Pediatric Chiropractor Care

Pediatric Care

Think about everything that a baby’s body goes through when it is born. Whether a natural or c-section birth, their tiny, fragile bodies are squished around in many positions. The result is that they can easily become misaligned, if ever so slightly.

Not only can this cause some irritation to their delicate nervous systems, but it can also hinder their development. For some parents, these problems might not be noticeable, and many others assume their baby’s body will naturally work itself out.

This isn’t always the case, however.

There are many instances where your child might require an adjustment from a professional chiropractor. Luckily, you don’t have to stress over finding a safe and trusted pediatric chiropractor in Edwardsville & Glen Carbon. Infinite Wellness Integrative Medical Center is here to provide your little one with the careful treatment they need to start feeling better!

Are Adjustments Safe for Kids?

Many parents are terrified of letting their child get an adjustment because of the experience they have had with chiropractors as an adult. It’s important to note, however, that the process is not the same for children!

The International Chiropractic Pediatrics Association (ICPA) has developed special techniques that are extremely safe for children of all ages. Our team of chiropractors, specifically, adjust their methods and pressure to protect your child’s delicate body. These treatment programs are not just safe but essential in providing your child with the best chance of developing properly.

How Pediatric Chiropractors Work with Pediatricians

We often hear parents say that their child doesn’t need a chiropractor because they already have a pediatrician. However, we think it’s worth pointing out that your child can have two doctors.

While pediatricians are critical for treating illnesses with medication when necessary, chiropractors can provide more preventative treatment. The two don’t have to be used separately. Instead, you can provide your child with optimal health and wellness by combining both natural and traditional medicine practices.

Benefits of Pediatric Chiropractic Treatment

A pediatric chiropractor can help your child’s natural ability to heal their own body by correcting areas that may have become imbalanced in their spine and nervous systems. In fact, the following are just a few of the areas in which you can expect improvements in your child’s life.

Improve Breastfeeding

A chiropractic exam can reveal if your child’s breastfeeding difficulties are the result of an imbalance in their spine or cranium. Depending on what we find, our chiropractors can create a custom treatment plan to correct any misalignments that would irritate their nervous system or cause difficulties with suction, latching, or fatigue.

Correct Misalignments

If your child’s birth caused a misaligned spine, it could cause more than just nervous system irritation. It can also inhibit their growth and development and lead to long-term issues. A misaligned skull can also occur with birth, and this can lead to overlapping or separation of sutures. A chiropractic exam is critical for correcting these problems before they become something bigger.

Help with Other Common Conditions

Lastly, pediatric chiropractic care can also help children with many other common conditions that seem to occur without cause. The following are just a few examples of what conditions our treatments can help improve:

  • Ear Problems
  • Acid Reflux
  • Asthma
  • Sleep Problems
  • Allergies
  • Colic
  • And So Much More!
