Gentle, Natural Support for Growing Bodies

At Frideres Chiropractic Clinic, we believe that healthy kids grow into healthy adults. From the earliest days of life through the teenage years, chiropractic care can help your child’s body stay balanced, resilient, and functioning at its best.

Whether your child is dealing with colic, ear infections, sports injuries, posture challenges, or growing pains, we’re here to provide gentle, natural care that supports their health and development.

Why Chiropractic Care for Children?

Children experience physical stresses from birth onward—whether from the birth process, learning to walk, tumbles and falls, or the demands of sports and school. These can affect the spine and nervous system, sometimes leading to discomfort, tension, or delayed healing.

Chiropractic care can help by:

• Correcting small misalignments that affect nerve function

• Supporting healthy growth and posture

• Helping reduce tension and inflammation

• Encouraging better sleep, digestion, focus, and behavior

Common Reasons Parents Bring Their Children to Us

Some of the most common reasons families choose pediatric chiropractic care include:

• Birth trauma or delivery strain

• Colic, reflux, or digestive discomfort

• Recurring ear infections

• Torticollis or head tilt

• Posture and alignment concerns (like heavy backpacks)

• Sports injuries or falls

• Focus, behavior, or sleep challenges related to nervous system stress

Our adjustments are gentle, specific, and tailored to your child’s age, body, and comfort level—no cracking or twisting.

Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Kids?

Yes! Chiropractic care for children is very safe when performed by a trained professional. Dr. Mark uses light, gentle pressure—often no more than you’d use to check the ripeness of a tomato.

Many kids find their visits relaxing and enjoyable, and parents appreciate the thorough, thoughtful care we provide.

What to Expect at Your Child’s Visit

Every child’s visit begins with a full consultation and gentle exam. We’ll discuss their health history, current challenges, and your goals as a parent.

Your child’s care plan may include:
