Children often bear the brunt of their active lifestyles, and as their bodies are constantly growing and changing, it's crucial to maintain their physical health. Here are some points to consider:
- Complaints of Muscular or Joint Pain: If your child mentions discomfort in their muscles or joints, it's worth paying attention.
- Posture Check: Many children today develop "forward head posture" due to the increased use of tablets, smartphones, and laptops.
- Frequent Headaches: Does your child often experience headaches?
- Observation: Watch how your child moves. Do they favour one side or have a limp? Is one shoulder or shoulder blade higher than the other? Is their head usually tilted to one side?
Activity Levels: Pay attention to your children's physical activity and refer to activity guidelines appropriate for their age.
Chiropractic care benefits people at all stages of life, including children. Here's how it can help:
- Spinal Care: The spine houses the nerves connecting to every body part.
- Nerve Health: Misalignment in the spine can affect the nerves, which in turn can impact overall bodily functions.
