Gentle Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Many parents are increasingly discovering the benefits of chiropractic care for their children, beginning at birth and continuing throughout their lives. At 302 Chiropractic, we specialize in providing gentle, tailored treatments not only to address specific health challenges but also as a preventive measure to maintain overall well-being.
From birth through adulthood, our bodies endure various forms of physical stress. The birthing process alone can exert an estimated 60-90 lbs. of force on an infant’s neck and back. This initial stress, often surprising to many, is just the beginning. As children grow, they face additional challenges: learning to walk, engaging in sports, sitting for long periods at school, carrying heavy backpacks, and occasional accidents. These activities commonly lead to misalignments in the spine and pelvis from an early age.
At 302 Chiropractic, we are committed to supporting your child’s health and development by ensuring their spinal health is optimized. By addressing these issues early, we help pave the way for a healthier, more active life.
Infant Chiropractic Care
Gentle Care for Mother and Baby
At 302 Chiropractic, we understand the challenges and concerns new mothers face, especially when it comes to breastfeeding. Effective latching is crucial for a successful nursing journey, yet it can sometimes be hindered by physical discomforts in both mother and baby. Our chiropractic services are here to support you and your baby in achieving a comfortable and effective nursing experience.
How Chiropractic Helps with Nursing
For the Baby: Newborns often experience stress on their delicate spines and necks during birth, which can lead to discomfort and difficulty in achieving the correct head positioning for effective latching. Our gentle chiropractic adjustments are designed to alleviate these tensions, promoting better alignment and easing the latching process. These adjustments are safe, gentle, and tailored specifically to the needs of infants. Other reasons littles ones are brought to the office include colic, painful gas, torticollis,
For the Mother: Nursing mothers frequently face physical challenges such as back pain, neck stiffness, and other postural issues that arise from carrying and feeding their newborn. Chiropractic care helps alleviate these discomforts through targeted spinal adjustments, improving posture and reducing pain. This not only enhances comfort during nursing but also overall well-being.

the brain and chiropractic care
At 302 Chiropractic, we recognize that neurostructural shifts in the spine can lead to altered neurological input to the brain, impacting a child’s ability to process sensory information, behavior, and overall development. Misalignments may disrupt the nervous system’s function, potentially contributing to conditions such as ADHD, sensory processing disorders, and other developmental challenges. Our chiropractic treatments aim to restore proper alignment and improve neurological function. By doing so, we help optimize brain-body communication, which can enhance focus, behavior, sensory integration, and support developmental progress. Explore how targeted chiropractic care can be a pivotal part of managing and improving neurological health.
