What to Expect During Your Visits

  1. Warm Welcome: Our clinic is designed to be a welcoming space where children feel at ease. From our friendly staff to our child-friendly treatment rooms, every detail aims to make your visit a positive experience.
  2. Initial Consultation: This is the first time we’re meeting; we want to build a rapport with your child to make sure they’re relaxed (in case they’re nervous). We’ll discuss their health history, any concerns you have, and what you hope to achieve through Chiropractic care.
  3. Comprehensive Examination: We’ll conduct a thorough (and comfortable) examination to assess your child’s posture, spinal alignment, and overall musculoskeletal health.For infants, it will be some tummy time while we do our checks. If your child is older, we may have them play while we assess them. The entire time, our focus is to make sure they’re happy to be here!
  4. Personalised Care Plan: Based on our findings, we’ll create a personalized care plan tailored to your child’s needs. This plan will outline the recommended treatments, frequency of visits, and any at-home exercises or activities to support your child’s progress.
  5. Ongoing Support: We’ll work with you to monitor your child’s progress and adjust the care plan as needed. This is not a one-time plan; it evolves as your child’s progress evolves. Our team is always available to provide support and answer any questions you might have.

Conditions Our Chiropractor Can Help With?

It can be quite distressing watching your child deal with certain persistent health issues. Your child’s pediatrician will always be your first point of contact. After they rule out major issues, you may want to turn to more natural, non-invasive ways to optimize your child’s health.

Here are some common issues that our Chiropractic clinic can address:

  • Breastfeeding Difficulties: Here, Chiropractic care can help your infant by addressing any spinal misalignments that may be affecting their ability to turn and latch properly.
  • Torticollis: Abnormal neck positioning can often be improved with gentle Chiropractic adjustments.
  • Postural Issues: As children grow, they may develop postural problems such as mild scoliosis, kyphosis, or forward head posture. Chiropractic care can help correct these issues and promote proper spinal alignment.
  • Sports Injuries: Active children are prone to sports-related injuries. Chiropractic care can aid in recovery from injuries like Little League Elbow, sprains, strains, and joint pain and even help prevent future injuries.

Chiropractic care focuses on ensuring the proper function of the nervous system, which controls and coordinates all other systems in the body. By maintaining spinal health, we aim to support overall wellness and help your child lead healthier lives.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is Chiropractic care safe for children?

Yes, chiropractic care is safe for children when performed by an experienced Chiropractor. We use gentle, non-invasive techniques specifically designed for growing bodies.

When should I bring my child for Chiropractic care?

You can bring your child at any time for chiro care. 

As your child grows, especially during those big growth spurts, regular check-ups can ensure their spine and nervous system are developing properly. 

If your child has a fall, an injury, or shows signs of poor posture, back or neck pain, headaches, digestive issues, or trouble sleeping, a gentle Chiropractic adjustment can make a big difference. 

Even without specific issues, regular visits can be part of a healthy routine to keep your child feeling great. By addressing these things early on, you can help your child!

How often will my child need to see the Chiropractor?

The frequency of visits depends on your child’s specific needs and the care plan we develop together. Some children may benefit from more frequent visits initially, followed by maintenance visits to support long-term health.

Will the adjustments hurt my child?

No, we use a very specific and super gentle techniques of adjustments for children. Most children find the experience to be comfortable and enjoyable, so much so that they look forward to their next visit!

Do I need a referral from my Pediatrician?

No, you don’t need a referral to see a Chiropractor. However, we’re happy to work in collaboration with your child’s Pediatrician or other healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive care.

What is the difference between youth Chiropractic care and adult Chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care for youth can differ from adult Chiropractic care in many ways:

  • Techniques Used: Our Chiropractic techniques for youth are much gentler than those used for adults. The adjustments are carefully tailored to the delicate and developing structures of a child’s body.
  • Approach and Communication: Our Chiropractors are skilled in working with children and creating a comfortable environment. They use kid-friendly language and approaches to make the experience enjoyable for young patients.
  • Frequency and Duration: Children typically respond to Chiropractic care more quickly than adults. As a result, they may require fewer visits and shorter adjustment sessions to achieve the desired outcomes.

Is Chiropractic care covered by insurance?

Many insurance plans cover Chiropractic care, but it’s best to check with your provider to understand your specific coverage.
