Pediatric Chiropractic Care in Prescott AZ
Helping Children Thrive
Dr. Nick loves seeing children of all ages, from newborns to older children. Here are some of the conditions that have improved while under pediatric care:
- Acid reflux
- Colic
- Constipation
- Ear infections
- Latching issues
- Sleep issues
- Torticollis
Providing Gentle Adjustments
Children are adjusted differently than adults and Dr. Nick only uses gentle adjustments. He employs a tonal technique that allows him to adjust kids without any quick movements that could prove startling.
We desire that every child who walks into the practice be completely comfortable before receiving chiropractic care. We have toys available that we can adjust first so your child can see what the process is like. Or, if your child just wants to come in and play and become familiar with the environment, that’s fine too.

Chiropractic Care has often been shown to address childhood and infant issues such as ear infections, acid reflux, and colic better than conventional allopathic medicine. The conventional ways of antibiotics, pain relievers, and acid reducers tend to have long-term negative side effects such as microbiome issues and bone demineralization.
The two systems are not the same. Chiropractic looks to enhance the body’s natural ability to heal and adapt while the conventional system looks to disguise symptoms until another arises, often due to side effects from the original remedy.
Chiropractors help build a well-functioning nervous system for the body during its many growing phases. This simple fact has encouraged many parents to seek out pro-active chiropractic health care for their families.[2]

In its broadest sense, chiropractic has three major benefits:
- It seeks to identify the root cause of unwanted symptoms controlled by the nervous system.
- It helps the body to adapt better to the surrounding environment by encouraging normal physiology.
- It reduces or eliminates pain that is an alarm system for underlying dysfunction.
Chiropractic Care for children is always beneficial whether there is pain, symptoms or just a well-child visit. One of the significant reasons it is advised is that children having better spinal alignment tend to have better posture. This affects their overall health and clears neural pathways for better communication from the brain. Some general benefits of regular Chiropractic care are:
- Better sleep
- Enhanced immune and reproductive system function
- Fewer colds, infections and illness.
- Improved digestion
- Increased energy
- More rapid recovery from injury or sickness
Some more specific benefits that we have seen when children are under regular chiropractic care are decreases in:
