PEDIATRIC CARE
Just like adults, infants and children can benefit from chiropractic, naturopathic medicine, physiotherapy and massage therapy treatments.
Pediatric Chiropractic – Infants & Children:
Our Chiropractors can offer a wellness neurological and musculoskeletal assessment of babies. This can help ensure that the infant is meeting neurological/developmental milestones.
Chiropractic care for infants is gentle and effective at helping to manage infantile Torticollis and other musculoskeletal issues following a strenuous or traumatic birth. It is also effective for concerns about meeting milestones, gas, constipation, breastfeeding challenges, bed wetting, and ear infections. There is also evidence to support the use of chiropractic care for children with colic and sleep challenges.
Chiropractic care for children supports healthy growth, improves posture, alleviates discomfort from spinal misalignments.
Chiropractic care for children is also very beneficial for children engaging in competitive sports. Although children heal very well, there is still a stress on the developing muscles and bones when a child is putting in several training and sport hours/week. Regular treatments may help prevent common conditions, such as shin splints, osgoode schlatters, ankle sprains, and back pain related to high levels of physical activity in kids.
Pediatric Naturopathy:
Our Naturopathic Doctor, Dr. Carly King helps parents navigate their children’s growth and development by providing care for skin, digestion, sleep, behavioural concerns and overall health in a safe and gentle way.
