Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Gentle Chiropractic care not only removes this nerve interference, but also stimulates the immune system while enhancing your child’s overall health. We use a combination of adjusting techniques, cranial-sacral therapy, myofascial release, soft tissue techniques and stretching to enhance your child’s health and well-being. Our evaluations also include looking at nutrition and exercise as fun ways to be healthy and have energy.
Common Conditions
Irritation to a young person’s nervous system can begin in-utero. The baby’s position in-utero and during delivery (natural or cesarean) can create stress on their nervous system. Even a “normal, healthy” birth can induce 40-50 pounds of pressure on a newborn’s neck and spine. Some of the symptoms to watch for include:
Ear infections | Difficulty Breast Feeding |
Colic | Reflux |
Sleep Disturbances | Constipation or Diarrhea |
Tilted Head Position |
Any bumps and falls can also create joint dysfunction and nerve irritation to a young person during the developmental years. This may present as:
Headaches | Stomach Aches, Heartburn, or Indigestion |
Growing Pains | Sports Injuries |
Osgood-Schlatter’s (Jumper’s Knee) | Skin Disorders |
Difficulty Sleeping | Asthma |
Bed-wetting | Allergies |
Difficulty Concentrating or staying focused |
