"Chiropractic care for my child? Why? His back doesn't bother him." Chiropractors hear this all the time... All parents appreciate the importance of having check-ups for their child's teeth, eyes, ears, nose, and throat, but when it comes to a spinal check-up, they do not know it is necessary.

Regular spinal check-ups for your child can be some of the most important check-ups in their life.

The spine is the lifeline of the body. Inside the spinal column is the spinal cord containing billions of nerve fibers traveling to every part of your child's body, sending messages and energy from the brain regulating your child's health. If there is any nerve blockage along the spinal cord then a state of disease will develop. Disease causes a generalized weakening of your child's body which can manifest in your child as a lowered resistance to illnesses such as colic or ear infection as well as hyperactivity or other behavioral disorders.

Chiropractic adjusting techniques are modified to fit a child's size and weight. The force needed to adjust an infant or a child is so little that infants are often adjusted while sleeping and do not even wake up.

Parents who have their children adjusted often report that their children seem healthier than other children their own age.

HOW CAN A CHILD'S SPINE LOSE ALIGNMENT?

Vertebral subluxations, or spinal nerve blockage, have many causes in infants and children. They can even be caused during the birth process by obstetrical procedures. Babies were meant to be pushed and guided out of the birth canal not pulled out. The resulting spinal subluxations can be the cause of newborn health complaints like colic, ear infections, and allergic reactions even poor appetite and unexplained cryingChiropractic

Childhood is a very physical time. The falls, accidents, jumping and running are all part of childhood and they can cause spinal subluxations. It would be wise for all parents to have their children's spine checked regularly.

A Family Affair Gratification for a chiropractor is seeing an entire family in the office for regular adjustments. Families discover the joy of the father having more energy and fewer digestive problems. There is joy for the mom, whose headaches and menstrual cramps no longer occur… and best of all, the children do not get sick as often, miss fewer school days, and have better posture. There is recent documentation from studies outlining the effectiveness of Chiropractic on emotional and learning disabilities along with other neurological problems in children.
