Babies + Children
From a newborn, to a tumbling preschooler, to a high school football star, having a healthy spine and nervous system is essential to your developing child.
​
Studies have shown the birthing process in normal deliveries puts strain on the upper neck of over 90% of babies born. Not only that, the average toddler falls at least 38 times day!
​
With nearly two-thirds of a person’s neurological development occurring during the first year of life, chiropractic care helps to establish a natural foundation that can have immediate and lifelong benefits to your child’s health.
Chiropractic adjustments to a baby's or child's spine are gentle and specific; making it both safe and effective. When adjusting infants, we use as much pressure as we can comfortably tolerate by pressing into our closed eye. Sometimes babies even sleep through the visit!
Kids who receive chiropractic care can experience:
​​Better sleep and mood
Better digestion
Less ear infections
Less colic and reflux
Less asthma and allergies
Strengthened immunity
Improvement in behavioral issues
Increased connection
Improved learning
Reaching milestones timely
Enhanced athletic performance
​​
​Chiropractic does not treat these issues, but instead improves the bodies’ natural ability to heal and regulate itself by keeping the nervous system functioning at its best.
