Our Son’s Story.
Over sixteen years ago, Dr. Christie and Dr. Jeremai opened Purpose Driven Chiropractic in Eagle, Idaho, with a vision of helping families thrive. That vision became deeply personal when their son began facing significant challenges that forced them to rethink their approach to care and life.
He struggled in ways that impacted their entire family. He had difficulty holding a pencil, reading, and writing. He couldn’t pronounce hard consonants and often experienced meltdowns, sleepless nights, and night terrors. Frequent respiratory infections, like croup, only added to the stress. Socially, he seemed defiant and disconnected, unable to communicate or regulate his emotions the way most children do.
As parents, they found themselves overwhelmed by opinions from specialists and left with more questions than answers. They were told he had processing disorders, disorganized brain function, and underdeveloped fine motor skills. Like any parents, Dr. Christie and Dr. Jeremai were worried about what the future held for their son.
What would his relationships look like?
How would he manage in school?
Would he ever be able to live a “normal” life?
Desperate to help their son, they discovered The Pediatric Experience and Perfect Storm, developed by Dr. Tony Ebel. This discovery was the turning point that not only transformed his life but also redefined their approach to chiropractic care.
Today, with over a decade of experience in nervous system-focused chiropractic care, Dr. Christie and Dr. Jeremai have seen their son and their other two sons flourish in ways they once thought impossible. They’ve witnessed firsthand how addressing the nervous system can reshape children’s lives—fostering growth, improving relationships, and building resilience.
This deeply personal journey has shaped their mission to help other families break free from traditional medicine’s cycle of chasing symptoms. Through nervous system-based chiropractic care, they offer families a path to genuine healing and lifelong health.

Behavior and Bedwetting
“He is able to not only attend school but be able to learn and participate because he is able to focus now with less overstimulation going on in his body. He’s able to hold his bladder at night and has a sense of pride being able to do that. The day to day life is less stressful with less behaviors and his ability to focus and relax. He’s a happier kid being able to enjoy life and not be so anxious.”

Tics and Night Terrors
"Everett was having trouble with emotional regulation, having night terrors causing sleep walking and high emotional outbursts, and he also struggled with frequent physical or verbal tics. Now, Everett rarely ever wakes at night, and if he does he is calm and we just get him back to bed. The tics he struggled with for 2 or 3 years diminished slowly over time until now where they are basically non-existent. He has grown a lot to emotional regulate when upset. Every behavior/symptom we were concerned about improved to a drastic degree. We are so grateful!"

Nervous system-focused chiropractic care works by identifying and addressing stress and imbalances in the nervous system, which serves as the body’s master control center. When the nervous system is overwhelmed or not functioning optimally, it can affect how the body grows, heals, and adapts to challenges.
Using advanced tools like CLA INSiGHT nervous system scans, we assess how well your nervous system is functioning. These scans provide a clear picture of stress patterns and help us create a personalized care plan tailored to your needs.
Through gentle, precise adjustments, we help restore balance to the nervous system, allowing it to communicate effectively with the rest of the body. This approach doesn’t just focus on temporary relief—it supports long-term healing, growth, and resilience for both children and families.Description text goes here

Our approach focuses on the nervous system—the body’s master control center—rather than just the muscles and joints. Traditional chiropractic often centers on pain relief and structural alignment, but we dig deeper to address how the nervous system is functioning and adapting to stress.
Using advanced CLA INSiGHT nervous system scans, we measure how well the nervous system is communicating and identify areas of stress or imbalance. This allows us to create highly personalized care plans that don’t just chase symptoms but work to improve overall function, resilience, and health from the inside out.
Our care is gentle, precise, and designed for all ages, with a special focus on children and families. We aim to help your entire family thrive, not just feel better temporarily, but build a strong foundation for lifelong health and wellness.

