Gentle support for kids who keep getting ear infections.
Ear infection after ear infection means sleepless nights, missed work and a miserable kid. Your pediatrician treats the infection. We focus on the neck and upper back, where tight muscles and stiff joints can affect the tissues around your child’s ears, with gentle, kid-friendly care that works alongside your pediatrician.

It may be time to bring your child in if:
In young children, the tubes that drain fluid from the middle ear are short and nearly flat, so fluid can get trapped after a cold and become infected. That’s why ear infections are so common in babies and toddlers.
The muscles and tissues around those drainage tubes sit right next to the upper neck. When the joints and muscles there are tight, some parents find their child’s ears seem to drain less well. Our gentle care focuses on helping the neck and upper back move and relax, as one part of your child’s overall care.
See our pediatric chiropractic page for everything we do for kids. Chiropractic care doesn’t replace your pediatrician. Keep following their treatment plan, and we’ll work alongside them.
Call your pediatrician right away for a fever over 102°F, a fever in a baby under 3 months, fluid or pus draining from the ear, swelling or redness behind the ear, a stiff neck, severe pain, or if your child seems very sick.

“My 11 year old daughter was experiencing off and on pain with her neck and headaches. She was nervous about seeing a chiropractor and how it would feel. The entire staff at Highland has been fantastic and she loves coming here now. … As a parent – this has been the best experience – highly recommend!!”
