Children’s Health
Children are some of the biggest beneficiaries of chiropractic care. Surprised? The changing habits of tablets, phones and computers are creating more problems for our young ones.
Nervous System Disturbances
The nervous system, consisting of the brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of the body, controls and regulates the entire body.
Our gentle adjusting techniques for children help reduce disturbances so your child’s body can work as it should.
Chiropractic For Children
Why would a child have a spine and nervous system problem? Traumatic births. Learning to walk. Slips. Falls. The list is endless. Yet, because children have such an adaptive capacity, these problems are often brushed off as just a “phase they’re going through.”
The concern that many parents have is that chiropractic adjustments will be too forceful. They mistakenly think that their child will receive manual adjustments like ones they have heard about. Not only are adjusting techniques modified for each person’s size and unique spinal problem, an infant’s spine rarely has the long-standing muscle tightness seen in adults. This makes a child’s chiropractic adjustments gentle.
Knowing exactly where to adjust, newborns and infants are adjusted with no more pressure than you’d use to test the ripeness of a tomato. Of course, there is only need for an adjustment when it is clinically necessary.
