Pediatric chiropractic care focuses on supporting the nervous system, which plays a role in how children sleep, move, digest, regulate emotions, and adapt to stress. Care is gentle, age-appropriate, and tailored to each child’s stage of development.

Pediatric chiropractic uses very gentle techniques designed specifically for infants, children, and teens. Adjustments involve light pressure and are focused on nervous system regulation.

Families often seek care for concerns such as:

• Sleep challenges

• Feeding difficulties or reflux

• Torticollis and flat head preference

• Sensory and emotional regulation challenges

• Focus and attention difficulties

• Developmental stress following birth or NICU stays

Our goal is to understand how the nervous system may be contributing to these challenges and support the body’s ability to regulate and adapt.

Yes. Pediatric chiropractic care uses specialized techniques that are gentle and appropriate for small, developing bodies. Care is adapted for each child’s age, size, and comfort level.

No. Most children are very comfortable during visits. Many babies relax or even sleep during care. Adjustments are light and designed to be calm and reassuring.

Your first visit includes:

• A detailed health history

• A discussion of your concerns and goals

• A neurological assessment (INSIGHT Scans)

• A clear explanation of findings and recommendations (on your second visit to our office)

We take time to answer questions and ensure you feel informed and supported.

Initial visits (the first two visits) are typically longer to allow time for assessment and discussion. Follow-up visits are shorter and focused on ongoing support.

This can be a sign that a baby’s nervous system has difficulty shifting fully into a relaxed, restful state. Many sleep challenges are not behavioral, but related to regulation and comfort. Supporting the nervous system can help babies settle and stay asleep more easily.

Many families notice improvements in sleep quality, settling, and night wakings as nervous system regulation improves. Every child is different, and care focuses on supporting the body rather than forcing sleep patterns.

Night waking can be developmentally normal, but frequent waking paired with difficulty settling may indicate nervous system stress. A thorough assessment helps determine whether additional support may be helpful.

Pediatric chiropractic care does not diagnose or treat ADHD. However, many families seek care to support nervous system regulation, which plays a role in focus, emotional control, and stress response.

When the nervous system is overwhelmed, children may remain in a heightened stress response. This can impact attention, emotional regulation, and behavior. Supporting regulation can help children respond more calmly and consistently.

Yes. Preemie and NICU babies often experience early nervous system stress. Care is extremely gentle and focused on supporting regulation, comfort, and development following early medical intervention.

Premature babies may have nervous systems that are more reactive to stimuli such as sound, touch, or movement. Gentle support can help improve comfort and adaptability over time.

We do not diagnose or treat seizures, and chiropractic care does not replace medical management. Families sometimes seek care to support overall nervous system regulation alongside their child’s existing medical care.

Yes. Your child’s safety and wellbeing are always the priority. We encourage collaborative care and will refer out or coordinate with pediatric specialists when appropriate.

Pediatric Chiropractic Center primarily focuses on infants, children, and teens, but we also care for parents and adults - especially those experiencing chronic stress, fatigue, overwhelm, or nervous system dysregulation.

Many parents choose care for themselves alongside their children, recognizing that regulation, stress, and nervous system health affect the entire family. Supporting parents can often support children as well.

Our approach is gentle, individualized, and focused on nervous system regulation at every stage of life.

Absolutely. While Pediatric Chiropractic Center primarily focuses on infants, children, and teens, we also care for parents and adults, particularly those experiencing chronic stress, exhaustion, overwhelm, or nervous system dysregulation.

Many adults come to us after long periods of operating in “fight or flight,” often while caring for young children or managing demanding schedules. Our approach focuses on supporting nervous system regulation, helping the body shift into a calmer, more resilient state.

Care for adults is gentle, individualized, and aligned with the same neurological principles we use for children.

Pediatric Chiropractic Center is an out-of-network practice. This allows us to focus on individualized care without restrictions from insurance companies.

Insurance often limits the type, frequency, and focus of care. By remaining out-of-network, we can spend more time with families and tailor care based on your child’s needs rather than insurance guidelines.

If you feel your child may be struggling with regulation, comfort, or adaptation - even if you can’t pinpoint exactly why - a consultation can help determine whether care may be supportive.

We’re happy to help.
