What is said by Growing Pains?

Achy legs holding the kid up at night? They can suffer from growing pain. In school-age girls, restless nights with aching and throbbing calves, shins and thighs can be the product of development.

While the name is deceiving, growing pains do not often exist when development happens or during fast growth spans of time. Studies have demonstrated that increasing discomfort could be a misconception and that it is related to restless leg syndrome that happens during the day due to overactivity.

How will children with growing pains be supported by chiropractic care?

A better way to treat and alleviate swelling and discomfort caused by growing pains would be chiropractic treatment. Routine chiropractic therapy is a convenient, non-invasive, non-addictive alternative to prescription or over-the-counter pain drugs (OTCs) for infants, which are typically administered to adults to help them relieve their pain and swelling.

Chiropractors provide a gentle, non-invasive, non-addictive therapy, known as chiropractic correction. In an attempt to minimize pain and enhance the function of both the injured joint and the nervous system, chiropractic changes reduce joint restrictions or misalignments in the spine and other joints in the body. By – joint strength and improving the role of your nervous system and spinal health, the body has the ability to better regulate symptoms triggered by rising pain.   

The following are some of the therapeutic benefits that chiropractic care and chiropractic improvements can bring to children with can pain:

• Improved joint movement and co-ordination
• Relief from joint pain and stiffness
• Increased versatility
• Reduced inflammation
