Pediatric Chiropractic in Kyle

Pediatric chiropractic is a gentle chiropractic approach for infants and children that supports healthy spine and nervous system development.

Why Does My Child Need Chiropractic?

When children have pain or injuries to their system, we do our best to figure out where it’s coming from and knock it out to prevent future problems. By being proactive, we can prevent any symptoms associated with the growth process, especially in the crawling and walking phase, and allow your child to reach their various milestones with ease.

Many parents don’t realize chiropractic care is available for children until they see the pictures on our walls of kids being adjusted. Once they find out, we start them on a wellness plan to prevent wear and tear on the spine and keep them healthy. Chiropractic gives children a head start on lifetime health and wellness.

Is Chiropractic Safe?

Considered highly safe and effective, pediatric chiropractic provides many benefits for your child, including improved function and development of healthy habits. A natural, holistic healthcare tailored to infants and children, our care is extremely gentle. Babies are adjusted with less fingertip pressure than you would use for testing the ripeness of a tomato.

Chiropractic addresses many pediatric conditions: constipation, torticollis, postural issues, better curvature in the spine, ear infections, asthma, ADHD, latching/breastfeeding issues, digestive problems and more.

Children love chiropractic! We put them at ease by playing with them. We might adjust a stuffed animal, have them feel the tools we’ll be using, or let them watch mom and dad get their adjustment. Once they realize it doesn’t hurt, they respond quickly and well to their adjustments. Before you know it, all that natural energy will be back!

Frequently Asked Questions

What should new parents expect during the first pediatric visit?

When parents bring their child in for the first time, my main goal is to listen, evaluate, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. The first visit is very calm and conversational. We’ll review your pregnancy and birth history, how your baby is feeding and sleeping, and any concerns you may have noticed—such as fussiness, head turning preference, or digestive issues.

I’ll then perform a gentle assessment of your baby’s spine, joints, posture, and muscle tone. This involves light touch and observation—nothing forceful. If care is appropriate, I’ll explain exactly what I see, what it may mean, and what gentle care options look like. Parents are encouraged to stay close, ask questions, and be involved every step of the way.

Why would a newborn need to see a chiropractor?

Birth is a big physical event for babies—even in smooth deliveries. The pressure involved during labor, C-sections, or assisted deliveries can place stress on a newborn’s neck, spine, and nervous system.

Some babies adapt well, while others may show signs of tension or imbalance, such as difficulty latching, favoring one side of the head, excessive fussiness, or disrupted sleep. Pediatric chiropractic care focuses on helping the spine and nervous system function as well as possible during this critical early stage of development.

What conditions can pediatric chiropractic help with?

While every child is different, families often bring their children in for help with issues such as colic, reflux, difficulty breastfeeding, constipation, torticollis (head tilt), uneven head movement, poor sleep patterns, and recurring ear infections. Older children may also be seen for posture issues, sports injuries, headaches, or spinal strain from falls or growth spurts.

Our care is not about treating disease—it’s about supporting proper nervous system function and movement so a child’s body can regulate and heal more effectively.

How is chiropractic care different for infants versus older children?

The techniques used for infants are extremely gentle—often no more pressure than you’d use to test the ripeness of a tomato. There is no twisting or cracking. Adjustments for babies typically involve light fingertip pressure or sustained contacts to release tension and encourage normal movement.

As children grow, care is adapted to their size, activity level, and development. Toddlers, school-aged kids, and teenagers may receive more traditional chiropractic techniques, but still modified and appropriate for their age and comfort level.

How do you coordinate with pediatricians for conditions like ear infections or reflux?

I strongly believe in collaborative care. Pediatric chiropractic works best when it complements—not replaces—medical care. If a child is under a
pediatrician’s care for conditions like ear infections, reflux, or feeding difficulties, we encourage families to continue those medical visits.

Our role is to support the neuromusculoskeletal system while pediatricians manage diagnosis, medication, and medical decision-making. When appropriate, we are happy to communicate with pediatricians to ensure everyone is aligned and working in the child’s best interest.
