10 Nov 🥴 Have you been told that your baby needs spinal adjustments to correct their head tilt 😱 Did you know that there have been reported incidents of injury to babies and children resulting from chiropractic spinal adjustments.

🥴Chiropractic spinal adjustments for children is a controversial and often debated topic. Chiropractic care is a form of alternative medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. While some parents and chiropractors believe that children can benefit from chiropractic spinal adjustments, there are important considerations to keep in mind:🤔

👶🏻1. Safety:
Chiropractic adjustments can be safe when performed by a qualified and experienced practitioner. However, children’s spines are still developing, and they may be more delicate than adult spines. Specialized pediatric chiropractors are trained to work with children and use gentler techniques.

🙅‍♀️2. Evidence:
The scientific evidence on the safety and efficacy of chiropractic care for children is limited and often inconclusive. There is a lack of robust research demonstrating the benefits of chiropractic adjustments for common childhood conditions.

😬3. Documented Incidents:
Some medical professionals and organizations express concerns about the potential risks associated with chiropractic care for children, such as injury to the developing spine or nervous system. It’s important to consult with a peadiatrician before seeking chiropractic care for your child.
