Signs Your Child Can Benefit from Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Most people don’t think about taking their child to a chiropractor. In fact, many wonder why they would need to go. Children are resilient, and nothing seems to stop them. Wouldn’t an injury be apparent?
The truth is that children go through many bumps and challenges in life, starting from their delivery. And each of these seemingly minor issues can create a misalignment in the spinal column.
The problem is that they can’t always tell us what’s going on. Often, they don’t even realize something is wrong because they have nothing to compare it to. Adults who get injured often notice sudden pain or symptoms. However, young children might have lived with it long enough to think it’s normal fatigue.
As it can be so difficult for both parents and children to know when something in the spinal column isn’t quite right, it’s important that you know how a misalignment can impact your child. Dr. Andrea, Dr. Mike, and the team at Hogan Family Chiropractic in Frisco, TX, share some signs that indicate pediatric chiropractic care should be made a priority.
How Do I Know Something Is Wrong?
A misalignment can impact children in many ways, including by affecting the nervous system and soft tissue surrounding the spinal column. The symptoms are often confused with other issues, which can lead to a misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment measures. If you notice any of the following, a pediatric chiropractor may be able to help.
- Chronic ear infections
- Lack of energy
- TMJ
- Lower back pain
- Headaches
- Irritability
- Trouble concentrating in school
- Digestive problems
- Balance or coordination problems
- Sleep difficulties
- Dizziness
- Neck pain
- Colic
If your child shows any of these symptoms or anything else that seems abnormal to you, our team can help determine if it is due to a misalignment. If so, we can provide gentle adjustments to restore alignment, which can improve nerve function, organ function, and muscle balance.
