Would you ever take your baby/child to see a chiropractor?

Question

Would you ever consider taking your baby or child to see a chiropractor? Why or why not?

Answer

Would there be a reason not to if it's been recommended by their pediatrician? I don't understand.

Answer

Did and would again. LC recommended it, and he had appropriate credentials. It’s not like adult chiropractor, more like a massage. DD nursed sooooo much better afterwards. No longer tight and wouldn’t arch and be so stiff.

Answer

Bet decision I’ve ever made

Answer

The chiropractor is more frequented than the doctors office for us 😊 We love it and are all very healthy!

Answer

I’m gonna day yes because even though I don’t have kids (I’m 16) I know sometimes it’s necessary. I dance, and my back never healed properly after pulling multiple muscles in it. It hurts to do a lot of the things I do so it’s nice to go to s chiropractor. For my ankle as well because the amount of times I sprained it and once fractured without anyone knowing it’s basically out of place all the time😂 chiropractors are helpful

Answer

Yes. We took our newborn to a chiropractor who had a speciality in babies. Their work was so subtle, they basically just rested their hands on baby. Our daughter preferred to always look over one shoulder (we think that’s the way she was in the womb) and a couple Chiro sessions helped a lot. 
Just make sure you find someone trustworthy and with experience with children.

Answer

Yes if it was recommended by the pediatrician

Answer

My mother said she took me to the chiropractor a few days after I was born. Apparently my neck was out after my birth and so he adjusted me and I was fine. Birth can be rough for both Mama and baby. I have been going to the chiropractor lately but I've never given any thought to taking my baby there. I suppose if it was needed, I would.

Answer

If I thought they needed to go, yes. I’ve gone to them off and on my whole life. They’ve been a godsend for my pain management. 
That said, I would be very very careful choosing where to go. Many of them are competent medical professionals, who focus on adjustment, and know the limits of their profession. Unfortunately I’ve also encountered a fair amount of pseudoscience peddlers who are more  interested in selling unnecessary services and MLM crap than actually caring for patients.

Answer

It depends on why. If there’s no real reason then I wouldn’t.
