Childhood is a time of constant growth, moving, and learning. However, all of this movement can cause spinal misalignments and other issues in the musculoskeletal system, which can negatively impact your child's nervous system and overall health. Misalignments can cause headaches, asthma, ear infections, and more. If your child is suffering from any health issues or you are looking for professional support as they grow and develop, our team at Elan Wellness Center in Tampa is here to help.
What Is Pediatric Chiropractic Care?
Pediatric chiropractic care involves adjusting and manipulating a child's musculoskeletal system to relieve pain and discomfort naturally. It also helps speed up the body's healing process by removing interference from the nervous system.
What Age Should a Child See a Chiropractor?
Pediatric chiropractic care is not limited to children experiencing issues. Our chiropractic services can also benefit infants as young as a few months old. Regardless of their age, if your baby or teenager is experiencing any pain or discomfort, visit us for a proper assessment and effective treatment.
Pediatric Chiropractic Care Practices
Our pediatric chiropractor knows how to treat children and understands that kids need gentler adjustments than the average adult. We also understand that children may be more hyperactive than usual after treatment. Pediatric chiropractic care is more complex and requires experience as children's bodies are fragile.
What Conditions Can Be Treated with Pediatric Chiropractic Care?
Pediatric chiropractic care can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including:
- ADD (Attention-Deficit Disorder) and ADHD
- Allergies and asthma
- Digestive issues
- Ear infections
- Headaches and migraines
- Learning disorders
- Scoliosis and other bone deformities
Benefits of Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Taking your child to our chiropractor offers various benefits, including:
Improved Sleep
Chiropractic care helps remove interference to the nervous system that can lead to sleep disruptions such as insomnia.
Decreased Headaches and Migraines
Chiropractic care has been found to reduce the frequency of migraines and headaches.
Decreased Allergy and Asthma Symptoms
Chiropractic adjustments keep the respiratory system clear and reduce the effects of allergies. This helps kids avoid early respiratory issues, which are pretty common at a young age.
Improved Concentration and Focus
Chiropractic care helps the body heal itself by removing interference to the nervous system. This can lead to children being able to focus and concentrate better in and outside the classroom.
