Understanding Chiropractic for Children

More and more parents are seeking Chiropractic care for their children. Many spinal problems seen in adults can begin as early as birth. Even natural birthing methods can stress as infant’s spine and developing nerve system. The resulting irritation to the nerve system cause by spinal and cranial misalignments can be the cause of many newborn health complaints such as: Colic, breathing problems, nursing difficulties, sleep disturbances, allergic reactions and chronic infections which most often are linked to nervous system stress. Chiropractic adjusting procedures are modified to fit a child’s size, weight, and unique spinal condition. On the very young, the adjustment is as light as a finger touch. Using his/her hands and/or specialized instruments to gently and specifically correct those abnormal areas, the spine and cranium regain their intended state of balance and the nerve system is freed from stress.
