Can chiropractic care help my child?

I wonder if chiropractic care would help my child? Many parents are afraid or not aware of that many chiropractors treat children and even infants. Children have a nervous system that controls all of the other systems in the body just like adults. In fact, it makes sense to me that you want a sapling to grow into a huge tree from the start. However, many parents think that we would adjust a child the same way as we would adjust an adult and cannot get their heads wrapped around that chiropractic works wonders for children because they have a greater healing ability than adults. Some of the conditions that I have seen range from asthma to cross-eyed. I have seen things that some parents have called a miracle but in reality it was just the chiropractor unleashing the children's own healing power by removing the nerve interference out to that part of the body that manifest itself into a symptom. The youngest patient that I have seen personally was two days old that had torticollis from the obstetrician using forceps to roughly. The MDs wanted to do surgery, however the grandmother was a patient and brought the child to me and the next day the neck was fine with the head becoming straight. Many Pediatricians don't recommend Chiropractic but in reality they have no idea what we do just like the parents. I personally think it's a shame to see so many children on medication these days from ADD to diabetes. Chiropractors do not claim to cure anyone but they correct subluxations (vertebrae misalignments) that prohibit the body from acting normal. Two different patients can have the same subluxations but show a completely different symtomotolgy. I would say that we do not use manual adjustments until the child is in first grade but we use a adjustment instrument that can nudge the vertebrae back to it's normal position very gently.Here at the Biss Clinic of Chiropractic have been adjusting children for over 35 years with great results. I just wish that I could have adjusted more because I know that I could have helped a lot of children have a healthier and happier life and allow them to reach their full potential. Someday attitudes will change but it was not a good feeling knowing this. I use to give new parents a book by a pediatric doctor called "how to raise your child..." by Mendolsohn. Remember, chiropractic first,drugs second and surgery last and you'll put the odds in your favor for a more healthier life.
