It may be time to bring your child in if:
If any of these sound familiar, a gentle exam is the place to start.
Kids are hard on their bodies, starting on day one. Birth can put a lot of pressure on a baby’s neck, especially after a long labor, a C-section, or a vacuum or forceps delivery. Then come the tumbles of learning to walk, sports, heavy backpacks and hours spent looking down at a phone.
When the joints in the spine stop moving well, the muscles around them tighten up. In a baby, that can look like fussiness, arching or trouble feeding. In an older kid, it often shows up as headaches or a stiff, sore neck. Our job is to find those spots and help them move the way they should.
Every visit is adapted to your child’s age and size:
Lots of moms start with our prenatal care and bring the whole family in after baby arrives. See our family chiropractic page. We work alongside your pediatrician, never instead of them.
Call your pediatrician or 911 right away for a fever in a baby under 3 months, trouble breathing, a baby who won’t eat or has fewer wet diapers, a stiff neck with a fever, or a head injury followed by vomiting or confusion.

“I started bringing in my baby when he was 3 weeks old. He’s 15 months now and every adjustment he responds incredibly well to. When he was a newborn the adjustments helped with his colic and constipation.”

“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!!”

Yes, when it’s adapted for children. Pediatric adjustments are very gentle. For some kids it’s as light as a simple press in the right spot, and we adjust our technique to your child’s age and size.
Newborns are welcome. Many parents bring their baby in within the first few weeks, especially after a long or difficult delivery.
No. Most babies stay calm or even fall asleep, and older kids usually think it’s easy. Plenty of them look forward to coming back.
Always. You’ll be right there supporting your child the whole time.
No referral needed. We’re happy to work alongside your pediatrician.
It depends on your child’s age and what’s going on, and kids often respond quickly. You’ll get a specific recommendation after the exam.
