Pediatric Chiropractic

Pediatric Chiropractic

Gentle care for Boulder's growing children and teens.

From backpack strains to sports injuries, young bodies face unique challenges. Our pediatric chiropractic care uses light touch techniques appropriate for children, addressing common issues like growing pains, scoliosis screening, and recovery from playground falls. We see many young athletes from Boulder Valley School District teams.

Treatments are adapted to each child's comfort level, often incorporating play-based movements. We educate parents on developmental milestones and signs of spinal stress. Regular check-ups can help detect postural issues early, when they're most correctable. For infants, we offer gentle cranial sacral therapy to address birth trauma or feeding difficulties.
