The study will enroll about 34 children ages 8 and older at two schools in Illinois. Children will be identified by teachers and school staff as needing extra support, and families will complete a brief questionnaire to confirm eligibility.\n\nChildren who qualify will be randomly assigned to start the program right away (24 weeks of sessions) or after a delay (12 weeks of sessions, starting partway through the study). This \"delayed-start\" design lets every enrolled child eventually receive the program while still allowing researchers to compare outcomes between children who started earlier versus later.\n\nThe program combines sensory stimulation (lights, gentle vibration, scent), rhythm-based exercises, primitive reflex integration activities, and balance\u002Fcoordination training, delivered by a trained clinician in small groups of two. Sessions occur three times per week for about 20 minutes each.\n\nResearchers will measure whether the study procedures are practical and acceptable. For example, how many eligible families enroll, how well families and teachers complete follow-up questionnaires, how well students tolerate the assessments, and how consistently families attend sessions. As a secondary goal, the study will explore whether children show changes in thinking skills, fine motor coordination, and emotional\u002Fbehavioral functioning, measured using standardized tools (the NIH Toolbox and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire) completed by the children, their parents, and their teachers.\n\nThis is a feasibility study. It is not intended to prove that the program works, but rather to determine whether a larger, more rigorous trial is realistic and well-designed.",[26,27],"Social Behavior Disorders","Neurodevelopmental Disorders",[29,30,31],"Pilot Projects","Pediatrics","Melillo Method","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-08-18",{"date":35,"type":36},"2026-08-21","ACTUAL",{"date":38,"type":20},"2026-09-01",{"date":40,"type":20},"2027-05",{"name":42,"class":43},"Life University","OTHER",{"id":45,"slug":46,"hasResults":11,"nctId":47,"briefTitle":48,"officialTitle":49,"acronym":50,"eligibilityCriteria":51,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":16,"minAge":52,"maxAge":53,"enrollmentInfo":54,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":56,"phases":4,"briefSummary":57,"conditions":58,"keywords":60,"overallStatus":32,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":64,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":65,"startDateStruct":67,"completionDateStruct":69,"leadSponsor":71,"locationsCount":72},"100612649","chiropractic-for-kids-with-sensory-processing-challenges-100612649","NCT07256327","Chiropractic for Kids With Sensory Processing Challenges","The Effects of Chiropractic on Kids With Sensory Processing Challenges: a Pilot Observational Study","SPD","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 5-12 years of age.\n* SSP total scores ≤154\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* A known heart condition, including pacemakers\n* Chiropractic care within the past 30 days","5 Years","12 Years",{"count":55,"type":20},17,"OBSERVATIONAL","The main aim of this pilot observational study is to investigate the feasibility of implementing our novel assessment battery in tandem with normal and customary chiropractic care in a practice-based setting using a pediatric population with parent-reported sensory processing disorder (SPD).
