Lately in our Calgary AB chiropractic clinic I’ve had a lot of patients ask me if kids can get chiropractic treatment and if it’s something I do. The answer to both questions is yes of course! We love having your young ones in our offices. The next question I get is what age can they start care?

Chiropractic Care Is For Every Body In Calgary AB

Chiropractic care is safe and beneficial for children of all ages—even from birth! A baby’s spine can experience stress during delivery, which may impact their nervous system. Gentle chiropractic adjustments can help improve sleep, reduce colic and reflux, and support overall development.

As children grow, they encounter frequent falls, poor posture, and the strain of carrying heavy backpacks. Chiropractic care can:

• Support proper posture
• Help with musculoskeletal discomfort from daily activities

Studies suggest that chiropractic adjustments positively influence the nervous system, which plays a crucial role in a child’s growth and development.

Teenagers can also benefit from chiropractic care. Whether they’re involved in sports, spending hours at a desk, or dealing with stress, chiropractic adjustments can:

• Improve athletic performance and recovery
• Reduce headaches and neck pain from prolonged screen use
• Support focus and concentration

Chiropractic care is a natural, gentle, and drug-free approach to keeping kids healthy. Every adjustment is tailored to the child’s size, age, and needs.

At our clinics, we are dedicated to providing compassionate care for patients of all ages, and we offer free initial assessments for children under 12 of existing patients to ensure their optimal spinal health and well-being.
