Pediatric Chiropractic

Your child’s developing brain and body go through rapid and complex changes from birth through adolescence. Physical growth, neurological development, and emotional regulation all place high demands on the nervous system, which coordinates every function in their body. Even early experiences like birth, learning to crawl or walk, and minor falls can create imbalances in the spine that disrupt this vital communication system. Pediatric chiropractic care gently supports spinal alignment and nervous system function, helping children adapt more smoothly to growth milestones, improve sleep, boost immunity, and promote calm, regulated behavior. Supporting their foundation early on helps set the stage for lifelong health and resilience.

Questions About Pediatric Care

Are adjustments safe for babies and children?
Absolutely. Pediatric chiropractic care uses extremely gentle, age-appropriate techniques that support your child’s nervous system and development. Our adjustments are much softer than traditional chiropractic methods—often using just the pressure you'd apply to check the ripeness of a tomato.

What experience do your doctors have in pediatric chiropractic?
Our doctors have extensive training in pediatric care through specialized coursework, hands-on internships, and years of clinical experience. We are deeply committed to providing expert, effective, and compassionate care for children of all ages.

When should we bring our child in for chiropractic care?
Many parents choose to bring their newborns in within hours or days after birth to help address birth-related trauma and tension from intrauterine positioning. From infancy through childhood, chiropractic care can support healthy development, milestone achievement, and overall well-being.

What conditions or concerns can chiropractic care help with?
Chiropractic care can support children experiencing colic, constipation, ear infections, sleep difficulties, developmental delays, sensory processing issues, and more. It also helps improve nervous system regulation, which plays a vital role in emotional, physical, and cognitive health.

Does my child need to have a health problem to benefit from care?
Not at all. Many families choose chiropractic as a proactive approach to wellness, helping their children grow, adapt, and thrive with a well-functioning nervous system.
