Children and Chiropractic

I have been adjusting infants and children for years at my Mesa AZ Chiropractic office. There is a unique way to adjust children too. Have you ever seen it done before? It is incredible! Unfortunately, there are some who do not know that kids need chiropractic too. To those who have discovered its benefits for their children, there is a high satisfaction rate. According to the toyourhealth.com website “… a recent survey by the International Chiropractic Pediatrics Association, chiropractic care of children is associated with high levels of patient/parent satisfaction and a near-perfect safety record.”

Spinal adjustments for children are very safe. The technique for adjusting infants is different however than that for adjusting toddlers, adolescents, teenagers and adults. Again, toyourhealth.com says “Chiropractic care for children is very different than chiropractic care for adults. The adjustments are much softer and gentler because the child’s joints are looser and easier to move. The procedure is quite comfortable and children often look forward to their chiropractic treatment. In addition, children generally heal much more quickly than adults, so typically require just a few treatments to restore normal motion to their joints, and thus restore normal function to their nervous systems and related end organs.”

To find a chiropractor with the training and skill to adjust infants, small children and the whole family you don’t have to look far – just give me a call!
