Pediatric Chiropractic in Loveland
Gentle Support for Growing Bodies
The birth process is beautiful—and physically intense. During the final trimester, your baby becomes increasingly compressed in the womb. Then comes the journey through the birth canal with contractions, squeezing, and sometimes forceps or vacuum assistance. This natural but demanding process can create stress on your baby’s delicate spine and nervous system.
As children grow, learning to crawl and walk means lots of tumbles. Each fall sends a small shock through their developing spine. Addressing these minor traumas early prevents them from becoming bigger problems later.
How We Help Your Child Thrive
Many parents bring their little ones to us for nursing difficulties, colic, torticollis, or general fussiness. We’ve seen exhausted parents arrive with crying babies, only to leave with their little one peacefully sleeping in the carrier. It’s incredibly rewarding to help families find relief and rest.
Beyond addressing specific concerns, regular pediatric chiropractic care supports healthy nervous system development and overall growth—giving your child the healthiest foundation possible.
Our Gentle, Kid-Friendly Approach
Here’s what matters most: we absolutely do not adjust babies and children the way we adjust adults. There’s no popping or clicking, other than what happens naturally. However, there is never any forceful manipulation. For infants, we use light fingertip pressure and a specialized gentle instrument called an activator. Many babies sleep right through their adjustments.
A Personal Story
Our doctor experienced pediatric chiropractic’s power firsthand when his daughter inhaled water during her water birth. With a low Apgar score and respiratory distress, he checked her neck while holding her, found a subluxation, and gently corrected it. She immediately expelled the water from her lungs, her breathing normalized, and she avoided the NICU entirely.

Your Child’s First Visit
We’ll start with a conversation about your pregnancy, birth experience, and any challenges you’ve noticed. Then comes a gentle evaluation and, if appropriate, that first adjustment—always with you right there. Most appointments for young children are quick, respecting both their patience and your busy schedule.
Babies can start chiropractic care from birth onward. Recommendations for how often or how long your child comes in is based on their individual needs.
