Pediatric Injuries
Chiropractic care can be very beneficial for children of all ages, from newborns to adolescents. Kids are always on the go and even though they will usually bounce back quickly from a fall or injury sometimes they need a little extra help to recover fully and get back to doing all the things they love to do. Whether you have a newborn that you want to have checked-out and monitor their developmental milestones as they grow or a teenage athlete with an injury that is impairing their ability to compete at a high-level, Dr. Newman can help! She can perform wellness visits, assess, and treat sports-related injuries, screen for congenital conditions / diseases, and help with other pains and conditions kids might experience as they play and grow.
