Chiropractic Care for Kids

Chiropractic Care for Kids

From learning to walk, getting sick, carrying back packs, sports and screen time – little spines face a lot. Keeping your child’s spine and nervous system healthy as they grow is one of your top priorities. Many families choose pediatric chiropractic care as a proactive way to help keep their kids moving, growing and thriving.

At Crest Chiropractic, we recommend regular chiropractic adjustments for kids during childhood and key developmental stages. Gentle adjustments support proper function of the nerve and immune systems, helping children grow, move, and feel their best.

Benefits of Chiropractic for Kids  

Spinal stress can occur early—during pregnancy, birth, and everyday activities like being carried, falling, and spending long periods in car seats. Some common concerns parents notice in newborns and infants include:

Colic

Reflux

Ear infections

Difficulty feeding

Digestion Issues

Excessive crying

Torticollis or posture issues

As children grow, sports, play, and rapid physical development place continual demand on their spine. Keeping the spine aligned helps kids stay active, healthy, and comfortable.

Our Approach is Gentle, Easy and Fun

We love caring for children. Our clinic offers gentle, pediatric chiropractic treatments designed to support your child’s spine and nerve system and overall health. Adjustments are safe, non-invasive, and always tailored to your child’s age and size. We keep it fun for the kids and use silly words like ‘popcorn in your spine’ and ‘pretzel adjustment.’ We explain at their level what we do before we do it by using a ‘show and tell’ approach.

Is Pediatric Chiropractic Safe?

Yes. Chiropractic for kids is safe and widely used by children of all ages - from newborns to teens. Our pediatric chiropractic techniques are soft and specific, focusing on restoring alignment and reducing irritation to the nervous system.

Even when children are not showing pain, misalignments may still be present. Kids don’t always express discomfort clearly, and signs may look like irritability, crying, or behavior changes. Regular checkups can help identify and correct issues early.