The nervous system can become stressed when it’s overwhelmed by physical, emotional, or chemical challenges that disrupt its ability to function and adapt. One of the most common sources of stress is birth. Even during a smooth delivery, the process can place significant strain on a baby’s delicate and developing nervous system. Challenging births—such as those involving long labors, C-sections, inductions, or the use of forceps or vacuum assistance—can add even more stress, affecting how the nervous system regulates growth, digestion, sleep, and emotional development.
Other common stressors include:
Physical stressors: Falls, injuries, or prolonged postures (like extended time in car seats or at desks) can strain the body and nervous system.
Emotional stressors: Anxiety, fear, or feeling overwhelmed—common even in children—can create a heightened "fight-or-flight" response, making it harder for the nervous system to regulate effectively.
Chemical stressors: Exposure to environmental toxins, poor nutrition, or imbalances in gut health can impact how the nervous system communicates with the rest of the body.
When the nervous system is overwhelmed, it may struggle to help the body grow and adapt, leading to challenges such as poor sleep, digestive issues, behavioral difficulties, or developmental delays. Chiropractic care focuses on calming and rebalancing the nervous system, supporting the body’s ability to thrive naturally.

We understand that some children may feel nervous or have sensitivities to touch—this is something we’ve seen many times before, and it’s okay. At Purpose Driven Chiropractic, we approach every child’s care with patience, understanding, and respect for their comfort level.
Our techniques are gentle, and we take the time to build trust at your child’s pace. For children who may be sensitive to touch, we often start with simple, non-invasive steps, like letting them observe our tools, watching demonstrations on a parent or a stuffed animal, or just getting to know us in a low-pressure way.
Our experience has shown that with time and a thoughtful approach, children often become more comfortable and confident in their care. We’re here to support your child in every way, ensuring they feel safe and understood throughout their journey.

CLA INSiGHT nervous system scans are advanced tools that allow us to assess how well your nervous system is functioning. These scans provide a detailed, non-invasive way to measure stress patterns, identify imbalances, and understand how your body is adapting to challenges.
The nervous system is the body’s master control center, and when it’s overwhelmed or not functioning optimally, it can impact everything from growth and development to behavior, sleep, and overall health and healing. The information from these scans helps us create a personalized care plan tailored to your unique needs, ensuring we’re addressing the root causes of your health challenges—not just the symptoms.
By tracking progress over time, the scans also allow us to see how your nervous system is improving with care, giving you clear, measurable results on your journey toward better health and balance.

Every person is unique, so the timing of noticeable changes can vary. Some families report seeing improvements, such as better sleep, calmer behavior, or increased focus, within just a few visits. For others, changes may take more time as the nervous system begins to adapt and heal.
Our focus is on creating long-lasting, sustainable results by addressing the root causes of health challenges. While immediate improvements are always exciting, the true goal is to support your body’s natural ability to grow, heal, and thrive over the long term.
We’ll monitor progress closely and provide consistent feedback, so you’ll always know how your care is helping you or your child move toward your health goals.

A neurological adjustment is a gentle, precise technique designed to support and improve the function of the nervous system—the body’s master control center. Rather than focusing solely on bones or muscles, we target areas of stress or imbalance within the nervous system to help it communicate effectively with the body.
At Purpose Driven Chiropractic, we use a variety of techniques tailored to your unique needs. This includes adjustments with our hands, specialized instruments, or light-touch methods—all chosen based on what will best support your or your child’s nervous system.
These adjustments are safe for all ages and can help calm an overwhelmed nervous system, restore balance, and enhance adaptability. Many families notice improvements in sleep, focus, emotional regulation, and overall health as the nervous system begins to function at its best.

Adjustments can provide lasting results when they address the root causes of nervous system stress and help your body function more effectively. Our approach focuses on improving the way your nervous system regulates and adapts, creating a strong foundation for long-term health and resilience.
While some families notice immediate changes, lasting results often come with consistency and time as the nervous system adapts and heals. Regular adjustments, combined with healthy lifestyle choices, help maintain progress and prevent old patterns of stress from returning.
Our goal is to provide care that supports lasting transformation, helping you or your child thrive—not just temporarily feel better.
