Kids and Chiropractic

Kids need to be adjusted too! Kids can have a subluxation as early as birth. Adjusting a child is not difficult and they make great patients. A child's spine is much easier to adjust than an adults. They have not had the long-standing subluxations, their muscles are usually not a tense and they are usually more relaxed in general than adults.

Not only are kids easier to adjust, but also in most cases, they hold their adjustment for longer periods of time and need to come in alot less than adults. However, with falls, accidents and the generally active lives most kids experience, regular check-ups are important.

Chiropractic care is essential for good health and for reaching your full potential in life, so logically it makes sense to have kids adjusted at an early age and just checked so they can reach their optimal health.
