How Pediatric Chiropractic Care Can Help Your Child
Children often experience body dysfunction that affects their growth. Children are vulnerable to injury as they spend most of their time playing and learning new things. Trauma in children can lead to headaches, sleeplessness, asthma, and earaches. Fortunately, our team at Dr. Lee Goozdich D.C. in Ahwatukee will help improve your child's health and general wellness.
What Does Pediatric Chiropractic Entail?
When you bring your child to our clinic, we will provide a thorough analysis to ensure your child receives the care they need for optimal growth and development. What our chiropractor checks include:
- Pelvic positioning
- Sensory processing
- Muscle tone
- Spinal alignment
- Nervous system functionality
- Reflexes
After this initial examination and depending on whether your child is a good candidate for chiropractic treatment, our chiropractor will work with your child to create the best treatment plan for him or her. Here are a few ways we can help improve your child's life through our chiropractic care.
Improves Sleep
Children of all ages need ample sleep time to improve their general growth physically and mentally. Infants with spinal dysfunction get sleep disruption during the day and night. Spinal misalignments also result in tight muscles, which cause insomnia. Our functional medicine can alleviate spinal misalignments to improve the well-being of children.
Helps in the Treatment of Certain Conditions
Our prenatal chiropractor treats a variety of childhood illnesses, including chronic cases of migraine, colic, and earaches. An adjustment is made to drain fluids in children with sinus congestion and earaches. In the case of asthma, chiropractic treatment is done to realign nerves affecting the lungs, diaphragm, and bronchioles. This adjustment enables the babies to have a clear respiratory pathway.
Reduces Risk of Injury
Babies and young children are more prone to injury. One of the best ways of preventing injury is ensuring they receive regular chiropractic attention. Our chiropractor helps children have a smooth transition during growth phases such as crawling, sitting up, and walking.
Improves Good Healthy Living
Brain function is greatly improved when a child's spine is properly aligned. Having an aligned spine and neck aids in clearing pathways, enhancing the functionality of the nervous system.
