Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care for pediatrics is a growing area of focus within the chiropractic field. Many parents seek out chiropractic treatments for their children to address issues like colic, sleep disturbances, and general wellness, while others use it as part of a holistic approach to managing conditions like asthma, ear infections, or even hyperactivity.
Common Reasons Parents Choose Pediatric Chiropractic Care:
🌿Colic
🌿Reflux
🌿Torticollis (neck stiffness in infants)
🌿Ear infections
🌿Bedwetting
🌿Constipation
🌿ADHD or sensory issues
🌿Growing pains or posture issues
What to Expect from Pediatric Chiropractic Care:
1. Gentle Adjustments
Pediatric chiropractors use much lighter pressure and more specialized techniques than those used on adults. The adjustments are very gentle and specifically tailored to a child’s size and developmental stage.
2. Evaluation
A pediatric chiropractor typically performs an assessment before making any adjustments, which may include reviewing the child’s medical history, performing a physical exam, and assessing posture and alignment.
3. Holistic Approach
Chiropractors may suggest lifestyle and dietary changes to help manage certain conditions, focusing on overall well-being rather than just specific symptoms.
