Pediatric Chiropractic
If a child’s spine isn’t healthy, their nervous system can’t control communication between the brain and body appropriately, resulting in compromised health. By starting chiropractic care at the youngest age possible—even a few hours old—we strive to remove misalignments (subluxations) from the spine that affect the nervous system.
At Midtown Clinic of Chiropractic, we explain pediatric chiropractic care to parents this way: just as you take your child for regular dental checkups to keep their teeth healthy and free of cavities, you should take them for regular chiropractic checkups to keep their spine and nervous system healthy and free of subluxations.
Care on Their Terms
We’re parents ourselves, and we know that it’s not always possible to ensure your child is in the right mood to go to a doctor’s office. That’s why we have created an environment that’s kid-friendly and welcoming—plus, there are no shots here, so they don’t have to worry about that! Your chiropractor will take their time to build rapport with your child, play with them and help them feel comfortable and relaxed. We have toys, snacks, coloring books, stickers—we want them to love coming to our office!
Adjustments for kiddos are extremely gentle, typically using the drop table or Activator Methods®, low-force techniques that don’t make cracking or popping sounds. We also use soft tissue contact techniques and may do some gentle stretching, especially for little ones in a car accident.
Life-Changing Results
One of our first pediatric patients came to us after his mom noticed the benefits of her own adjustments. Her baby was constipated and cried all the time, so we examined him and discovered issues in his lower spine. After a gentle adjustment, he pooped before leaving the office and has been our patient ever since!
