/> Conditions Chiropractic Can Treat

Infants

Every baby is born with a brand new nervous system. Unfortunately, that nervous system can sometimes have a bit of trouble adjusting to life outside of Mommy's belly. Chiropractic treatments can help to alleviate interference with the baby's nervous system and allow it to function more effectively reducing the discomfort your little one may be experiencing. Additionally, as beautiful as birth is, it can also be quite traumatic. Factors as simple as the babies position during birth, a long labor, a short labor, assistance during delivery, or a cesarean delivery (and so many more!) all have the potential to cause injury to a newborn. Sometimes unexplained crying can quite simply and easily be alleviated by treating a sore muscle. The sooner these issues are addressed, the less likely they are to cause any further complicating factors or long term conditions. Common conditions in infants that chiropractic care can help alleviate include:

  • Colic
  • Reflux
  • Birth Trauma/Torticollis
  • Breastfeeding and Latch Difficulties
  • General Fussiness

Children

Children are some of the most resilient creatures we know! But the truth is they are so busy discovering their surroundings and enjoying life that they often don't take a break to tell you something hurts or is wrong. Just think of how many times your kiddos have taken a tumble, and just gotten back up and kept going...they are bound to have some residual aches and pains. Chiropractic treatments can help to keep these smaller traumas from adding up into bigger deals later. Additionally, chiropractic treatments can help to alleviate the discomfort of or correct several childhood conditions. Common conditions in children that chiropractic care can help alleviate include::

  • Bumps and Falls
  • Scoliosis
  • Gait Training/re-balancing
  • Ear Infections
  • Upper Respiratory Conditions
  • Processing Disorders (including ADHD, ADD, and Autism spectrum)
  • General Wellness

Pregnancy

Quite easily said, pregnancy is hard work for you and your body! I mean you are growing another person in there! The body is amazing at its ability to accommodate the changes that occur during pregnancy, but that doesn't mean that you don't feel it. Every woman is different, as is every pregnancy. Chiropractic care is a safe, medicine free alternative to pain control during pregnancy. In addition, ensuring proper positioning and function of the pelvis can lead to an easier, shorter labor and delivery. Common conditions during pregnancy that chiropractic care can help alleviate include:

  • Low Back and Pelvic Pain
  • Rib Pain
  • Sciatica and Sciatic-like Pain
  • Pregnancy Induced Carpal Tunnel
  • Optimal Pelvic Alignment and Balance (to encourage best positioning of the baby)
