Chiropractic Care for Children

Raising them up well

Chiropractic care is important for babies and children, too!  The birthing process is very traumatic, which is why we love checking babies for misalignments even just a few days after birth.  And guess what!  It’s as gentle as testing the ripeness of a tomato - some babies even sleep through it! 

 

As children grow and develop they are experiencing stressors on their bodies.  Many stressors come from the falls and tumbles they experience while learning to crawl, walk, or simply during growth spurts.  Maintaining alignment of the spine during these developmental years helps their bodies maintain optimal nervous system function which can help improve behavior, sleep, their immune system, and many other health concerns!

Why Children Come to Optimal Life

  • To encourage good neural plasticity for brain and nerve development

  • To prevent ear infections or reduce and eliminate if already occurring

  • To help with latching/breastfeeding issues

  • To help alleviate digestive problems and constipation 

  • To help strengthen their child’s immunity

  • To reduce the number of colds, and general illnesses

  • To assist with colic and infant irritability

  • To encourage proper spinal posture

  • To help improve their child’s ability to concentrate

  • To help with bed-wetting and sleeping issues

  • To help the body overcome respiratory issues like asthma, breathing difficulties, and allergies
