Childrens Chiropractic in Preston
Many people don’t realise that chiropractic care is appropriate for kiddos—but children have spines and nervous systems, which means that they may benefit from chiropractic in the same way that adults do! At Northside Chiropractic, we focus on care for kids aged 12 and up.
How Chiropractic Benefits Kids
Children are naturally active, whether that means playing with friends or siblings, pursuing their interests or playing organised sport. All of these activities can cause bumps, falls, traumatic or overuse injuries or other stresses to their body.
When we address these issues early on, they are generally easier and quicker to correct than similar issues in adults. Not only that, but if we don’t address these issues, the body will find ways to shift and adapt to avoid pain—and these compensation patterns can affect the spine and nervous system, creating bigger issues years down the road. That’s why we recommend that all kids get checked periodically.
