PEDIATRIC CARE

Chiropractic care is great for kids! It helps with proper neural and musculoskeletal development throughout very stages of life from infancy into early adulthood. Growth plates close around 21 years of age, so getting routine Chiropractic care can positively influence a healthy foundation for life.
 

The pressure used is no greater than checking the ripeness of a tomato. It is safe, gentle, and effective. It helps create the best foundation for kids to thrive!

​

PEDIATRIC CARE CAN
HELP WITH 

​

Infants (0–12 months)

  • Colic (excessive crying, especially in the evening) — reduces nervous system tension and supports digestion to ease discomfort and crying

  • Difficulty breastfeeding or latching on one side — improves neck and jaw mobility to support more comfortable, effective latching

  • Reflux or frequent spit-up — supports digestion and reduces tension to help decrease reflux symptoms

  • Constipation or irregular bowel movements — supports nerve communication for more regular, healthy bowel movements

  • Gas, bloating, or digestive discomfort — relieves nervous system pressure to improve digestive comfort

  • Torticollis (head tilt or preference to one side) — improves neck mobility and reduces muscle tension for more balanced movement

  • Plagiocephaly (flat spots on the head) — improves neck movement to reduce positional preference and head pressure

  • Trouble sleeping or short sleep cycles — supports a balanced nervous system for longer, more restful sleep

  • Irritability or difficulty being soothed — reduces tension to help babies feel calmer and easier to soothe

  • Delayed milestones (rolling, crawling) — supports mobility and nerve communication for healthy development
     

Toddlers & Young Children (1–5 years)

  • Frequent ear infections — supports ear drainage and reduces nerve interference to improve fluid balance and immune response

  • Chronic congestion or sinus issues — supports sinus drainage and helps regulate inflammation and congestion

  • Poor sleep or restless nights — reduces tension and supports deeper, more restorative sleep

  • Digestive issues (constipation, stomach aches) — supports healthy digestion by improving brain–gut communication

  • Growing pains or leg discomfort — reduces joint and muscle stress to ease growth-related discomfort

  • Frequent falls or coordination issues — improves balance, coordination, and body awareness

  • Poor posture or asymmetrical movement — corrects imbalances to support better posture and movement patterns

  • Behavioral challenges (irritability, difficulty focusing) — supports nervous system regulation for improved focus and behavior

  • Bedwetting (in some cases) — supports bladder control through improved nerve communication

  • Recovery after falls, bumps, or minor injuries — restores alignment, reduces inflammation, and supports healing​​​

General Signs Parents Notice (All Ages)

  • Something just seems “off” — subtle changes in behavior, comfort, or movement may signal underlying imbalance

  • Changes in how they walk or move — uneven patterns like limping or toe-walking may indicate restriction or imbalance

  • Trouble sleeping — difficulty falling or staying asleep may be linked to discomfort or nervous system tension

  • Fussiness or irritability — increased difficulty soothing may reflect underlying tension or discomfort

  • Digestive concerns — constipation, gas, or stomach aches may be linked to nervous system regulation

  • Frequent headaches — head pain may be related to tension, posture, or activity

  • Complaints of joint or muscle pain — soreness or discomfort may indicate stress on muscles and joints

  • Posture concerns — slouching or uneven positioning may signal spinal or muscular imbalances

  • Changes in body alignment — uneven hips, shoulders, or feet may reflect structural imbalance

  • After falls, bumps, or injuries — lingering tension or misalignment may affect movement and comfort

  • Frequent ear infections or congestion — recurring issues may indicate drainage or nervous system challenges

  • Difficulty focusing or behavioral changes — restlessness or mood shifts may relate to nervous system imbalance

  • Delayed or uneven development — asymmetrical or delayed milestones may reflect mobility or coordination issues

  • Sports or activity-related strain — repetitive activity may lead to tightness, imbalance, or overuse

BENEFITS FOR
NEWBORN BABIES
 

  • Recovery from the birthing process (first trauma in life)

  • Improves latch for breastfeeding

  • Improvement with colic, reflux and digestive trouble

  • Strengthens their immune system and helps fight common childhood illnesses

  • Aids in proper neurodevelopment and growth

BENEFITS FOR CHILDREN
 

  • Promote healthy spinal alignment

  • Improves focus and behavior and boosts brain development.

  • Improves digestion, sleep, and immune system function

  • Reduce the symptoms and occurrence of ear infections

  • Promotes athletic performance and reduces the risk of injury

  • Improves the symptoms of growing pains!
