Your body is ready to move from the moment you are born and is meant to stay active for many decades, even a century for some. In other words, you’re meant to have an active lifestyle and your body should be able to keep up with that active lifestyle. Chiropractic care can help ensure that your body isn’t holding you back from activities that you want to pursue.
Chiropractic is a natural, time honored profession that effectively treats a variety of conditions. Plus, it works for people of all ages. Anyone in your family can benefit from a visit to the chiropractor.

Chiropractic Benefits Broken Down By Age Group
Chiropractic care offers a range of benefits for any member of your family.
For Infants and Children:
For babies, the birth process can put stress on the central nervous system that can lead to joint
dysfunctions that contribute to common issues such as chronic ear infections, trouble sleeping, and colic.
As any parent knows, children’s play time can easily lead to injuries and accidents. Even everyday stress and strain from carrying around heavy backpacks or using handheld devices can lead to musculoskeletal issues.
Chiropractic care can help ensure that your child’s growth and development isn’t impeded by injuries or dysfunctions.
For Teens:
From sports injuries to poor posture, teens are prone to poor health habits that can lead to long term issues. Regular chiropractic care can help them stay strong and flexible while also helping to relieve any pain and stiffness they may encounter from injuries and posture.
For Adults:
By the time you enter adulthood, your body has been through a lot. Chiropractors often perform spinal adjustments to help heal old injuries that have been long left neglected.
Many adults also perform jobs that are physically demanding –– whether you’re on your feet all day or sitting behind a desk, it all takes a toll on your body. Some of the benefits to chiropractic care as an adult are reduced pain, better sleep, and less stress.
For Seniors:
Many older people who seek out chiropractic care report vast improvements to their quality of life. Chiropractic techniques used on seniors can help improve balance as well as range of motion in the joints. These techniques also help reduce symptoms from degenerative conditions such as arthritis.
From the time you’re just a baby crawling on all fours to the time you’re a senior trying to perfect your golf swing, chiropractic care has something to offer you and your family members. It’s never too late (or too early) to start. Call North County Pain Relief at (314) 731-4201 to schedule an appointment now.
