Pediatric Chiropractic
Our pediatric care is grounded in the belief that children are naturally meant to be healthy, strong, and vibrant from birth through adulthood. Unfortunately, many families face a different reality.
Today, more children are struggling with chronic health issues such as allergies, asthma, immune challenges, sensory disorders, food sensitivities, and ADHD. These problems often begin early in life due to acute stresses like prenatal strain, birth trauma, or medical interventions during delivery. These early stresses can lead to conditions like colic, reflux, immune and digestive challenges, delayed milestones, speech difficulties, and ear infections, which may set the stage for chronic health issues without proper support.
At TFC, our pediatric care focuses on identifying the root cause of your child's health challenges. We provide a comprehensive plan to help your child overcome these obstacles and thrive, ensuring they can live life to the fullest.

Yes! Pediatric chiropractic care is gentle, safe, and tailored to a child’s developing body. We use light, precise adjustments to support proper spinal alignment and nervous system function. Research and clinical experience suggest that chiropractic care can help with common childhood concerns like colic, ear infections, and posture issues.

We bring a very unique approach to health care not offered by any other practitioner. What makes pediatric chiropractic most unique is our 100% focus on the central and autonomic nervous system. The nervous system is an intricate network that encompasses the brain, brainstem, spinal cord, and millions of nerves that branch from the neurospinal network to every tissue, organ, and cell in the body. The function of the nervous system is to perceive the environment and coordinate the behavior of all other cells. Simply put, the nervous is the boss. If anything interferes with the nervous system, health sufferers.
Pediatric neurologic-based chiropractic works with exactly that: the things that interfere with the nervous system. Prenatal/maternal stress and Birth intervention/trauma are the two biggest stressors on a brand-new baby. These two things show up in 80-90% of cases of colic, reflux, constipation, eczema, ear infections, RSV, croup, etc. in infants.
Because of these two major early life and neurodevelopmental stressors trigger what is known as subluxation, where the central nervous system shifts to running on flight or flight mode. This leads to another condition called dysautonomia.
Subluxation, dysautonomia, and the function of the nervous system are major missing links that very few parents know about and are the single most important elements of our health. This is the core foundational focus of neurologic-based pediatric chiropractic care. When you focus on this one system that makes every other system work you get incredible results.

A pediatric chiropractic visit begins with a thorough consultation to understand your child’s health history and concerns. We dive deep into your child's history to uncover the root causes of what is making our kids sick. Our initial visit will include our INSiGHT Scans that measure stress. Our INSiGHT scans do three very important things for us:
Find out if your child’s nervous system is sick, stressed, and subluxated or not.
If so, quantify and measure how much stress and subluxation is there, and how long it has likely been there
If so, locate and help us track down exactly where the subluxations (stress and interference) are within the NeuroSpinal System.
The great thing about INSiGHT Scans is that it's easy, painless, fast, and simple. It takes 15 minutes, and since the scans are reading and receiving neurological information from the body, there is absolutely no radiation or input like an X-ray, MRI, or CT scan.
Once we have your child’s scans, we will sit down with you and your report of findings and lay out a fully personalized Care Plan for your child. We will let you know exactly how long it will take to restore your child's neurological health, how many adjustments, and exactly what to expect along the way.

An adjustment does two things:
It reduces and releases that built-up stress and tension (subluxation)
It activates and stimulates the healing capacity of the body by bringing the autonomic nervous system back into balance.
The adjustment is not the cure. The only way the body heals, restores, and cures, is on its own. But, it can't get that job done with interference to the master control system that controls all healing and function. The adjustment helps unwind and restore neurological healing that has been stuck and limited inside your child.

Children can benefit from chiropractic care as early as infancy. Many parents bring their newborns in for gentle adjustments to address birth-related misalignments or feeding difficulties. As children grow, chiropractic care can support their posture, coordination, and overall well-being, especially during developmental milestones.

Pediatric chiropractors commonly help with conditions such as colic, ear infections, torticollis, reflux, and sleep disturbances. Additionally, chiropractic care can aid in improving posture, reducing tension from screen time, and supporting overall nervous system function, which plays a role in immunity, digestion, and development.
