Chiropractic care for infants and children is often not considered. Like adults, they are in need of this care also. Infants in particular can have a wide range of possible conditions related to slow or traumatic birth and c-sections.

A birth canal is larger and more elastic than a c-section incision. Pulling a baby out of this smaller cavity by its neck or arms can cause injury to the neck or traction the nerves that originate in the neck when the arm is pulled. The delicate spine can then grow misaligned and set the child up for discomfort, decreased mobility or pain.

These misalignments can put pressure on the fragile nerves and interfere with the body’s ability to coordinate and control all phases of development and growth. Chiropractic care for infants can help correct these potential problems through careful, precise and effective adjustments.

Most of the problems we experience as adults actually come from our childhood . This is possibly due to all the falls that a baby has while learning to walk, broken bones, or poor posture.

Posture problems can result from inappropriate/heavy backpacks, hours in front of the computer, television or texting, playing roughly, and over all poor posture sitting.

A tremendous amount of stress on the spinal column from sports, gymnastics, cheerleading , dance, car accidents or bicycling falls can result in misalignments that can cause problems and pain in future decades.

The nervous system controls and coordinates every stage of development and growth and keeping your child’s nervous system as health as possible through regular treatment will help to mitigate future problems.

Chiropractic care after any potential injury, misalignment, postural problem is advised.

Your child’s health immediately after birth and up to a month after birth is critical. I can assess the health of your child and look for potential disturbances and misalignments very gently and effectively.

As your child ages, giving chiropractic care and nutritional guidance to promote their full body health would be a privilege for me.
