Pediatric and Prenatal Chiropractic

Why Does My Child Need Chiropractic Care?

With all the changes in the woman’s womb, and the engagement of the baby in the birth canal, giving birth is arguably the most physical experience of all. As a result, spinal misalignments can occur during the process. Early treatment is essential to prevent dis-ease in the future.

Learning to walk, riding a bike or climbing trees are all opportunities for traumas to occur. By checking the child’s structure as early as possible, we can make sure it grows the way it should.

Chiropractic is natural healthcare for children. Adjustments align your child’s spine and skeletal system to relieve pressure and stress on their nervous system. It’s a very gentle, painless procedure; there’s no cracking or popping.

Some benefits your child may experience are improved sleep, better digestion, reduce GERD and reflux, a healthier immune system, and relief from allergy and asthma symptoms.

Is It Safe and Does It Hurt?

Chiropractic for children is safe and very gentle. There’s no twisting, cracking or popping. Kids love chiropractic because they feel so good after the adjustment.

Chiropractic care allows our bodies to function at a high level. This is even more important during pregnancy. Super safe and effective, we use light force techniques to adjust our moms.

Making adjustments to the pelvis can relieve some of Mom’s discomfort. By creating extra space for the baby, reflux symptoms may reduce. Other issues that may benefit from adjustment are headaches, back, chest and neck pain, sciatica and tight hip muscles.

Chiropractic care during the entire pregnancy can make this special time easier on Mom. Better pelvis and spine movement typically make the labor and delivery process shorter and less painful. Regular adjustments can help mom to have a natural delivery and a healthier baby. Dr. Morgan had two home births under chiropractic care without any complications.

Moms have also found chiropractic to help with morning sickness, maintaining good health, and getting better sleep.
