Chiropractic Care for Everyone in the Family

By Donna Stark

I grew up in a family of 10 and if there was one thing you could safely bet on, it was that we all ate whatever dinner my mother put on the table. You see, she never granted any special requests for the few who didn't like what she made, nor did she spend extra hours in the kitchen creating alternate options. We either ate what she prepared or we didn't eat at all. And although I completely understand the "one size fits all" approach to feeding a family of that size, it's good to know that not everybody follows that line of thought. Take, for example, your local chiropractors at The Joint Chiropractic. Aren't you glad that they don't "serve" every patient the same type of treatment?

Chiropractic Care for Everyone

Even though we ate the same meals, my family members and I certainly didn't have the same needs, and when it comes to caring for your family, your local chiropractor understands that more than anyone. Whether it's the newborn, the young child, the teen, or the adults, chiropractic adjustments can keep everyone healthy and happy. Take a look.

• Infants and toddlers - The slightest tumble while learning how to walk is all that is needed to shift the delicate spine out of alignment and we all know that toddlers fall a lot! We also know that this is the prime age for recurrent ear infections, so do your child a favor and bring them in for an adjustment. Chiropractic care can help with both!
• Young children - Sports, school, and playtime. Those three words can sum up the daily life of most children and chiropractic care can enhance all of them. Chiropractic adjustments help improve athletic performance, sleep, concentration, and memory. They also help to boost the immune system, encourage correct posture, and relieve many allergy symptoms.
• Teens and young adults - Poor posture at school, physically-demanding sports, new jobs ... this is the age when bodies start to hurt, but don't panic yet! Your local chiropractor can help get the body back in alignment and can reduce pain and the risk of future damage in the process.  
• Adults and seniors - Aging doesn't need to be painful, especially if you choose chiropractic care as part of your healthy lifestyle. It can reduce the risk of serious medical conditions, alleviate pain and discomfort, improve cognitive function, and restore the body's nervous, immune, respiratory, and circulatory systems.
