The Power of Preventative Care

Getting chiropractic care throughout your life, beginning in childhood, may help your body function at its peak. So for children, this form of natural care can allow them to be as close to their 100 per cent potential as possible.

Providing Gentle Adjustments

Understandably, parents who have never taken their child to see a chiropractor before may wonder how their little one will be adjusted. There is a big difference in terms of how we will adjust babies and children compared to adults.

Because children’s spines are easy to adjust, we only need to use gentle pressure – about the same amount used when checking a tomato for ripeness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do children need to come in for care as often as adults?

In many cases, kids are able to heal and adapt much quicker than adults. The majority of the time, kids require less frequent care.

Why should I have my infant adjusted soon after they’re born?

Even natural childbirth can produce spinal damage that is more easily corrected if detected early. Chiropractic may gently remove any subluxation that may be present in your child’s nervous system allowing your newborn to experience healthy growth and development.

Can chiropractic help my child’s posture?

Because so many kids these days are spending significant time on digital devices, such as texting or watching videos or shows on a tablet, postural problems can develop. Our natural care can help restore critical movement to their spines.
