King Street Back and Neck Care treats children
Many spinal problems begin in childhood and develop gradually. Chiropractic approaches spinal and overall health care from a preventative point of view. If a problem can be caught before it develops it can be corrected much more quickly.
Beginning from birth your child's spine is subjected to daily stresses. The birth process is one of the most traumatic experiences many of us will ever go through. An infant's neck must be bent one way and then the other in order to pass through the birth canal. This can leave a baby's neck with subluxations or misalignments which can be corrected with chiropractic treatment. Even a one day old infant can be adjusted! Dr. Trauben's son Noah was lightly adjusted at 4 hours old and so was Dr. Borenstein's son Dean .
As your child grows other problems may arise. Constant jumping, falling, running and bumping of a normal childhood may cause spine and nerve stress, with serious health consequences if uncorrected. Also, scoliosis, an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine, may develop and if not detected early may become a serious disfiguring problem. It is important that, when present, it is caught before a child begins his or her "growth spurt" at approximately 12-16 years of age because this is the time that it progresses most rapidly.
