Kids & Chiropractic
Pregnancy
Clinical research has documented chiropractic helping numerous cases of pregnant women whose fetus was in a less than optimal position or breech. After specific forms of chiropractic care, many pregnant women achieved an improvement in the fetal position resulting in an easier birth.
Newborns, Infants, and Babies
It has been well documented that the birth process can be traumatic on a young newborn’s spine. Nerve system interference, known as subluxation, created during the birth process can have a serious impact on a baby’s health and development.
Adjustments given to newborns, infants, or babies are very different from those given to adults. Specific adjusting techniques are used to gently correct spinal issues safely, with no discomfort.
Toddlers and Pre-school
As toddlers begin to walk, a whole new dynamic of spinal function comes into play. Not only is gravity being applied to the spine differently than when the baby was crawling, but toddlers often fall when learning to walk. This is a critical time to make sure that the spine and nervous system are free from interference due to subluxation.
A large volume of documented cases has shown that children with a variety of health issues lead normal and healthy lives with chiropractic.
Children
Many children are either starting sports and increasing their activity or spending more time in front of electronic media, and the possibility of developing subluxation becomes obvious.
Attention to a child’s spine and nervous system is the best way to ensure that your child grows and develops properly.
