    5 Benefits of Pediatric Chiropractic Care

    Published by The Doctors at Sentinel

    Did you know that chiropractic care isn’t just for adults? It also has many incredible benefits for kids! Numerous studies have shown how regular visits to the chiropractor can have a great effect on both a child’s mental and physical health.

    As a child’s body continues to grow, chiropractic adjustments are incredibly beneficial for not only the back and spine, but also for the brain. The connection between the three is incredibly important  in maintaining the body’s healthy function in both adults and kids.

    One of the main attractions of chiropractic care for kids is there are no medications involved – it’s a natural, gentle, and safe way to treat the nervous system. 

    There are many different conditions that a quick trip to the chiropractor can treat, and even prevent in your child. Let’s take a deeper look at the top five benefits of visiting a professional chiropractor for kids.

    The benefits of chiropractic care for children

    1. Better sleep  

    High quality sleep is important to children; it’s when they recharge from the day and their brains sorts through all the information they have learned during the day. Chiropractors for children understand this. If your child is having trouble getting a full night’s rest, then seeing a chiropractor may be a good solution. Not only does it help relieve tension from the body but the movements involved in the practice can also be an excellent solution for bed wetting.

    1. Improved behavior 

    Research suggests that there may be a role for chiropractic care in the treatment of children with ADHD. A case study carried out on four children with the condition found that consistent chiropractic adjustments over a period of several months saw significant improvements in their symptoms. 

    1. A supported immune system 

    Unfortunately, children are prone to many illnesses from coughs and colds to tummy bugs and ear infections. But did you know a healthy spine can boost your child’s ability to fight these off? As every message from the body to the brain travels via the nervous system, chiropractic care is a great way to strengthen kids’ immune systems naturally.

    1. Enhanced brain development 

    When the nerves in a child’s brain connect with the rest of their body correctly, pressure on the spine is released. This means the nervous system can perform at an ideal level and brain function is increased.

    1. Help with growing pains 

    Two out of five children and teenagers will deal with growing pains. Despite common belief, these pains are not the result of growth spurts and are actually caused by the many activities kids take part in. Often, the large length of time moving about can put pressure on your child’s spine. Visiting a chiropractor is a great way to fight off the pain. 

    So, from helping them stay immune to a seasonal cold, to assisting with learning disabilities, there are many reasons you should consider taking your child to a chiropractor.

    Dr. Philip Crane and Dr. Gillian Crane, along with the rest of the team of professionals here at Sentinel Health and Wellness offer top-of-the-range chiropractic care for kids.
