healthy spine and structural system = A healthy life
Blockage of nerves in the spine, caused by misalignments, can lead to lowered resistance to disease, organ and brain malfunction, and other sicknesses. In addition to improved physical health, chiropractic care is known to improve a child’s behavior and emotional health. Health problems in childhood have been traced back to spinal damage. Many parents appreciate the importance of regular checkups for their children’s teeth, hearing, and vision, but not their spine and nervous system. The spine and structural system protect billions of nerve fibers that send messages and energy to every part of the human body. Regular chiropractic care could be one of the most important checkups your children will ever have.
