If you have never taken your child to a pediatric chiropractor, you might have a lot of questions about the safety and efficacy of chiropractic care. Pediatric chiropractic care is much safer, less invasive, and less risky than most other forms of medical treatment for children. If you’ve been Googling “pediatric chiropractor in Saint Clair” because you’re wondering if your child needs to visit our chiropractor, here are some signs you should make that appointment: 

You’ve Noticed a Change in Posture

You should regularly evaluate your child’s posture for signs of uneven shoulders, hips, knees, and feet as well as a tilted head. You should also check for signs of scoliosis, or a curvature of the spine that can occur during infancy, childhood, or adolescence. If you notice any changes to your child’s posture, bring him to our pediatric chiropractor for an evaluation.

Your Child Plays Sports

If your child plays sports, he is at risk of a childhood sports injury. Our pediatric chiropractor can ensure your child is in the best shape to play sports with proper posture, form, and safety equipment. Our pediatric chiropractor can assist with diet and exercise management, injury prevention, and treating existing injuries without using prescription medication. 

Your Child is Complaining of Aches, Pains, Stress, or Trouble Sleeping

Our pediatric chiropractor can offer overall wellness care, which means that his care goes beyond just treating existing injuries. Chiropractors practice holistic healthcare, which means that they manage their patients’ physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual needs. If your child is complaining of aches and pains, stress or anxiety, depression, appetite issues, or trouble sleeping, our pediatric chiropractor can help. And best of all, our chiropractor will not recommend prescription drugs or invasive procedures to treat your child.
