Pediatric Chiropractic in Annandale
Children grow so quickly that it’s easy for misalignments to occur and affect their health. Keeping the nervous system functioning optimally through chiropractic adjustments can help them experience fewer childhood issues and function more easily in life. At Nova Spine & Knee Center, we care for kids aged three years and up.
How We Help Kids
While the basic mechanics are the same, the adjustments are not the same as what we do for adults. Kids often don’t have lower back pain, neck pain or headaches. What we typically see in kids is issues with allergies, attention, digestive or immune conditions. We think of treating children as helping a sapling grow and thrive to become a healthy tree. By keeping the spine aligned so that the nervous system can function correctly, other systems of the body will follow suit. The result is a healthier child, who grows up to be a healthier adult.
Addressing Scoliosis
Scoliosis can affect children and adults. If your child has scoliosis, Dr. Reza will design a care plan specifically for their individual situation. And if your pediatrician has suggested surgery, please come see us first! Surgery should always be the last resort, because it can never be undone, and often leads to other problems in the future. We have excellent success treating scoliosis and helping patients of all ages reduce their spinal curvature.
Help Your Child Get Healthy and Stay Healthy
Keeping kids healthy helps them do better in school, have more fun and enjoy life more fully. Chiropractic adjustments can help keep their immune system functioning as it should, so they can get the most out of life and grow into the healthiest “tree” possible. Contact us today to schedule.
