Many families are turning to holistic and natural approaches to healthcare as a way to maintain optimal health and well-being — and one of those avenues is through family-centered, neurologically-based chiropractic care. Chiropractic care focuses on maintaining the health of the spine and nervous system, and its benefits extend beyond just addressing back pain. When you opt for a family chiropractic center, such as Dr. Gena Chiropractic, everyone in your family is able to experience the benefits of chiropractic care, no matter what age. That’s right, we can address the health and wellness needs of everyone in your family, from as early as birth to as late in life as needed, through a neuro-musculoskeletal approach.

The nervous system develops exponentially in the early years of life, which is why it is so vitally important to have a chiropractic checkup within the first seven years of life, with the biggest importance being as close to birth as possible. At Dr. Gena Chiropractic, we see a lot of infants within days of being born, and continue their care throughout their entire childhood and so forth. As these kiddos grow, when their immune systems are functioning at their best, there will most likely be fewer sick days, which lends to less absences from school and less days that parents need to call out of work. Our chiropractic clinic has cared for babies as young as just a few hours old, including right after delivery. Our doctors have extra training in and a passion for pediatrics.

We have also found that families under chiropractic care tend to make healthier choices for their family’s lifestyle, leaning more toward natural and holistic ideals and practices. Additionally, the whole family can be seen at our office at the same time. No need to drive back and forth multiple times a week or month. Visits are easy, convenient and fun. It doesn’t hurt that we have a kids play area in the reception space, so your little ones are always bound to find some fun in the office!

Everyone, at any age, can benefit from chiropractic care. Whether you are experiencing pain on a regular basis or just want to maintain general wellness, a chiropractic adjustment can do wonders for your physical, emotional and mental health. 

Here are a few of the most important reasons to see a family chiropractor:

• Pain relief: One of the most well-known benefits of chiropractic care is pain relief, especially in the back, neck, and joints. Chiropractors use manual adjustments to align the spine properly, reducing pressure on nerves and muscles. This realignment often leads to improved mobility and a significant reduction in pain. 
• Prevent future issues: Regular chiropractic adjustments can help prevent future health issues by addressing misalignments before they become more serious. By maintaining proper spinal alignment, the nervous system functions optimally, promoting overall health and preventing a variety of conditions.
• Enhanced immune system: The nervous system plays a crucial role in the functioning of the immune system. Chiropractic care helps to improve the communication between the nervous system and immune system, leading to a strengthened immune response. This can result in fewer instances of illness and faster recovery times.
• Stress reduction: Chiropractic adjustments can have a positive impact on stress levels. When the spine is misaligned, it causes subluxations and can contribute to tension in the body. By correcting these misalignments/subluxations, chiropractic care can promote relaxation and alleviate stress, leading to improved mental well-being.
• Better sleep quality: Many individuals report improved sleep quality after receiving chiropractic care. The relaxation of the nervous system and reduction of pain contribute to a better night's sleep. This is particularly beneficial for families dealing with sleep issues in adults, children and babies.
• Child development and well-being: Children can benefit significantly from chiropractic care. Gentle adjustments can aid in the development of a child's spine and nervous system, potentially addressing issues like colic, ear infections, and even behavioral problems. Chiropractic care for children is safe and non-invasive.
• Improved posture: Modern lifestyles, including prolonged hours spent sitting and using electronic devices, contribute to poor posture. Chiropractic adjustments can help correct posture by aligning the spine, reducing the strain on muscles, and promoting better alignment of the body.
