Unlocking Healing from Within:
The Power of the INSiGHT™ Neurological Scanning System

A Vitalistic Chiropractic Approach to Nervous System Health and Resilience

A New Way to See Health

In chiropractic care—especially through a vitalistic lens—we understand that true health is not merely the absence of pain or symptoms, but the presence of full function, balance, and adaptability. At the core of that function is the nervous system—the master control system of the body.

When the nervous system is communicating clearly and efficiently, the body has an incredible ability to heal, regulate, and thrive. But how do we measure nervous system function in a clear, objective way?  

That’s where the INSiGHT™ Neurological Scanning System comes in!
This cutting-edge, non-invasive technology allows us to assess the health and balance of your nervous system with scientific accuracy and clarity—helping us uncover stress patterns that often lie beneath the surface, long before symptoms appear.  

Whether you’re a busy adult feeling the effects of chronic stress, a child struggling with behavioral or sensory challenges, or a pregnant mom navigating the incredible changes of motherhood, the INSiGHT scans help us create a precise, personalized plan to support your journey toward optimal health.

The Vitalistic Chiropractic Perspective

The INSiGHT system, developed by Chiropractic Leadership Alliance (CLA), is a suite of advanced, non-invasive scans that evaluate the function of your nervous system.

It consists of three core technologies that each reveal a unique piece of the puzzle:

1 - Thermal Scan – Assesses autonomic nervous system balance by detecting temperature differences along the spine.
2 - Surface Electromyography (sEMG) –
Measures muscle tone and tension around the spine to show how efficiently your motor nerves are functioning.
3 - Heart Rate Variability (HRV) – 
Evaluates your body's ability to adapt to stress by measuring the balance between sympathetic (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) activity.

Together, these scans provide a full picture of how stress is affecting your nervous system, how much energy your body is using to compensate, and how resilient and adaptable your system really is.

How the individual INSiGHT Scans Work

1. Thermal Scan  - Measuring Autonomic Nerve Imbalance
This scan uses infrared sensors to detect small temperature variations along the spine, which reflect how the autonomic nervous system is functioning. Including digestion, circulation, glandular activity, and immune response.  

The Thermal Scan Reveals:

  • Areas of stress or tension in the sympathetic nervous system
  • Organ system imbalances that may not yet have produced symptoms
  • Patterns related to chronic stress or immune system compromise

2. Surface Electromyography
Measuring Motor Nerve Function
Surface electromyography detects the electrical activity in the paraspinal muscles, showing us your muscle tone & tension and  how much energy your body is using to maintain posture and spinal alignment.

The sEMG Scan Reveals

  • Imbalanced muscle tone or fatigue
  • Neurological compensation patterns
  • Areas of overuse or underuse due to stress or subluxation

3. Heart Rate Variability 
Measuring Adaptability
HRV, evaluates your body's ability to adapt to stress by measuring beat-to-beat variations in your heart rate, which tells us how well your body is managing stress and how much energy it has left for healing and recovery.

The HRV Scan Reveals:

  • Overall nervous system adaptability
  • Stress load on your body
  • How much healing potential you have in the current state

The Benefits of INSiGHT for Every Patient

For Adults with Chronic Stress and Nervous System Dysregulation In today’s world, many adults are stuck in a sympathetic-dominant state—constantly reacting to stress without time to rest, heal, or restore. This can manifest as:

This can manifest as:

  1. Fatigue
  2. Anxiety / Depression 
  3. Digestive Issues
  4. Brain Fog
  5. Chronic Pain / Tension

INSiGHT scans help identify the root cause—not just where pain is, but how the entire system is functioning. This allows us to create a care plan that supports true healing, not just symptom management

For Pregnant Women 

Pregnancy is one of the most transformative experiences for the body—and one of the most demanding on the nervous system. The INSiGHT system can:

  • Help track how well the mom’s nervous system is adapting to physical and hormonal changes
  • Reduce stress patterns that may affect labor or delivery
  • Optimize pelvic and spinal alignment to support the baby’s position and growth
  • Monitor autonomic balance, which is essential for fetal development

Chiropractic care during pregnancy, guided by INSiGHT scans, is a gentle and effective way to help both mother and baby experience a healthier, more connected journey.

For Children with ADHD, ASD, and Sensory Disorders

Perhaps one of the most powerful applications of INSiGHT scanning is in the care of neurodivergent children—especially those with:

  • ADHD - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
  • ASD - Autism Spectrum Disorder
  • Sensory Processing Disorders
  • Behavioral and developmental delays

These children are not broken. They are often living in a body that is overloaded by sensory input, with a nervous system that’s stuck in survival mode.

INSiGHT Scans Help To:

  1. Identify patterns of neurological stress
  2. Track progress as the child receives gentle chiropractic adjustments
  3. Empower parents with visual evidence of change
  4. Support the child’s ability to regulate, focus, and adapt

We don’t diagnose or treat these conditions — we simply work to optimize your child’s nervous system function so they can better experience the world around them

Improved Physical and Mental Performance
Optimal physical health is crucial for peak mental performance, and vice versa.

Chiropractic care ensures that the body functions efficiently, which can lead to improved energy levels, better sleep, and enhanced cognitive function. Life coaching, on the other hand, helps individuals set and achieve goals, boosting confidence and mental resilience.

Together, they create a foundation for improved performance in all areas of life.

Getting the Most Out of Your Scans
What We Want Patients to Know

1. The Scans Are Safe and Comfortable
No needles. No radiation. No discomfort. INSiGHT scans are completely safe for all ages—from newborns to seniors. The process usually takes less than 15 minutes and is performed while you’re comfortably seated.

2. We’re Looking for Function, Not Just Symptoms
It’s possible to have nervous system stress without feeling pain. Our focus is on how your body is working, not just how it feels. In fact, some of the most stressed nervous systems show up in people who have “no symptoms”—yet.

3. Healing Is a Journey
We use the scans as a baseline and then repeat them at key intervals to track progress. Just like taking blood pressure or checking your weight, measuring your nervous system over time helps us see how your body is responding to care.

4. Your Results Tell a Story
You’ll receive a printed report and visual overview of your scan results. We’ll walk you through the findings in clear, understandable terms, helping you see exactly where stress is present and how we’re going to address it.

Real-Life Impact: What We See in Practice

Over the years, we’ve seen countless patients experience remarkable transformations with the help of the INSiGHT system. While every person is different, here are some common outcomes we witness:

  1. Children sleeping through the night for the first time
  2. Pregnant moms reporting less back pain, better sleep, and easier labor
  3. Adults finding renewed energy and mental clarity
  4. Neurodivergent kids improving in focus, calmness, and coordination
  5. Families feeling more empowered and hopeful on their healing journey
