Chiropractic care for children can have dramatic results. A child’s developing spine protects the nervous system, which coordinates every process between the mind and body. Birth is one of the most traumatic events that we will ever have to endure, and can cause the vertebrae in the spine and the bones of the skull to become misaligned. A child’s spine continues to receive the daily stresses and traumas of life as they grow. These forces distort the positioning of the spine and may cause slight pressure on the spinal cord, thus reducing the flow of communication between the mind and the body. These misalignments,known as subluxations, alter how well the nervous system functions and thus how well your child's mind and body function develops.

The Benefits
Paediatric chiropractic improves common childhood symptoms of colic, asthma, and ear infections. Spinal misalignments or abnormalities such as scoliosis can be detected at a very early age thus minimising future problems. Children generally sleep better, so parents can too.
