Chiropractic care isn't just for adults!

Kids love chiropractic care! Most of the time siblings race each other to our chiropractic tables to see who gets adjusted first. Chiropractic therapy is not only incredibly beneficial to the health of children, but also often quite enjoyable for them! Children love the experience of visiting the chiropractor and the unique treatment they get from it. We ensure that your children will have a great experience when they come to visit us.

Toddlers suffer over 500 falls by the time they reach 2 years of age, but full symptoms may take years to show up. As toddlers learn the basics of how to properly walk and maintain their balance, they experience hundreds of falls before they become successful at maintaining their posture. Children often take part in a number of activities that can cause subluxations, from playing sports to riding bikes. To find out if your child has any spinal misalignments and to treat the problems before further issues arise, it’s important to seek out chiropractic care.

Many current health programs started all the way back in childhood. While most people may associate chiropractic care with adult treatment, there are so many children who benefit from chiropractic therapy, whether for the treatment of injuries, pain, discomfort, or for the maintenance of a healthy spine and nervous system. While injuries are one of the most prevalent reasons for parents to take their children to the chiropractor, the misalignments that might occur in children do not always show symptoms right away, which is why regular visits to the chiropractor can help to treat problems before they become more serious later in life.

We correct the potentially serious subluxations that can occur during delivery. During childbirth, an infant can undergo a lot of stress on their nervous system and spine, which can create spinal and cranial misalignment. Due to the numerous health concerns that may arise at birth, parents often choose to take their infants to a chiropractor to be checked out right away. As the newborn develops and starts sitting upright, crawling, and walking, they should also be seen by a chiropractor, as these may also cause subluxations.

There is no bigger way to directly influence your child's healthy development than through chiropractic care. To ensure your child achieves their optimal health, it’s important for parents to take them for regular chiropractic therapy sessions which include gentle spinal adjustments and alignments. Children’s bodies may be sensitive as they are rapidly undergoing a lot of biological changes with the development of their bones and muscles. Active children and those involved in various sports and exercises are also exposed to more injuries and aches. Schedule a chiropractic session to ensure that your child has a healthy development.
