Benefits of Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Our skilled pediatric and infant chiropractors can correct misalignments that cause sleep problems, earaches, asthma, and more. Chiropractic also alleviates stress in young children, which can lead to improved behavior. For infants, small spinal misalignments can cause colic, reflux, and even trouble latching.
Other conditions that can be helped with chiropractic care for kids include, but are not limited to: constipation, loss of hearing, scoliosis, poor posture, poor coordination, back pain, extremity pain, hip pain, ADD, ADHD, allergies, and more.
Is Chiropractic Safe
for My Child?
Many parents ask us if infant chiropractic adjustment is safe. Our experienced, knowledgeable doctors regularly treat infants and children. Chiropractic adjustments are safe and effective, even for infants, and can make a huge difference in their overall health. Some parents decide to schedule their infant’s first appointment shortly after birth to correct any misalignments due to the birthing process.
Kids usually are not in any discomfort during treatment, unless we are treating an injured area. We ensure that adjustments are gentle and take great care — especially if the child is already experiencing pain.
The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) affirms that the evaluation, diagnosis, care, and management of pediatric patients are effective, safe, and gentle.
