Growing pains are a common issue for children, especially during growth spurts. These aches and discomfort, often felt in the legs, can disrupt sleep and make everyday activities difficult. While growing pains are a natural part of development, they don’t have to be something your child just “deals with.” Chiropractic care can provide relief and help your child stay active and comfortable as they grow.

At Balanced Beginnings Chiropractic, Dr. Danielle, DC takes a holistic and gentle approach to managing growing pains. Often, these pains are linked to muscle tension that arises as your child’s body grows quickly. Chiropractic care helps relieve this tension, promoting better movement and reducing discomfort.

How Chiropractic Care Helps Growing Pains

• Relieves Muscle Tension: As children grow, their muscles can become tight, leading to discomfort and pain. Chiropractic adjustments, combined with soft tissue therapies, help release muscle tension and promote relaxation.
• Improves Mobility: Chiropractic care promotes healthy joint movement, ensuring your child’s body is functioning as it should. Improved mobility can reduce stiffness and discomfort, making daily activities easier.
• Restores Balance: Growing muscles and bones can sometimes fall out of sync, putting extra strain on certain areas. Chiropractic care restores balance in the body, helping alleviate stress on muscles and joints.
• Supports Healthy Development: Regular chiropractic care helps support your child’s overall growth, ensuring their body is moving well and staying strong through growth spurts.
