Thinking about getting chiropractic care for your child, but unsure about what it all entails?
As parents, we are responsible for our kids. We want to look after them the best way we can, and that includes providing them with good medical care – including chiropractic.
Here are four common questions parents ask when wanting to bring their kids in to see a chiropractor:
Children And Chiropractic FAQs
WHY?
Developing spines are susceptible to trauma from many childhood activities and games. These microtraumas can result in pressure on the spinal bones and nerves. What’s worse is it may not be detected as pain or malfunction for years.
WHEN?
- After Birth: The stressors and potential trauma of the birth process.
- Learning To Crawl And Walk: Knocks, bumps, and falls are aplenty.
- Schooling: School bags, stress, and sitting posture can quickly ruin backs.
- Using Tech: Smart phones, tablets, and laptops are the leading cause of bad posture and headaches, as well as neck, shoulder, and hand pain.
- Teenage Growth Spurts: Check on their posture and scoliosis.
