Pediatric Chiropractic

Birth is tough work for both mothers and babies. There are a lot of pressures and forces being exerted onto your baby during their journey into the world. A recent study (Frymann) stated that 90% of newborns suffered the effects of birth trauma: associated strain through the neck and cranial areas following birth.

Dr. Erin and Dr. Sarah have both completed extensive continued education in chiropractic for the pediatric population by obtaining their CACCP. This further education is designed to expand their professional ability in adjusting techniques, evaluation, and assessment of different stages of development: from pregnancy, birth, infancy and throughout childhood. More parents are discovering the many benefits associated with chiropractic care throughout childhood. Our doctors provide special care for infants, children, and pregnant mothers.

Although many of these signs and symptoms are what drive families to get their little ones chiropractic care, the ultimate reason that they benefit from chiropractic care is because we remove the interference to the nervous system through the adjustment. Because of the adjustment their nervous system is able to communicate properly allowing their bodies to experience health and healing.

Common reasons families bring their children into our office:

  • Ear Infections

  • Constipation

  • Breastfeeding Issues

  • Torticollis

  • Plagiocephaly

  • Colic

  • Lip and Tongue Ties

Why Babies?

As your baby is developing, one of the first structures to form is their nervous system through their brain and spinal cord which direct the rest of their body to develop. Studies have found that following birth 95% of infants have a subluxation causing interference to their nervous system. This tells us how crucial it is that children are checked by a chiropractor to make sure that their nervous system is functioning optimally to direct their growth and development properly!
