CHIROPRACTIC FOR BABIES AND CHILDREN
Pediatric Chiropractic Care | Chiropractic for Kids
Chiropractic kids have the best start to life! As children grow and develop they will experience stressors on their bodies. These stressors can come from the many falls and tumbles they experience while learning to crawl, learning to walk, or going through their many growth spurts. Maintaining alignment of the spine during these developmental years allows their body to maintain optimal nervous system health and can help improve behavior, sleep, and immune system function, and many other health concerns.
Overtime these stressors can contribute to ailments such as such as colic, infantile reflux, trouble latching, recurrent ear infections, and bed wetting, amongst many others. We strongly encourage parents to get their children checked so they grow up with healthy spine structure and optimal nervous system function. We love seeing kiddos in the office so we can help them grow happy, healthy lives from the inside-out!

What to Expect at Your Child's Visit
Let’s be honest… going to the doctor’s office as a kiddo can be scary! We aim to gain your child’s trust before we perform any examinations or adjustments. Our team may engage your kiddo in play, ask them silly questions to get them to laugh and feel more comfortable, or show them a toy we have in the office. If they’re really lucky, and like dogs, they’ll get to meet our Office English Bulldog, Arlo, who is our patient engagement technician!
When you come into the office, we will start with a consultation to learn about your concerns for your child’s health and what your goals are in bringing them to a pediatric chiropractor.
Following the consultation, you and your kiddo will head into an examination room where one of our doctors will first connect with your child and earn their trust. We highly prioritize your child having a good experience with us. Vita Chiropractic is a healing experience, and that cannot be built on a foundation of forcing treatment or a bad/stressful first interaction. The initial examination may take 45 minutes to an hour.
Once your child is comfortable, we will examine him or her for spinal health, misalignments in the spine, any areas of nerve interference or subluxation patterns to work on addressing the issues. If you and your child are ready, we’ll adjust them following the exam. The adjustments are very gentle. In fact, we adjust kiddos as young as a few days old!
