Is It Safe To Adjust Children? FAQ#7

Today’s parents are more disturbed than ever about the adverse effects drugs have on their children. Moms and dads are more often asking, when handed a prescription for a child’s periodic problem, “Is this really all I can do for my child? Isn’t there a safer alternative?”

Many children’s prescription and non-prescription drugs often not only mask a child’s symptoms, but can produce unhealthy side effects. Their intent to maintain a healthier state for their children has encouraged moms and dads to look for health care alternatives that support their child’s own innate ability to be healthy.

Chiropractic care is that option. All children are healthier with 100% nerve function. When the nervous system is optimally functioning, the immune system, which is directed by the nervous system, is able to do what it’s supposed to do, which is keep your child healthy.  As the adage goes, “the best offense is a good defense.” Children are exposed to an extraordinary number of health-endangering illnesses every day that it would be inconceivable to immunize them against them all, even if there were such immunization available. Your Camarillo Chiropractor has both knowledge and experience with colds, sore throats, ear infections, fevers, colic, asthma, tonsillitis, allergies, bed-wetting, infections, pains, falls, stomach-aches, and the hundred and one little (and big) things children go through as they are growing up.

The goal of a chiropractor is to help keep your child healthy and strong so that the ailments that appear to be an inescapable part of childhood, either won’t affect your child as fiercely or will not affect them at all. The purpose of chiropractic care is to eliminate interferences to the inherent healing power running through the body. When that power is unleashed, the changes that take place quite frequently are profound.

Furthermore, when a child’s spine is in alignment, he or she is far less vulnerable to sports and play injuries. In addition, children who receive regular chiropactic care don’t appear to experience as many “growing pains” as other children.
