Chiropractic care is appropriate for children of all ages. Children experience rapid growth and development during the few years of life. It is a time when musculoskeletal growth occurs quickly and often in ‘spurts’, putting stress on their young bodies. Though children may not experience pain or obvious complications from injuries, even the tiniest subluxations may worsen and cause pain later in life if left untreated. Similarly, few teens will complain of back or neck pain the way that adults might. However, the damage that causes pain in adults is often incurred during one’s youth. Fortunately, children and teens generally respond faster and more effectively to Chiropractic treatment than adults do and early treatment may also help prevent spine and nerve problems that could become symptomatic in the future.

Some of the most common reasons children and teens seek chiropractic care are:

• Sports Related Injuries

• Colic

• Bed wetting

• Allergies & Asthma
