 diabetes is about 20 times greater than those without diabetes.
- For a term that was hardly known before the 1960's, learning disability has come to include everything from unexplained behavior patterns to clinical autism and everything in between. Learning disabilities have emerged as one of the most wide-ranging medical problems of children who live in developed countries.
- And in the US, the number of children diagnosed with autism and autism spectrum disorder has become 1 in 166 children.
The health of children in the US has deteriorated over the last several years. Take a look at these numbers:
- In 2002, The CDC reported that 12% of children under 18—approx. 9 million—have asthma. That was an increase of 2.7 million with asthma in just ONE YEAR!
- An additional 9 million children have been diagnosed with respiratory allergies, including hay fever, grass and pollen allergies.

As a result, parent are seeking a treatments other than giving their children drugs. At OsteoMed II, more than 30% of our patients are children. We have treated children with SRT, allergy elimination to resolve symptoms ranging from ADD/ADHD to allergies/asthma/eczema to trichotillomania.
The Foundation of Your Child’s Success
We begin with a series of allergy elimination treatments to decrease food and environmental sensitivities and to improve immune system health. Gastrointestinal distress is reduced and children become calmer. Studies measuring children’s brain waves using an EEG have demonstrated a more tranquil, less chaotic pattern following allergy elimination treatments. Subsequently, children are more alert, focused and able to learn.
Parents have reported improvements in their children’s behaviors when gluten (in wheat) and casein (in dairy) are eliminated from their diet. Allergy elimination helps by desensitizing them to these substances, and, in some cases, dietary restrictions are not necessary.
Restoring Health Through Nutritional SupportYears of “picky” eating habits can result in vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Specific nutrients have documented therapeutic benefits for optimizing neurological functions. Supplements will be suggested specific to your child’s needs.
