Kids, summer, and chiropractic
Summertime means kids are out of school, and NOW is the perfect time to get their spines checked! Sometimes visiting the chiropractor is hard to fit into a school-year schedule, but summer is a great time to come to Precision Chiropractic!
You may or may not know, but chiropractic adjustments are beneficial for ALL children (including babies – read more here)! Here are just a few reasons why spinal health is important for growing kids:
- Enhances the immune system and nervous system
- Helps with recurrent ear infections and swimmer’s ear
- Reduces physical stress, which aids better concentration, mood, and focus
- Improves issues with sleep and bed-wetting
- Provides drug-free relief from growing pains, falls, and sports injuries
- And much more!
In this blog post, we’ll highlight 3 particular issues. We have recently seen chiropractic adjustments improve kids’ growing pains, bed-wetting, and swimmer’s ear for patients in our office. These issues can affect kids of many ages. Summer, with all the swimming that your kids are hopefully enjoying, can also especially increase swimmer’s ear.
These 3 issues can have different causes (which means they have different solutions!).
- Neurological. Your child’s neurological receptors may not be communicating correctly due to a pinched nerve, so chiropractic adjustments can help relieve the stress and clear the misfiring!
- Mechanical. A misalignment in the spine locks up the joints, so precise adjustments can realign the vertebrae.
- Supplemental. Your child’s blook may be deficient in some mineral that it needs, so adding supplements can help lessen the gap!
Catalyn is a complex, whole-food multivitamin that Dr. Martin recommends for kids. This supplement is good for overall well-being, bridging nutritional gaps in their diet.
A lot of families may be hesitant for their kids to try chiropractic, but schedule now for a free consult to talk more about your specific concerns!
