Pediatric Chiropractor

How can Chiropractic care help your child?

Why would it be beneficial to have your child evaluated and adjusted by a Pediatic Chiropractor? Foremost, the first biggest traumatic experience in a child’s life is the birthing process. If spinal misalignments are left there as an infant then these misalignment may lead to developmental problems as they get older. A Pediatric Chiropractor will evaluate the spine for subluxation. And if necessary, a very light adjustment to the spinal column to help correct the misalignment.

What is a subluxation?

A Pediatric Chiropractor’s main focus in the spine is to adjust and correct subluxations. A subluxation is a misalignment of a vertebra in the spine in relation to the vertebrae above and/or below, which then impinges on the nervous system. Subluxations may lead to many developmental issues in children. This is why it’s so important to evaluate your child’s spine at an early age.

The cornerstone of chiropractic health treatment is spinal adjustments, often called the “adjustment”. The adjustment may involve a gentle pressure, or a quick thrust to restore normal motion to joints that have become restricted or “locked”. Chiropractors have the most extensive experience and education in manipulation, performing 94% of the spinal manipulations in the United States.

Pediatric Chiropractic Techniques

Although most patients receive traditional manual (“hands-on”) adjustments, we also offer “low force” adjustments, with a highly advanced instrument. Some patients are familiar with these instrument adjustment techniques, which are often known to as “activator”, “pro-adjustor”, or “impulse adjusting”. These low-force adjustments are gentle and precise. Experience has shown us that instrument adjusting can be effective when in combination with manual adjusting. In addition, instrument adjusting is an alternative to manual adjusting. The doctor will be happy to discuss with you which adjusting techniques would be best for your child.
