What to Know About Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Pediatric chiropractic care may not be as well-known or common, but it is a valuable method of care for children of all ages. In the same way, that chiropractic care helps balance the nervous system for adults, kids can experience those same benefits.
If you’re wondering how pediatric chiropractic care can help your little one(s), this post is for you.
What It Is
Pediatric chiropractic care is a safe and non-invasive alternative approach to improving the health of your child. This practice recognizes the importance of a healthy spine and nervous system development in a child’s growth and helps promote it through consistent assessments and adjustments. By increasing the function of the nervous system, pediatric chiropractors also help mitigate common childhood issues such as colic or sleep disturbances.
How It Helps
While our current healthcare system relies too heavily on medication and fixing symptoms, chiropractic care helps children of all ages uncover the root causes of issues and find wellness that lasts.
Let’s talk through an example of this. If your child has an ear infection, for instance, a pediatrician may prescribe an antibiotic to take over a series of days and kill the infection. But that works only as a band-aid solution by solving the immediate problem–because the infection could come back. A pediatric chiropractor, on the other hand, would create a plan to provide better balance to the child’s nervous system over time, which would heal and prevent further ear infections.
Through pediatric chiropractic care, children can experience relief from a wide variety of health concerns such as immune system response issues, headaches, scoliosis, delayed speech, asthma, constipation, urinary incontinence, and digestive issues. Infants benefit from chiropractic care for breastfeeding problems, reflux, colic, and issues with crawling, standing, or other movements.
