Chiropractic is Different for Children: Less is More
Whether caring for the nervous system of a little one injured in birth, or routine care for older children, chiropractic is an excellent, safe, and gentle approach for full body wellness in children and removing nervous system dysfunction.
Approximately 65% of neurological development occurs in the first year of life. By the age of 2 the brain reaches 80-90% of adult volume.
In a study of over 1,000 infants, German physician, Dr. Godfrey Gutmann discovered that over 80% of the infants had suffered trauma to their cervical spine.
Studies show that a normal routine delivery places a tremendous amount of pressure and stress on a newborn’s neck and neuro-spinal system.

“My entire family absolutely loves seeing Dr. Allana and her chiropractic care has made a world of difference in our overall health. This has been most evident in our 2-year old who had started getting chronic ear infections. After rounds and rounds of antibiotics, we wanted to try something different and started seeing Allana. He hasn’t had an ear infection since starting care with Allana and we are so, so thankful! We look forward to our visits and adjustments with her every time! She is so good with our boys!”
