1. Supports the Immune System
Pediatric chiropractic care is a great way to support a child’s immune system so that they can better fight off sickness.
Chiropractic care has been known to not only decrease sickness time, but also prevent sickness before it can flare up.
For ear infections- adjustments aid in reducing inflammation and pressure, allowing the fluid in the ear canal to drain normally and resume normal functions.
2. Improves Sleep
Children of all ages need good sleep to grow physically and emotionally. Poor spinal health can lead to tight muscles that cause back pain that can affect sleep, contribute to insomnia, or be the root cause of bedwetting. Gentle chiropractic adjustments can remove misalignments and nerve interference so children can get the recommended amount of sleep.
3. Improved Behavior
Stress can affect children both physically and emotionally. Chiropractic care is one of the best ways to alleviate stress, which can, in turn, improve children’s moods and overall behavior.
Children with anxiety, depression, ADD or ADHD may have spinal misalignments as well. An adjustment can be beneficial for helping children to concentrate and focus better throughout the day. It will also release pressure put on the spine, bones, and joints to improve a child’s neural brain development.
4. Infants and Development
Many babies suffer from colic, suffer to breastfeed, or experience reflux. Babies have a fragile spine that can get misaligned at the slightest touch, especially after delivery and traveling through the birth canal. Spinal misalignments in infants may be the root cause of such issues.
Colic is thought to be caused by digestion issues while trouble latching could be caused by tight muscles in the neck and back. Chiropractic can correct both these issues so that both mom and baby can thrive.
