Children and Chiropractic/Chiropaedics

Children; http://www.activator.com/research_04/page_030.asp
Spinal injury can begin from the forces and stresses of birth, especially if forceps or suction are used. Falls from prams and high chairs, tumbles down steps, constant bumps to the head and bottom whilst learning to walk, falls out of trampolines, sporting and car accidents all contribute to accumulated stress on the framework of a child’s body, contributing to damage and imbalance of spinal and other joints, ligaments and muscles.

We all know that childhood years are crucial to our development, and if problems are not resolved then we often carry them through life.

It is not normal for children to have headaches, constant ear infections and allergies or growing pains, nor are they likely to grow out of them.

Clinical experience, backed by an increasing amount of scientific research has shown that a wide variety of childhood problems may respond to Chiropractic treatment.

These include:

  • Colic
  • Irritability
  • Ear infections
  • Learning difficulties
  • Headache
  • Visual problems
  • Recurrent throat infections
  • Digestive disorders
  • Scoliosis
  • Hyperactivity
