Pediatric Chiropractor

Studies have shown that chiropractic is successful in achieving symptomatic relief of various medical conditions in infants and children. Also, regular chiropractic for infants and children promotes a healthy spine and central nervous system which leads to optimum health.  As a result, more and more parents are seeking the holistic and natural alternative of chiropractic for treatment of illness and overall health and well-being for their children.

Benefits of chiropractic for children include:

• Good brain and nerve development
• Healthy spinal posture
• Strengthen immunity
• Alleviate colic symptoms, including irritability
• Help with asthma, breathing difficulties and allergies
• Alleviate digestive problems
• Improve focus/ability to concentrate
• Assist with behavioral disorders
• Good brain and nerve development
• Assist with bed-wetting and sleep issues
• Improve overall health and well-being

When should your child visit a pediatric chiropractor?

A: Shortly after birth.  Most subluxations or problems with the spine begin in utero and may be the result of the stress of the birth process or the position of the baby.  It is good practice to be proactive and have a chiropractic assessment of your child to learn of any spinal problems so that they can be addressed immediately.  The earlier an issue is found, the sooner it can be corrected—if not treated, spine issues can lead to a lifetime of unnecessary health concerns for your child.

Is pediatric chiropractic safe?

A: Yes.  Chiropractic is a natural form of health practice.  Just as you teach young children to brush and floss their teeth to prevent cavity and tooth decay, Dr. Levitz will educate you and your child on proper techniques for daily living activity such as sitting, standing, lifting, etc. to promote good habits for a healthy spine to last a lifetime.
