Why Chiropractic

Children and infants are always discovering new things through play, as a result they are more likely to experience traumas from falls and bumps. Unlike adults, children have a harder time understanding and expressing their pain or discomfort. Chiropractic can help to relive tension form everyday stressors and increase a child’s body awareness. Meaning it is not only helpful after an injury but can help to prevent the injury from occurring.

How does  it work

By stimulating biological systems, promoting movement and healthy function. Chiropractic care for children looks very different than for adults. We take careful assessment of joints of the the spine, movement of food thorough the digestive tract, and even movement through the lymph system. Chiropractic care is a modality to help the body be healthy.
