Chiropractic care is known for helping adults and the elderly alleviate the symptoms of conditions like arthritis and herniated discs. However, it is also possible for children to benefit from customized chiropractic treatments. Our professional chiropractic services at Tree City Chiropractic in Tualatin, OR, are suitable for patients of all ages and can help your child relieve any stress or pain they may be experiencing. 

Why should my child see a chiropractor?

According to the American Medical Association, 11 percent of chiropractic patients are under the age of 18. Children can still experience limited head or neck mobility, irregular sleep patterns or insomnia, neck or back pain, and uneven shoulders. Chiropractic care can help adjust vertebral subluxations in your child’s spine that may be causing pain or discomfort, and ensure that they are on the path to optimal growth. 

Treatments can also alleviate the symptoms of scoliosis, asthma, headaches, growing pains, and constipation. If your child plays sports or participates in athletic activities like gymnastics, chiropractic can be a great solution for injuries. 

When should I bring my child in for chiropractic care? 

Chiropractic care can be adjusted to fit the needs of any age. In fact, chiropractic treatments can even be administered to infants to ensure that their spines are developing properly. If you believe your child may be too young for chiropractic care, don’t hesitate to reach out to our office. Our staff can listen to your concerns and help you determine your child’s candidacy for chiropractic care. 

Is children's chiropractic care safe?

Chiropractic care is adjusted to meet the needs of each patient and is therefore completely safe. Before your chiropractor ever performs an adjustment, they will evaluate your child’s physical condition and create a customized recovery routine. Research also shows that chiropractic care carries no risks for children and is usually painless.
