Dr. Jodi specializes as a pediatric chiropractor. It is so important that children get adjusted. Walk with me for a moment through a typical day of a 7-year-old child. Let's first assume that this child was born in a hospital and had up to 90lbs of pressure applied to his neck at birth (that is considered normal). According to OSHA, the average child falls over 2500 times during his first 5 years of life.
Because the body is so brilliant, most of the stress will move through on its own, with laughter, crying, movement, yelling, etc. However, chiropractic addresses the stress that the body can't quite reach on its own. Your child's body stores this stress in the form of potential energy. Once released, the new kinetic energy is free to help the body heal and grow.
If it stays stuck, it forms disease. In kids, this disease looks like headaches, ear infections, allergies, asthma, ADD, and more. In adults it is more chronic, showing up as migraines, back pain, tightness, irritability and more.
As you can imagine, this child has some stress stored in her body. The purpose of regular chiropractic care is to keep this stress moving through the body. With treatment, overall physical, mental, and emotional health make observable improvements. |
