The Benefits of Chiropractic Care
for kids
A proper functioning nervous system in children is vital for
optimal health. The brain, through the spinal cord
communicates to every cell, tissue, and organ in the body.
When the spine is healthy, the nervous system is capable of 100%
function and 100% healing. Children, from birth require, like
adults, complete nervous input for maximal growth, healing, and
adaptation to their environment. Natural pregnancy and the
birth can result in stress to the baby's delicate spinal structure
and can diminish the working potential of the nervous system.
In addition to the natural traumas of birth, obstetric intervention
may introduce damaging forces to the same vital structures.
The first signs of an injury may include irritability, difficulty
with digestion, and colic, for example. Later the child may
show symptoms of asthma, allergies, ear infections and
attention-deficit-disorder to name a few. Dr Daphne is a
