CHIROPRACTIC SCREENING IN CHILDREN
The Importance of Early Chiropractic Examination in Children
Spinal development in children is a delicate and crucial process. Postural imbalances or vertebral subluxations can appear in the first few years of life, often without any visible symptoms. Therefore, a chiropractic screening exam is essential to detect and correct these abnormalities before they affect the child's growth, mobility, or even the nervous system.
Why detect early?
Prevention of musculoskeletal disorders
-
Prevention of musculoskeletal disorders : Poor posture or spinal misalignment can lead to pain, balance problems or difficulty concentrating.
-
Optimizing neurological development : The spine protects the spinal cord. Proper alignment promotes optimal nerve communication.
-
Improved sleep, digestion and behavior: Many parents report significant improvements after appropriate chiropractic care.
