Our office welcomes children of all ages. How often chiropractors have encountered parents who appreciate the importance of regular checkups for their child's teeth, hearing, eyes, and ears, but draw a blank when it comes to spinal checkup. In fact, spinal checkup could be one of the most important checkups your child will ever have.

Your child's spine is his/her lifeline because running through it is the spinal cord, containing billions of nerve fibers that send messages and energy from the brain to every part of their body.

Childhood is a very "physical" time. Jumping and running, falls and accidents are all part of a normal childhood and yet they can cause spinal misalignments and nerve damage - with serious consequences. It would be wise for all parents to have their children's spines checked periodically.

The most gratifying thing that a doctor of chiropractic sees is the whole family coming in for spinal checkups. It's not unusual for chiropractors to hear stories from parents who say that father has newfound energy; mother's headaches are a thing of the past; the children get sick less frequently and severely, and rarely miss days from school.

More and more families are finding that periodic chiropractic spinal checkups for their children makes a big difference in their health. Why not include periodic chiropractic checkups for you and your family? If your child is suffering from any of these common conditions, it is essential to get his/her spine checked for vertebral subluxations because children, especially if they are ill, need healthy spines.
