Even if you had your child naturally, they still might have experienced trauma as a result of the birth process. That’s why at the practice we recommend that parents bring their children in as soon after birth as possible. We understand that some parents may be unsure of taking their child to see a chiropractor. They may wonder if children will be adjusted as adults are.
Rest assured that Dr. Sacco uses only gentle adjusting techniques on children. With infants, for example, we use only the same amount of pressure that would be applied to check a tomato for ripeness. It takes minimal pressure to get the maximum benefit.
As kids get older, they experience many falls that can cause misalignment in their spine. Safe and gentle adjustments can keep their spines healthy. Additionally, chiropractic care can boost the immune system. You may find that, if your children get adjusted on a regular basis, they have fewer colds.
