Pediatric Chiropractic Care: Gentle Care for Growing Bodies

As parents, we want the best start possible for our children. Just like regular check-ups with their pediatrician, gentle chiropractic care can support your child's natural development and well-being from their earliest days.

What Makes Pediatric Chiropractic Different?

First, let's clear up a common worry: pediatric chiropractic isn't just adult chiropractic scaled down. When we work with children, we use incredibly gentle techniques specifically designed for their small, growing bodies. The pressure used is often no more than you'd use to test a ripe tomato.

A child's visit to our office looks nothing like an adult's.  Many children actually look forward to their visits—they think they're just playing while we work!

Why Do Children See Chiropractors?

Parents often bring their children to us for support with:

• Sleep challenges
• Nursing and latching difficulties in infants
• Ear discomfort
• Poor posture (especially in this age of devices)
• Sports injuries
• Growing pains
• General wellness care

Think of pediatric chiropractic as preventive maintenance for your child's developing nervous system. Just as you'd take your child to the dentist before they have a cavity, many parents choose regular chiropractic check-ups to support their child's natural growth and development.

Our Approach to Pediatric Care

Every child's treatment plan is unique. Before any care begins, we perform a thorough assessment, taking time to understand your child's health history and your family's goals. We explain everything in clear, simple terms and always welcome your questions.

A typical pediatric visit might include:

• Gentle movement assessments
• Light touch adjustments (no twisting or cracking)
• Playful exercises that support proper development
• Tips for parents about positioning, carrying, and supporting their child's physical development

Safety First

Your child's safety is our highest priority. Dr. Charlie has advanced training in caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. We use evidence-based techniques that are both gentle and effective, always adapting our approach to your child's comfort level and needs.

Partners in Your Child's Health

We believe in working as part of your child's healthcare team. We regularly communicate with pediatricians, occupational therapists, and other specialists to ensure your child receives comprehensive, coordinated care.

When to Start?

Many parents ask when they should begin chiropractic care for their child. The answer varies for each family, but we can evaluate children at any age. Some parents bring their newborns in for gentle assessments, while others wait until their children are older or as specific concerns arise.
