Chiropractic Care For Infants And Babies - Pediatric Chiropractic

1. Chiropractic Care For Infants And Babies - Pediatric Chiropractic As a parent of a newborn, you want to ensure that your child is getting the best care possible in order to have the best possible start to their life. The list of dos and don’ts for new parents goes on and on until we are tired, but there is one thing that has a significant benefit, carries no guilt, and gives your infant an excellent start in life that you may not even have thought about: early chiropractic therapy. By seeing a chiropractor for a gentle, soothing, and fun treatment session soon after delivery, you might avoid a great deal of the usual illnesses that affect kids and worry parents.

2. A common misconception with chiropractic care is that treatment is only prescribed in later stages in life; when we are injured and in pain. However, why wait until problems arise to seek chiropractic care? Here at Foundations Family Chiropractic Clinic, Dr Grewal can provide early intervention for your child that can prevent problems from developing in the first place.

3. Benefits Of Infant Chiropractic Care Central nervous system tension is brought on by the spinal trauma encountered at birth (the nerves that run through the spine and connect to the brain). Even slight misalignments in a baby’s spine can cause disrupted nerve signals, which can cause a variety of childhood illnesses and developmental delays that we consider “normal” — such as ear infections, sore throats, coughs, colds, and headaches — as well as clumsiness, motor delays, and other issues. The good news is that chiropractic care can make your baby much more comfortable and significantly less likely to experience these ‘typical’ but unpleasant problems through mild spine realignment and cranial therapy.

4. Children Who Receive Chiropractic Care, Report The Following: Improved Sleep Improved Behavior Improved Mood Improved Immune System Function It is better to raise healthy children than to attempt to solve these issues when they are adults. This is why we emphasize the need of establishing healthy spine habits in children by bringing them in for regular chiropractic care.

5. Indications That Your Child May Need Chiropractic Care Although looked as as normal ‘fussy behavior’, the following signs can indicate whether your child is suffering from discomfort: The Infant suckles well from one breast, but not the other. The infant suckles briefly and then appears to sleep before taking a full feed. The suck is either unusually weak or painfully (for the mother) strong. Coughing or choking is apparent whilst feeding. The infant naturally holds his, or her, head to one side. The infant is unsettled and dislikes being put down onto his, or her, back. The infant does not sleep well and frequently wakes/cries for no obvious reason. These are all possible indications of stress on the nervous system. Come visit us in Cloverdale, Surrey and Dr Grewal will be happy to assist and identify any problems and gently correct them leaving your little one comfortable, relaxed and stress free.

6. Is Chiropractic Care For Infants And Babies Safe? The most priceless thing in the world is your baby, therefore it seems sense that you’re worried. Many studies have been done to demonstrate the safety, efficacy, and benefits of chiropractic care for infants, and most of the time the newborn actually appreciates the physical contact. Similar to how an adult would be treated, but with considerably less pressure and a greater focus on soft tissue work. When we are adjusting a child we use the same pressure to adjust your child as we would use to check a tomato’s ripeness. By ensuring that any obstruction is removed from the nervous system, routine chiropractic treatment for children is a safe, non-addictive technique of assisting your child in staying healthy and will give your family a solid foundation for health and wellness. This is why it’s so important that your kids develop healthy spinal habits at a young age. For the best pediatric chiropractic treatment, visit us at Family Foundations Chiropractic Clinic, located in Cloverdale, Surrey, and Dr Grewal will be more than happy to assist.
