The birth process may be one of the most
traumatic events of our lives. Even so-called "natural" birthing methods
can stress a still-developing spine. The resulting irritation to the
nervous system can be the cause of many newborn health complaints. Colic,
unexplained crying, poor appetite, breathing problems, ear infections and
allergic reactions can often be traced to nervous system dysfunction caused by a
malfunctioning spine.
Head support, followed by crawling, and a baby's first few steps should be followed by chiropractic checkups. If neglected, the bumps and falls during this period of rapid growth may lead to serious spinal deformities later in life. This can set the stage for scoliosis, "growing pains," and a weakened immune system response.
Chiropractic adjusting techniques are modified to fit a child's size, weight, and unique spinal problem. Parents of children who are regularly adjusted, often report that their children seem healthier than other kids their age. Dr. Tardi's youngest patient, so far, is 7 hours old.
Many spinal problems seen in adults begin in childhood. Proper spinal hygiene is an important key to better health. Do you know a child who can benefit from chiropractic care?
