Children should see the chiropractor too. Over time all the physical, chemical and emotional stressors add up. Here are 5 reasons why your child should be seeing a chiropractor.
- Sports Participation- children jump, fall and play hard. Small imbalances over time can lead to more severe symptoms later in life.
- Better Sleep- during an adjustment our nervous system switches from sympathetic (fight & flight) to parasympathetic (rest & digest) allowing children to be more relaxed and sleep soundly.
- Immune Support- the immune system is controlled by the nervous system and chiropractic focuses on aligning the spine which allows for optimal function of the nervous system.
- Digestive Issues- (colic, constipation, etc) again the nervous system controls the digestive system.
- Poor Posture- looking down at a tablet for extended period of time can put pressure on the nerves and the neck and upper back.
Healthy kids = healthy future. We have to keep our kids healthy and keep their immune systems functioning 100%.
