A High Quality of Life Begins in Youth

From a chiropractic perspective, the first years of life are important ones. As your child learns to sit up and walk, there will be tumbles and falls. Your child's spine will grow almost 50% in length during the first year. That growth and those developmental changes place a lot of stress on your child's body.

At Caldwell Chiropractic Center PC, we recommend that your child have a complete chiropractic examination during the early stages of life. We'll check for spinal trauma that may have occurred during birth, and we'll ensure that your child's body is continuing to grow properly.

Reasons to Bring Your Child to Caldwell Chiropractic

  • Enhanced overall health and well-being
  • Assistance with your child's proper development
  • Strengthen your child's immune system and reduce the frequency and duration of illness
  • Improve your child's posture
  • Help your child cope with stress
  • Help your child heal from childhood conditions, including colic, ear infections, asthma, and bedwetting
  • Provide your child with the opportunity to thrive

Childhood Conditions That Respond Well to Chiropractic

Rather than treating a specific disease or condition, chiropractic helps the entire nervous system function optimally. Many common childhood conditions have been found to respond well to our care.
  • Acid reflux
  • Headache/migraine
  • Neurobehavioral and neurodevelopmental Issues
  • Scoliosis
  • Torticollis
  • ADD/ADHD
  • Colic
  • Constipation
  • Ear infection
  • Asthma
  • Autism spectrum disorders
  • Birth trauma
  • Breastfeeding difficulties: nursing/latching issues
We're also able to provide you and your child with counseling regarding a good diet, proper posture, and the need for exercise. Learning good habits at an early age can be very beneficial to your child as he or she grows into adulthood.

Treating Subluxations in Children

One of the basic functions of chiropractic is to provide treatment for subluxations (misaligned vertebrae). A subluxation occurs when the vertebrae of a child's spine become misaligned. That can happen for several reasons:
  • Natural growth — Sometimes the bones of the spine develop incorrectly and need chiropractic realignment.
  • Falls — As a child runs, plays, or learns to walk or ride a bike, a fall may cause misalignment.
  • Athletic activities — Many sports include impacts, twisting, and other actions that can throw a vertebra out of alignment.
When a subluxation occurs, it irritates the nerves and disrupts the body's ability to send "command center" messages along the spine. Without an effective communication system, the body experiences pain, muscle and organ dysfunction, and other imbalances.

Chiropractic adjustments realign the vertebrae and allow the body to function at its optimum level without stress or drugs.

How Effective Is Childhood Chiropractic Care?

For over 100 years, doctors of chiropractic have provided safe and effective care. Published studies from the US, Germany, Denmark, and Australia have confirmed that chiropractic care is effective in treating a variety of childhood illnesses. Over 30 million Americans use chiropractic care for their children.

Chiropractic is one of the safest types of health care. We use slight pressure to make adjustments, and a baby's spine is very supple during the first few months of life. Our treatments are painless under normal circumstances.

We do not use drugs, so our treatments have no risk of addiction or harmful side effects. We do not use invasive procedures (such as surgery) that may have irreversible side effects. The overall safety of chiropractic care is why our malpractice insurance rates are only a fraction of what physicians pay.

Doctors of chiropractic are highly trained in recognizing complex health problems, and our primary obligation is the welfare of your child. We recognize that not all conditions can be treated with chiropractic care, and when we reach the limits of our skill and authority, we follow the guidance of the International Chiropractors Association: "[D]octors in all fields of practice are ethically and morally bound to make patient referrals to practitioners in other fields of healing when such referrals are necessary to provide the highest quality of patient care."

If your child has a high fever, severe pain, or other serious medical problem, please take your child to the nearest emergency medical facility immediately. As a parent, you must take responsibility for your child's health.

Once your child's condition has stabilized, consult with your child's health care team to plan the next steps. Along with your pediatrician, dentist, and other health care professionals, a doctor of chiropractic is one of several experts on your child's personal health care team. If chiropractic care can help, please call us for an appointment. 

Choosing a Chiropractor for Your Child

Chiropractors who are licensed to provide care for children can be found in all 50 states. The best doctors meet some or all of the following criteria:
  • Belong to a pediatric council
  • Belong to the Pediatric Council of the International Chiropractors Association — membership can be verified by calling (703) 528-5000
  • Take regular continuing post-graduate courses in pediatrics
  • Have earned a post-graduate degree in pediatrics
  • Operate a family practice
  • Are referred to you by another parent

What Is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is an American science that is over 100 years old, but it draws on practices that go back as far as Hippocrates, the Father of Healing, in the 4th century BC. 

As a conservative healing art, chiropractic addresses the root cause of health problems instead of treating the symptoms. At Caldwell Chiropractic, we seek to maximize your body's natural strengths and capacity to heal itself without using surgery or drugs. Our focus is on the detection, reduction, and correction of spinal misalignments and nervous system dysfunction.

As doctors of chiropractic, we've undergone a rigorous and demanding professional education equivalent to any other primary care provider.
  • Several years of prerequisite undergraduate education
  • Nearly the same number of classroom hours at a fully-accredited chiropractic college as physicians take in medical schools
  • Thorough training in the appropriate use of sophisticated diagnostic equipment, including X-rays, laboratory procedures, and state of the art investigative technology
  • Passed the National Boards, similar to the board exam of medical doctors
  • Passed the licensing exam for the state in which we've chosen to practice
  • Attend clinical continuing education programs for annual relicensure

I love that I can be seen at my convenience! I’ve never had to wait any longer than 25 minutes when I walk in. They have a massage therapist and an acupuncturist on-site and available to all patients as desired.
