Chiropractic for Kids in Colorado Springs

The benefits that can be provided by a pediatric chiropractor in Colorado Springs are immense. At Etio Chiropractic know that the best way to ensure your child develops their full potential is to ensure the proper function of their nervous system. It's common knowledge that kids are generally durable, but a lot of parents do not know about the long-term ramifications that misalignments in the spine can have on their children. Regrettably, kids have trouble expressing the type of pain they feel or simply ignore when their body is experiencing significant discomfort. Children are not invincible, even the smallest misalignment can eventually develop into a more severe condition.

Children’s bodies are perpetually growing and as such deal with significant stress. A misalignment can start as early as in the womb. When a child is being born, they have likely already been curled up and then pushed or pulled out of the womb with significant force. It is easy to imagine how this much force on such a tiny frame can lead to structural imbalances. Any type of interference in the spine result in babies having difficulties with the nervous system. The nervous system is essential to maintaining proper health.

Chiropractic Care for Kids in Colorado Springs

Chiropractic care can be incredibly beneficial for your child’s health. After birth, the physiological stress progresses as babies develop into toddlers. They're confronted with the hurdle of walking and running. While kids are learning how to conquer these hurdles, they involve a fair share of trial and error that can leave them exhausted physically.
As toddlers develop into children, they frequently start to exhibit poor posture, playing physically rigorous games, carrying heavier books, and also deal with more responsibilities. In the blink of an eye, children become adolescents and graduate secondary school, not long after they usually get part-time jobs that require heavy labor as they transition into college.

Webster's Technique

All of our doctors are certified in Webster's technique which is a method of analysis for the position of the sacrum. Malposition of the sacrum causes torsion of the pelvis, which can restrict the space the baby has to get into proper position. Webster's checks include analyzing and adjusting the sacrum if necessary, checking and releasing any compensatory muscle spasms including the piriformis and psoas, and round ligament release. This restores proper pelvic position, not only making mom more comfortable but baby as well! If you are pregnant, make sure to get evaluated by a Colorado Springs chiropractor certified in Webster's technique today!
