Children
Chiropractic care for the whole family.
Children and Chiropractic Care
It’s no secret that regular visits to the chiropractor can vastly improve your health and overall wellness. But chiropractic care is not just a service for adults – children also receive excellent benefits from chiropractic care on a regular basis.
As adults, we can feel when our bodies aren’t functioning as they should or normally do. Perhaps we suffer from neck pain, shoulder pain, dizziness or poor posture. Did you know that children and infants may also experience dysfunction within the body that can affect their ability to learn and grow?
In a perfect world, children are always playing and discovering new things, however, this too can mean that they may be more susceptive to trauma (from a minor fall here and bump there) – but what we don’t realise is that this can throw the spine’s alignment out of whack. Even the slightest misalignment can affect children, which can have a knock-on effect in the form of interrupted sleep, earaches, or asthma.
Thankfully, our amazing team at Freo Chiro can help. Here are five incredible benefits of peadiatric chiropractic care for your children:
1. Supports the Immune System
2. Improves Sleep
3. Improved Behaviour
4. Improved Brain Development
5. Benefits Infants During the Early Stages of Development
Our chiros are passionate about supporting optimal spine health for the whole family. We are here to support your family’s wellness journey and we aim to make a trip to the chiro a fun experience! Not only do we make our sessions fun, but our reception is fully equipped with a colouring station, play kitchen and toys to keep the kiddies entertained!
