Pediatric Chiropractic Care – Gentle, Safe Care for Growing Bodies
Gentle & Natural Chiropractic Care for Infants, Children, and Teens
A child’s body is constantly growing and developing, which means their spine, joints, and nervous system need proper alignment to function optimally. From birth trauma to growth spurts, poor posture, and sports injuries, kids experience many physical stresses that can impact their health, movement, and comfort.
At Falcone Chiropractic, we provide gentle, pediatric-specific chiropractic care to support your child’s growth, development, and overall well-being. Whether your child is an infant, toddler, or teenager, chiropractic care can help improve mobility, support immune function, and address common childhood conditions—all in a safe, non-invasive, and drug-free way.
If you’re looking for a natural way to keep your child healthy and thriving, pediatric chiropractic care may be the perfect solution!
Why Chiropractic Care is Important for Kids
Many parents are surprised to learn that spinal misalignments can occur as early as birth due to the pressure and positioning during labor and delivery. As children grow, they experience additional spinal stress from:
✔️ Tumbles and falls while learning to walk
✔️ Poor posture from screen time and carrying heavy backpacks
✔️ Sports injuries and physical activity strains
✔️ Rapid growth spurts that affect spinal alignment
✔️ Stress and nervous system imbalances
Chiropractic adjustments help ensure proper spinal alignment and nervous system function, supporting your child’s overall health and wellness.
Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Infants & Children?
Yes! Pediatric chiropractic care is extremely safe, gentle, and effective when performed by a trained chiropractor.
At Falcone Chiropractic, we use gentle, low-force techniques specifically designed for small, developing bodies. Unlike adult adjustments, pediatric adjustments use light fingertip pressure to correct spinal misalignments—often no more pressure than you’d use to check the ripeness of a tomato!
Most babies and children find chiropractic adjustments relaxing, and many parents report their kids sleep better and feel more relaxed after care.
If you’re unsure whether chiropractic care is right for your child, we’d love to answer your questions and walk you through the process.
