Many people are surprised by the fact that we treat children. We rarely think of the stress of childbirth, in which a child's head and neck is pulled and twisted, against the resistance of the birth canal, in order to bring the baby into the world. Then, as the child grows, there are the falls and spills associated with learning to walk and playing with siblings. It is therefore essential to check the child's spine for subluxations, as this can cause neck pain and headaches in children in much the same way as in adults. In children headaches will manifest as irritability, incessant crying for no apparent reason, and interrupted sleep. Other common symptoms that children suffer from that chiropractic can help with are colic, reflux, and bed wetting.

Correcting subluxations in children is important during times of growth. It is very rare to grow symmetrically, and this imbalance can become more permanent if not corrected. Adjusting subluxations in children is easier than in adults and it often takes a lot less time.

Do your children a favour and make sure that their backs are working correctly.
