CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENT FOR BABIES/KIDS
Damage to the spine and surrounding joints can occur within the womb. If the baby is not head down, abnormal forces are put on the joints of the spine and other joints. Birth can also be traumatic:
• The head and neck of the infant have been pulled and twisted during the birth process
• The birth process is prolonged
• The delivery process is prolonged
• Forceps, vacuum, or other aids are used during delivery
• C-section
Then, imagine if our adult bodies went through what the body of a child goes through on a daily basis. Falling down numerous times a day while learning to walk, rough-housing with brothers and sisters, getting injured while playing sports, or even sleeping in odd positions. We, as adults, would be in serious pain!
Chiropractic adjustments for children are SAFE, get results, and offers kids unexpected health benefits! The three most common health benefits were: a stronger immune system, better sleep, and improved moods! Let’s keep our children healthy and THRIVING as they are constantly growing and changing!
CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENT FOR PREGNANCY
Chiropractic adjustments can relieve and even prevent discomfort during pregnancy and aid in a more comfortable journey for the expecting mom! The mom’s nervous system is extremely important during pregnancy because it is responsible for the baby’s development. When mom takes care of her nervous system, through chiropractic adjustments, the baby can develop at his/her full potential and both mom and baby benefit! If there is a spinal misalignment, the uterus may not perform at 100% which will slow labor; however, research shows that chiropractic care does reduce labor time!

Lordosis means curvature of the spine. Either too much increase or decrease in the neck curve will alter the position of gravitational force of the head and cause long-term discomfort of the neck.
Facet is the joint between two spinal bones that makes the neck mobile. Due to the alteration of the gravitational force of head weight, more stressful compressive force goes through the facet joint, it may eventually cause inflammation of the facet.
