Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is not just for adults! Pediatric chiropractic focuses on the health and wellness of children, helping them grow, develop, and thrive without relying on medications or invasive treatments. Children’s bodies are growing and changing at a rapid rate, and chiropractic care can support this process by addressing spinal misalignments (called subluxations) and improving overall function.
At Grounded Wellness Chiropractic we understand the importance of your child's health. It is our focus to check your child's nervous system and help to remove any interferences that could disrupt their body's overall development.
Pediatric adjustments are gentle and use the same amount of pressure you would use to check the ripeness of a tomato.
Why Chiropractic for babies?
Babies go through a lot, even in a “smooth” birth. From in-utero positioning to the pressures of delivery, little ones often begin life with tension patterns in their spine, neck, and cranial system. These subtle misalignments can interfere with the way their nervous system functions and how they experience the world.

Care for Toddlers & Children
As kids grow, so do their needs. Whether your child is taking their first steps, navigating school or sports, or facing sensory, behavioral, or immune challenges, chiropractic care can help keep their body and brain connected.
How Pediatric Chiropractic Works
Pediatric adjustments are very different from adult care; they’re gentle, specific, and always adapted to your child’s age, size, and comfort. In fact, most infants enjoy their adjustments and respond with better sleep, digestion, and more relaxed movement.
Our goal isn’t just to "fix" something, it’s to help your child’s body function at its fullest potential.
Care may include:
- Light-touch adjustments using fingertip pressure
- Cranial work to support head shape and neurological development
- Nervous system regulation to help with sleep, digestion, and calm
- Movement + milestone support as your baby grows
