Pediatric Chiropractic Care in Kentwood

We believe children deserve the same thoughtful, gentle support for their growing bodies as adults do. From infants taking their first breaths to toddlers learning to walk and school-age kids running and playing, our gentle, expert care helps promote healthy development and lifelong wellness.

Why Pediatric Chiropractic?

A child’s nervous system and spine develop rapidly in their early years. In fact, almost half their spine lengthens in just the first year of life. Even small stresses from birth, everyday falls, or poor posture can create tension in the spine. By working with chiropractors trained in pediatric care, you help ensure your child’s nervous system stays clear and responsive, supporting their body’s natural ability to thrive.

Childhood Issues We Address

• Infant Concerns: Gentle adjustments can help relieve colic, gas, reflux, and discomfort that sometimes result after birth. Your baby’s body is wondrous in its ability to adapt and self-heal when given the proper support.
• Immune Support: Chiropractic care may help strengthen your child’s immune response, potentially reducing ear infections, illness frequency, and more. We believe in supporting health naturally, without relying solely on medications.
• Posture & Spinal Development: As kids grow, we address spinal alignment early to support healthy posture, reduce strain, and encourage natural motion. Establishing good spinal health now sets the foundation for years to come.
• Sleep & Focus: Families often tell us their children sleep better and show clearer, more focused behavior after regular check-ins. Improved nervous system function can make a real difference in your child’s daily life.

A Safe, Gentle Approach

Our pediatric adjustments are nothing like what you might imagine. There’s no “cracking” or forceful manipulation. We use extremely gentle mobilization techniques, designed specifically for little bodies. Each session is tailored to your child’s age, size, and comfort level. Dr. Justine is a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), bringing specialized training and expertise to every appointment.

Partnering With Families

We view chiropractic health as a team effort. We’ll walk you through what to expect, teach you simple exercises or stretches you can do at home, and help you understand how spinal alignment supports your child’s overall well-being. From newborns to school-age kids, every child we see becomes part of our wellness community.
