Kids Need a Functioning Nervous System Just Like Their Parents!

 

Chiropractic care for children offers your family a solid foundation for wellness.

      5 Principles of Chiropractic

1.Our bodies are intelligent and self-healing

2.Our brain controls healing

3.Our brain communicates with our body through our nervous system (spinal cord, spinal nerves, peripheral nerves)

4 If there is interference in the communication, optimal function and healing doesn’t take place- We call this a Subluxation.

5.We are trained to detect and correct subluxation to allow your body to heal properly, functional optimally, and to allow you and your family to live to your fullest potential!

What Symptoms Mean

Symptoms are simply our body’s way of telling us our health is off track, and we have lost homeostasis.

Why Kids Need to be Checked

Children’s brains need to know what is girl_female_kid_223733going on in their bodies and their environment.  Our Central Nervous System (brain and spinal cord) control our gut health, and our gut health controls our Immune System health.

Over 60% of all neurological development occurs before your child’s 1st birthday.  This is why it is important for your child to get checked during the first year of their life.

“Subluxation alone is a rational reason for Chiropractic care throughout a lifetime from birth”

-Lee Hadley, MD

Adjustments for Kids

We don’t adjust kids the same as adults.  Their bones are softer and they have less muscle.  For really young ones, including babies, the pressure is no more than you would apply to your own eye.

Chiropractic care is about the importance of proper spinal and nervous system function to support your innate abilities to adapt to the environment and maintain and/or regain homeostasis and health.
