PEDIATRIC CHIROPRACTIC

Kids are very special to us. The road to true health and a long life begins in childhood.

Pediatric chiropractic as at the core of what we do at Iowa Family Chiropractic. We believe that setting your kids up for a long, healthy life has to start early on. With any health care provider, you want to know that your doctor is trained in pediatric care. Our chiropractors have undergone additional education to become experts in pediatric chiropractic adjustments for children. The atmosphere in our offices is family friendly and fun so kids LOVE visiting to get adjusted.

A Healthy Life Starts At Birth

Birth is unavoidably stressful for your little one, which alone can cause a disturbance in the nervous system. Because of this, newborns are especially susceptible to spinal misalignment and stress on the nerves. This may not be apparent initially, but if left uncorrected, it could cause problems in the years to come.

When your child’s body is stressed in any way, normal spinal alignment may be lost, and growth and development may be altered. This may show up in many forms, such as scoliosis, pain, asthma, or a digestive disorder. To ensure that your child’s body is functioning properly, it is best to have their spine checked as a normal part of postnatal care with mom.

For older children who have not had their spines checked, the sooner they are examined the more likely they are to reach their full healthy potential. The earlier spinal subluxations are corrected, the more quickly an individual can begin to enjoy true health.

The bones of the spine surround and protect the delicate spinal nerves that connect the brain to the body. We need to take care of these bones before they cause problems (just like your dentist takes care of the bones in your mouth before they cause a toothache).

If your kids have not yet been checked, please schedule a screening for your next visit.

Set Your Kids Up For A Happy Healthy Life

Pediatric chiropractic care for your children is vital to their health and is an absolute necessity for their development and for actualization of their full potential in every area of life.

The nervous system is in control of the growth, repair and function of every part of the body, and it sends messages to each and every tissue and organ, telling it how to work. When the spine is misaligned, it interferes with the course of these messages, and the body may not appropriately respond. Pediatric chiropractors are able to remove these interferences with gentle adjustments to your child’s developing spine, allowing your child’s nervous system to function at maximum capacity and respond suitably to environmental stresses.

Health is not the absence of symptoms, but rather the ability to react and adapt to the events encountered in life.

My entire family gets adjusted regularly at Iowa Family Chiropractic. Our two boys and daughter have been patients since they were days old. Whether it’s an issue with our new born nursing or a sports injury for our 5 y/o we trust IFC with our families health and wellness.  Our family is VERY active, there are a lot of falls, bumps and bruises. With regular care at IFC we know that those minor accidents won’t later result in serious issues for our kids.
