Here at Clairpointe Family Chiropractic, we encourage the whole family to be under chiropractic care. Below are reasons why we believe lifelong chiropractic care is vital for everyone! 

The Birthing Process

Going through the birthing process is the roughest ride you'll ever take in your whole life. A vaginal delivery and C-section have many different factors that can lead to the baby's neck and spine being twisted or compressed, leading to other health issues down the road. 

Ideally, babies should be checked and adjusted as soon as possible after birth to undue stresses during birth. After that, we advise parents to have their babies and children checked and adjusted once a month, which helps keep their immune system strong and helps fight off colds, flues, and viruses.

Athletics

Kids are playing many sports these days, which can lead to impacts and traumas on their neck and spine. Having a chiropractor check and adjust their spine will help them from developing any problems that will go off into adulthood.

Getting your athlete adjusted can also improve reaction times, shorten healing and recovery time after injuries, faster recovery from concussions, decrease joint stiffness and pain, and can reduce the need for medications.

Phones and Computers

When using phones and computers, kids and adults are looking down frequently, putting a lot of pressure on their necks and upper backs. Adjusting the cervical spine and practicing cervical tractioning will bring back the natural curve in your neck and reduce pain and symptoms.

Genetics

Every time you are in an injury or an accident, that injury or accident is imprinted on your DNA. When you and your spouse have children together, your injuries and accidents are in your DNA, and it's expressed into your children, and your children can be born with a predisposition to certain conditions.
