Children’s Benefit From Chiropractic in Sioux Falls
Doctors like to try to figure out the cause of their patient’s problem. As healthcare advances all professions are starting to understand that they do not have the singular answer to all problems.
Chiropractic care specializes on decompressing the nervous system and allowing the body to heal itself.
Children lead very active lifestyles with lots of bumps and bruises and falls.
Just like proper dental care is vitally important for your child, it is just as important to have their spine checked yearly to make sure that child has not caused any structural problems due to their activity level.
Two Examples of How Chiropractic Can Help Children
Here are two examples of how chiropractic care was able to help children with different health problems.
Example 1
A mother brought in her eight-month child who was suffering from colic since birth. The mother had tried many other options available to treat her son’s colic without any success.
She came to the clinic as a last resort to see if chiropractic might be able to help her child.
The mother brought her child in because she had talked to another mother whose child had colic and had been successfully treated with chiropractic care.
Her child was treated with gentle activator adjustments two times a week for three weeks at which time the mother reported the colic symptoms were 90% better.
Example 2
The second case was a mother who brought her daughter who had been diagnosed with scoliosis at a middle school screening.
X-rays were taken of her which showed scoliosis in her spine. She was treated for three months at which time the curve had decreased by 50%.
These are just two examples of how children respond well to chiropractic care. I would encourage you as a parent to have your child receive a yearly spinal screening to see if any issues have evolved in your child’s spine.
It’s Time To Act For Your Children
If they have any type of accident no matter how minor, I would recommend them getting their spine checked. Treating the problem when it is small is much easier than letting the problem fester over time which only makes the problem much more difficult to treat.
I would encourage you to try chiropractic care to see if decompressing the nerves in your child spine might be able to help them with their health care problems.
