Chiropractic Care for Children
Your nervous system is your 'Master Control System'
- Colic or irritability
- Failure to suckle and breastfeed
- Poor sleeping habits
- Developmental delays
- Digestive issues
- Asthma
- Behavioral problems
- Low energy
- Lack of concentration
- Headaches
We could go on as the list is endless; however, regardless of how the symptoms present, all roads to optimal health lead back to your own body!
What we say next may be shocking!
You may not know it, but chiropractic care doesn’t treat any of the
symptoms we mentioned previously. Oppositely, chiropractic care
aids the body by allowing the nervous system to function at peak
levels and allows the body to do what it was designed to do, heal
itself!
You may be wondering “How do children get nerve interference?”
Nerve interference occurs during normal everyday life. For instance, they can result from physical,chemical and emotional stressors or ‘insults’ to our health, such as:
- Poor posture
- Prolonged repetitive motion
- Being a stomach sleeper
- Falls
- Injuries
- Dehydration
- Exposure to chemicals and toxins
- Stress and anxiety
Not only can everyday activities cause nerve interference or subluxations, but these can occur even before birth due to in utero positioning, motion limitation, and contact with toxins resulting in direct neurological irritations. In addition, subluxations can also be caused by birthing complications such as long labor and delivery times, the use of forceps or cesarean delivery.
Chiropractic care is all about addressing the cause of these neurological issues and symptoms so your child can grow up happy and healthy! Even infants can benefit f rom chiropractic care as specialized techniques are used to gently correct any subluxated areas. This can be done even shortly after birth! Now considering how early these subluxations can occur, you can see why it’s incredibly beneficial and practical to have your child’s nervous system assessed! As a result, addressing any potential issues early will help support your child’s overall health and well being!
What if my child isn’t experiencing symptoms?
Chiropractic care for children is ideal even if your child isn’t currently experiencing symptoms for the following reasons:
- It encourages positive brain and nerve development
- Helps to strengthen your child’s immune system and has the potential to reduce the occurrence of colds, earaches and other illness
- It encourages good spinal posture
