Why should your children be checked by a chiropractor?
A main concern for you as a parent is how to ensure each of your children have the opportunity to become their healthy best. Your should be aware of the following:
Many studies now show that achieving our best as adults, on physical, mental, social, and occupational levels is in large shaped by the windows of opportunity opened to us during childhood.
-What constitutes a healthy response to the challenges that go with a normal childhood, have finally been appropriately redefined. Up until recently a child was seen to be healthy when he or she had no symptoms. However, a number of studies now suggest that is not always the case and that health is better defined as the ability of a child's body to interpret, and then appropriately respond, to environmental and lifestyle stresses.
There is one system in your child's body that is in charge of accurately interpreting the messages coming from the environment, and deciding which messages to send so that the body appropriately adapts. That system is the nervous system. It is the master control system of growth, repair and the function of every tissue and organ in the body. Your chiropractor has undergone extensive training in order to become highly proficient at detecting and correcting one of the most common and often undetected causes of interference to a child's nervous system, the 'spinal subluxation'.
What is a subluxation?
If your child's body is stressed, either by physical, chemical, or emotional stresses, there may occur a loss of normal spinal bone position and movement. This in turn causes a disturbance in nervous system function. This loss of normal spinal function and accompanying neurological disturbance, are together, called spinal subluxation. Often this results in the impairment of your child's nervous system to accurately receive, process, and respond appropriately to changes taking place within the body and in their environment.
When should children have their first chiropractic check up?
One of the most physically, chemically and emotionally stressful events that we all go through in this life is being born. Because the birth process is unavoidably stressful, newborns are particularly susceptible to becoming subluxated during birth. Such an injury may not be immediately obvious and, if left uncorrected, may not become apparent for many years. To ensure your children get the right start in life they should be checked by a chiropractor as a normal part of post-natal care, to facilitate their optimum growth and development. If your older children have not had a chiropractic check-up, the sooner they are examined by a chiropractor the better. It has been shown that negative patterns, if laid down early in life, may persist and limit a child's future growth on a number of levels thoughout their lifetime. The sooner subluxations are detected and corrected the sooner your children can begin taking advantage of their full potential.
If subluxations are detected, how will they be corrected?
Instead of focusing on treating the symptoms of disease, your chiropractor corrects subluxations with the objective of allowing the full expression of your children's inborn wisdom so that they may experience life to its fullest. Your chiropractor will achieve this end by making a series of gentle 'adjustments' carefully restoring normal alignment and function to the spine. By having subluxations corrected throughout childhood, your children will be better prepared to face all the challenges that life has to offer.
