CHIROPRACTIC & CHILDREN

CHIROPRACTIC FOR BABIES

After poor in-utero positioning or sometimes difficult deliveries (poor positioning, use of instruments) of the newborn, some dysfunctions can be found.

These dysfunctions can have very diverse consequences, such as torticollis, plagiocephaly… or can sometimes affect the sleep and digestion of the child.

By applying very gentle and precise pressure, the chiropractor is able to detect and help correct these disorders from the earliest age.

CHIROPRACTIC FOR CHILDREN & TEENAGERS

Learning to hold their head, to sit up, to crawl and then to walk, carrying a heavy schoolbag, spending long hours sitting down, getting involved in a sporting activity …

During the first months and years, your child is in constant grow and development. With all this activities the skeleton is under pression and can be sometimes harmed.

Later on, teenagers become more sedentary and adopt poor posture in front of the television, their computer or tablet, thus encouraging the appearance of musculoskeletal disorders.

During this period, the body changes really fast, thus favouring the appearance of vertebral dysfunctions such as the scoliotic attitude or true scoliosis.

Chiropractic care is recommended during this period, especially if your child has pain or postural problems.
