Pediatric Chiropractic Treatments Are Safe and Effective
Chiropractic care isn’t just for adults–it’s for anyone at any age. Children’s spines experience stress that puts pressure on the nervous system just like adult spines do. That stress may be caused by things like birth trauma, falls, sports injuries, and accidents.
Pediatric chiropractors use the age and weight of their pediatric patients to tailor treatment plans. Far less force is used for adjustments. Instead, light pressure is gently applied to restore mobility and relieve discomfort. This can help with pain relief, immune system disorders, colic, bedwetting, constipation, headaches, scoliosis, GI problems, and more.
Because pediatric chiropractic care is so much more gentle, it’s a safe and effective treatment method that realigns the body, strengthens the immune system, and alleviates symptom severity. It offers a holistic, drug-free alternative for pain management and wellness care.
Safe Treatments
According to the American Chiropractic Association, pediatric chiropractic treatments are safe and effective. Whether your child has sustained an injury or is struggling with a condition or disorder, chiropractic treatment helps realign the body, strengthen the immune system, and alleviate the severity of symptoms.
Holistic & Drug-Free
Chiropractic treatments are gentle and safe for all ages. They are also a drug-free, holistic treatment that differs from traditional medicine. For trauma, sports injuries, and other discomforts that may require pain medications, chiropractic care is a great alternative.
Wellness Care
According to the study, The Safety And Effectiveness Of Pediatric Chiropractic: A Survey of Chiropractors And Parents In A Practice-based Research Network, 46% of children and teens attend chiropractic appointments for “wellness care” purposes. 26% receive treatment for musculoskeletal complaints, with the remaining percentages using chiropractic care to address ENT problems, GI issues, colic, or immune dysfunction.
Gentle Treatments
Chiropractic Care for Babies
When we say chiropractic care is for anyone at any age, we mean it–even for babies! It’s normal for babies to experience some degree of neck or spinal subluxation (a minor or incomplete dislocation) during both vaginal and c-section deliveries. This can result in fussiness, acid reflux, spitting up, difficulty latching, constipation, and colic.
Pediatric chiropractic care for babies is very gentle with no force involved, making it a safe and highly effective treatment option. It’s a great way to help babies adjust from being tightly curled up and restricted in the womb to having space to fully elongate the spine, ligaments, and muscles with minimal stress on the body. It’s especially beneficial for their spines and necks.

Holistic Treatment for Scoliosis
A Holistic Approach to Scoliosis Treatment
The spine naturally has a certain amount of curve to it–it’s not meant to be perfectly straight. That said, some people have spines with abnormal curvature. That condition is known as scoliosis, and it can cause physical and emotional pain and distress. Those with scoliosis may have one shoulder that is higher than another or pain in their shoulder, back, and legs.
The earlier scoliosis is identified and treated, the better the outcome tends to be. Scoliosis gets worse over time, so early treatment is critical. Because you’re the one who sees your child the most, you’re in the best position to notice if your child has scoliosis. Pediatricians can do a scoliosis screening with an x-ray. If the x-ray shows that the spine curves by more than 10 degrees, your child will have a positive scoliosis diagnosis. A curve of 25-35 degrees is classified as significant, while anything over 50 degrees is classified as severe.
Traditional treatment usually involves braces, surgery, or other painful, expensive, invasive treatments. Pediatric chiropractors offer an alternative. Spinal manipulations can improve the spine’s function, structure, and mobility, facilitating postural improvements as supporting muscles get stronger.
