Does My Child Need Chiropractic Care?

Children are prone to spinal injuries starting with the birth process. Falls, sports injuries, excessive use of tech devices, and being sedentary are all factors that might cause a spinal misalignment. Since children don’t usually complain about lingering pain, it can be challenging to detect an underlying issue until it becomes severe.

Offering Benefits to All

Dr. Garda’s children have received chiropractic care since they were a few minutes old. After seeing how much they benefited from this care, he knew he had to share with other children to help improve their quality of life and overall health.

Some of the common conditions he sees children for include

• Lower back pain
• Neck pain
• Headaches
• Posture problems
• Sports injuries and performance
• Ankle, knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, and wrist injuries
• Growing pains
• Other musculoskeletal problems

Expect Quality Care

When a young child comes to the practice, the parent can hold them while they’re checked. They can be sitting or standing, whatever they’re comfortable with.

Depending on the age, Dr. Garda starts with examining a baby “down to their diaper” to ensure proper movement in all their joints and follows a graduated approach for older children.

Since he uses such gentle techniques, most children don’t really feel much while he’s working on them. There’s never any cracking or popping or aggressive techniques; he’s just removing the pressure off the nerve. And if the child is too nervous about being adjusted, Dr. Garda will never force them.
