Chiropractic Care for the Littlest Spines:

Chiropractic care for infants focuses on gentle correction of spinal misalignments (subluxations). These may occur from birth trauma, difficult breastfeeding latch, or rapid physical development. While often painless, subluxations can impact the nervous system.

Infantile Colic: Some studies suggest chiropractic care may improve infantile colic. A 2012 study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics found that spinal manipulation may reduce crying time in infants with colic¹.

Chiropractic Care for Growing Children:

Headaches: A 2016 review in the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association suggested potential benefits of spinal manipulation for pediatric tension-type headaches².

Also, as children grow, chiropractic care may address misalignments from falls, poor posture, or daily activities.

Naturopathic Medicine for Children:

Naturopathy focuses on supporting the body’s inherent healing abilities. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) who specialize in pediatrics use a variety of modalities to address children’s health concerns.
