Adults aren’t the only ones who benefit from chiropractic care. Children who receive chiropractic services have a foundation of wellness on which to grow. Consult Dr. J. Zimmerman of Dr. J. Zimmerman, Health First Chiropractic Clinic in Galloway, Northfield, and Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, to see why more and more parents are seeking chiropractic care for their kids.
While a chiropractor cannot cure a disease or illness, he can contribute to an optimally functioning nervous system so the body can better cure itself. Dr. Zimmerman may see kids for reasons that don’t seem related to spinal misalignments, but actually are. These include ear infections, fevers, colic, asthma, allergies, bedwetting, and colds.
In addition to improving posture and general range of motion, chiropractic care may also improve a child’s sleep, behavior, and immune system function.
A newborn should be checked shortly after being born because birth is a traumatic experience that can lead to spinal misalignments. Infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens can all benefit from visiting Dr. Zimmerman.
