WHAT ABOUT THE LITTLE ONES?

Parents who love care often wish they started earlier, as in when they were kids.
Looking back, they wanted a jump start on chiropractic benefits, plus confidence for help with flare-ups or times of life's extra stresses (auto accidents, athletic injuries, falls, etc.).

And so these parents ask me, "What about my little ones?"

The great news I can share is that more and more research is being done on the benefits of chiropractic for children. In my office the care is gentle, no-force, and many people think of that approach as an extra benefit.

Following are links to some of my favorite sites for information on children's chiropractic care, with articles on topics from A to V: ADD/ADHD, asthma, backpack stress, bedwetting, colic, ear infections, scoliosis, sports and more.

1) International Chiropractic Pediatric Association - Research Foundation

2) same site, different section
http://www.icpa4kids.org/research/articles/childhood/articlelist.htm

3) http://www.chiropediatrics.com

Yes, even the little ones can be spine tingling (in addition to being cute, and loveable, and fun).

I will be sure to post about children's specific topics, in more detail, in upcoming posts.
I wanted first to make these links available, many parents have found them very handy.

Be Spine Tingling,
