Supporting Your Child’s Whole Health

At Absolute Wellness Center, we love to see kids come into our office. There’s nothing more fulfilling than seeing a child start down the path of health and wellness from such a young age. We are honored that so many parents at the Lake of the Ozarks trust their children’s care with us, and we are proud to continue joining them on the journey as they grow. Chiropractic can be a wonderful health tool that you use to help your child grow healthy and strong. Here are a few reasons our chiropractic office at the Lake of the Ozarks believes in adjusting children.


A Little Background

Chiropractic care is essential to your child’s health and wellness. Fun fact: more than 17% of all chiropractic patients are under the age of 18, according to the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners. Out of the 17%, nearly 8% are five years or younger. The younger you get your child started with preventative care, the earlier you are giving them the gift of health and well-being.

What Do You Know About Their Nervous System?

A child’s nervous system consists of their brain, spinal cord, and nerves, and it controls everything in the body. This means that their grown and development are based out of the health of their nervous system. Subluxations, also known as misalignments, in their spine can make the communication from the brain to the body challenging. The subluxations cause stress to the nervous system, and then it can make the affected area less efficient.

This isn’t just something children experience, obviously, adults get subluxations as well. Infants and children can experience subluxations from birth trauma, the minor or major trauma, and even developmental stress.

Fun Fact: During the first five years of life, the body will produce more neural pathways than at any other time. It’s important that this production is optimized through regular chiropractic visits.

Your’s Child’s First Adjustment

A child’s chiropractic adjustment at the Lake of the Ozarks is safe for all ages, even newborns! After an assessment of your child’s spine, our doctors will perform a very gentle adjustment using our hands or possibly a very small tool. These techniques will remove subluxations and will be quick and easy.

What Can Improve?

Many parents are surprised at the improvements they see in their child over the course of regular adjustments. From sleep, and behavior to immune system function - children are greatly benefited from a chiropractic adjustment. Of course, that's just the start of it, here are some other things that chiropractic can help with:

  • ADD/ADHD
  • Colic
  • Torticollis
  • Ear Infections
  • Bed-wetting
  • Digestive problems
  • Allergies
  • Asthma
