This sums up Chiropractic in such a simple way. As well as why every child should be checked by a pediatric trained chiropractor.
This is pediatric chiropractic…not what you think or have been shown by others. It’s becoming popular for social media influencers to try and score likes, comments, or shares by rage-baiting about chiropractic. They’ll find a random chiropractor with no pediatric training posting inflammatory videos to incite the same type of engagement for their own wannabe social media presence, and use it to denounce all of chiropractic. We’re tired of the bad faith discussions around this profession. Chiropractic is not about cracking a spine, and it’s not about pain relief, either. Chiropractic is about the relationship between the spine and nervous system. If the trauma we experience from the pushing/pulling on our neck during birth, to the accumulation of physical/chemical/emotional stress throughout life causes misalignment/restrictions in the spine it will create adverse tension within the nervous system and interfere with how our body can regulate and coordinate function, making our body less capable of adapting to the changes we experience every day. Does this contribute to pain? Sure. Does it contribute to the most common issues we see in children like breastfeeding, colic, torticollis, reflux, etc? Absolutely. But it also make it harder for us to go about life expressing health at our fullest potential. This week a mom shared with us that since starting care for her 4 year old she noticed she’s sleeping better, less emotionally volatile, and overall happier. Of course she is! Our bodies work better well-adjusted…and it’s gentle, safe, and effective for all ages!
