Chiropractic care is best known for helping adults and the elderly treat the symptoms of health problems like back and neck pain. However, children, especially kids in sports, can also greatly benefit from the positive results of regular chiropractic care. Our professional chiropractic treatments at Summerside Chiropractic can help your child recover from injuries and elevate their overall well-being.

Is chiropractic care safe for my child?

Chiropractic care is completely safe for children. Treatments are adjusted to the needs of each patient, so your child will never receive the same adjustment as an adult. Chiropractic has been proven to carry no risk for children, and procedures are painless.

When should I bring my child in for chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care is suitable for children of all ages, including infants. If you believe your child may be too young for chiropractic care, don’t hesitate to reach out to our office. Our team can listen to your concerns and walk you through the options.

Why should my child see a chiropractor?

While children tend to be more agile and recover more quickly from injury than adults, they can still experience symptoms like limited head or neck mobility, irregular sleep patterns or insomnia, neck or back pain, and uneven shoulders.

Chiropractic care can correct spinal misalignments in your child’s spinal cord that could be causing them to experience pain or discomfort. Our treatments can also relieve the symptoms of conditions like scoliosis, asthma, headaches, and growing pains. If your child is an athlete that plays a sport like soccer or participates in a physical activity like gymnastics, chiropractic care can help them enhance their performance and prevent or treat sports injuries.

A chiropractor can also ensure that your child is on the right track for optimal growth and identify any potential spinal curvatures that may negatively impact your child’s health.
