Some people would probably be surprised to learn how many people bring their children in with them to get adjusted. Chiropractic is a very family friendly field. There are many children across the United States that recieve chiropractic care. Dr. Combs sees many children, and is very good at putting kids at ease since he has two young children of his own (which, of course, also recieve regular chiropractic adjustments.)
Why on Earth would a kid need adjusted? PLENTY of reasons....
There are obvious cases, when children are brought in by their parents for neck or back pain, even headaches. Kids quite commonly have 'subluxations' which is a word that chiropractors use for the spine being misaligned. Children are constantly partaking in vigorous play time and activity, so its common that they have subluxations. Chiropractic adjustments help return their spine into proper alignment.
There are also some less obvious reasons parents seek out Chiropractic to help their children. There are many studies done that have shown the Chiropractic may effectively help reduce colic, asthma, bed-wetting, scoliosis, sports injuries, ear infections and more. (associatedcontent.com) Lots of parents recognize Chiropractic as an important weekly or monthly routine that helps their child maintain better overall health.
As always, chiropractic is very safe. There is little to no discomfort for children. Our young patients receive excellent, gentle care. Next time you come in for an adjustment, dont forget to bring your child and let them benefit from Chiropractic care, as well.
