Why do children need chiropractic care?
The birth process may be one of the most traumatic events of our lives.
Even so called natural birthing can put stress on a still developing spine.This may result in irritation to the nervous system
and can cause many newborn health complaints.
Colic, unexplained crying, poor appetite, breathing problems,
allergic reactions, and ear infections, can be traced to nervous system dysfunction caused by a malfunctioning spine. Spinal
malfunction from falling when learning to walk, can often be helped with chiropractic care.
In older children, contact sports can interfere with proper growth during rapid stages of spinal
development. During this period of rapid growth, bumps and falls if neglected, may lead to serious spinal issues later in
life. It can set the stage for scoliosis,or a weakened immune system response.
Chiropractic adjusting techniques are modifyed to fit a childs size, weight, and unique spinal
problem. Parents often report their children seem healthier than other kids their age.
Many spinal problems seen in adults begin in childhood. Proper spinal care is
an important key to better health.
