Pediatric Chiropractic in Cherry Hill
Our Gentle Techniques
Dr. Joe specializes in Torque Release Technique, which is a gentle and specific technique safe for use on kids. For younger babies, he uses a sustained contact technique, which involves applying very light pressure to guide the bones into proper alignment. The pressure used is the same as to check a tomato for ripeness.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care
Since chiropractic care helps optimize nervous system function, the entire body can benefit from care. For babies, some benefits we see regularly include
- Better sleep
- Improved digestion
- Regular bowel movements
- Less colic
- Fewer ear infections
- Less discomfort
When we keep the nervous system functioning as it should, all the systems of your child’s body can work optimally. This allows them to hit developmental milestones appropriately and remain as healthy as possible.
The Process
At Better Health Chiropractic have different new patient paperwork for kids, and we ask that you complete and submit it online before their first appointment.
At the first visit, we will perform an examination to determine the cause of the condition. For kids over 3, we use the same nerve and muscle assessments that we would use on adults. For newborns up through age 3, we do a hands-on evaluation to feel their spine and check their reflexes. This lets us know how their nervous system works. If the child is in discomfort, we’ll do a gentle adjustment to ease their pain.
At the second visit, we’ll go over all our findings with you and explain our game plan to help your child feel better and thrive. Then we’ll begin their care plan.
