Pediatric Chiropractic in Evansville
Growing bodies go through a lot, from birth and early tumbles to heavy backpacks and long hours on screens. If your child is fussy, complaining of aches, or just “not themselves,” it can be hard to know where to turn.
Why Pediatric Chiropractic Care?
Your child’s spine protects the nervous system, which helps control everything from sleep and digestion to focus and coordination. When the spine is stressed or out of balance, it can affect how well the body functions, even if they don’t report pain. Dr. Dickinson and Dr. Rehmel use light, specific adjustments tailored to a child’s age and size to ease that stress. Care is always non-invasive and focused on comfort and safety, in private treatment rooms where kids (and parents) can relax.
Support for Every Stage of Childhood
Many families are surprised by how early strain can start, and how much chiropractic can help. Pediatric chiropractic care may be helpful for concerns such as:
- Discomfort after birth or frequent crying that’s hard to soothe
- Poor posture, slouching, or “text neck” from screens
- Aches from sports, dance, or heavy backpacks
- Trouble sleeping or seeming “wound up” and tense
Your chiropractor will talk with you about what you’re noticing and help you decide if care is appropriate for your child.
What to Expect at Your Child’s Visit
Your child’s first visit starts with listening. Dr. Dickinson or Dr. Rehmel will review your child’s health history, ask about any falls, sports, or posture habits, and perform a gentle exam. Adjustments for kids use much lighter pressure than for adults, often no more than you’d use to check a ripe tomato. Many kids feel so at ease that they relax, smile, or even fall asleep during care.
