| Children
and the Chiropractic Lifestyle . . . |

| Even
so-called "natural" birthing methods can
stress a still-developing spine. The resulting irritation
to the nervous system can be the cause of many newborn
health complaints. Colic, unexplained crying, poor
appetite, breathing problems, and allergic reactions
can often be traced to nervous system dysfunction
caused by a malfunctioning spine.
Head
support, followed by crawling, and a baby's first
few steps should be followed by chiropractic checkups.
If neglected, the bumps and falls during this period
of rapid growth may lead to serious spinal deformities
later in life. This can set the stage for scoliosis,
"growing pains," and a weakened immune
system response. |

Chiropractic adjusting techniques are modified
to fit a child's size, weight, and unique spinal
problem. Parents often report that their children
seem healthier than other kids their age. Many
spinal problems seen in adults begin in childhood.
Proper spinal hygiene is an important key to better
health. Do you know a child who could benefit
from chiropractic care.
