Infants, children and Chiropractic

Common complaints among babies and children

Babies and children can benefit from chiropractic care for various complaints, such as:

  • Infantile colic
  • Preferential posture
  • Flattened head (plagiocephaly)
  • Motor developmental delays
  • Feeding problems, such as difficulty in latching or swallowing
  • Intestinal colic
  • Sleep problems
  • Problems due to a difficult or complicated birth

Can chiropractic help?

Chiropractic is aimed at improving the function of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems. For babies and children, this can contribute to alleviation of symptoms and better development. Chiropractic uses gentle and specific techniques, adapted to the fragile bodies of babies and children.

Is chiropractic safe for my baby or child?

Yes, chiropractic is completely safe for babies and children when performed by experienced and trained chiropractors. At Cornerstone Chiropractie, we use extremely gentle techniques that have been specially developed for young bodies. The forces applied in treating babies are gentle, similar to the pressure used to gauge the ripeness of a piece of fruit. Your child will be treated with the utmost care and attention.

How old does a child have to be to consult chiropractic?

Babies can be treated from birth. This can be particularly useful after a difficult birth or for specific complaints such as crying or a preferential position. Older children can also receive chiropractic care at any time to improve their well-being.

What does research say about pediatric chiropractic?

Scientific studies, such as the 2012 Cochrane Review on “Manipulative therapies for infantile colic,” show that manipulative therapy such as chiropractic can have a positive effect on babies with colic (non-consolable crying for multiple hours, mainly at the end of the day). While more research is needed, practice suggests that chiropractic can contribute to better health and comfort for babies and children.
