-Pediatric Chiropractic Care-

Dr. Wilhelm offers pediatric chiropractic care because children, like adults, may need chiropractic care due to subluxation of the vertebral joints. At birth, an infant’s spine can be harmed due to obstetrical manipulation and the birthing process itself. According to Larry Webster, D.C., a chiropractic pediatric specialist, chiropractic care is important after the birth process, after the baby begins to hold it head upright, after the baby sits up, and after the first signs of crawling, standing and walking. Adjusting children at a young age allows them to grow into healthy, fully functional adults.
