Chiropractic and Children

 How Healthy Are Your Children?

Many people have the attitude that Chiropractic benefits people most as they get older but actually the opposite is true.  People have asked us, “Can chiropractic help small children?”  Yes.  The most benefit one can receive is in the area of prevention and treatment of injuries and structural misalignments, before they manifest themselves as chronic spinal problems. Many children are born with congenital structural defects in the spine leaving them prone to back problems later on in life. Add to this the fact that children play rough. ‘They suffer falls, collisions, jolts, and impacts that cut, scratch and bruise the skin. But most parents are not aware that there are often unseen injuries that may be even more harmful to a child’s future health.

The function of every organ, tissue, gland and cell in the body is regulated by nerves. Even slight injury to nerve trunks as they exit the spine can cause diminished nerve supply. Here are some of the most common disorders in children, which chiropractors have found can be caused by pinched nerves: poor posture, poor coordination, nervousness, fever, headache, constipation, bedwetting, irritability, stomach ache, asthma, growing pains, lack of concentration, allergies. We can help your children.

All children in their growing years should have their spines checked on a regular basis. When was the last time you had your child’s spine checked by a chiropractor.
