Pediatric Chiropractor For Kids in Midtown East, NY
Many babies experience their first spinal subluxation, or spinal misalignment, during the birthing process.
This contortion or twisting of the spine can occur during natural delivery or C-section. The negative impact, if left undiagnosed and untreated, means your child could have nervous system interference from infancy and throughout the rest of their life.
At Rowe Chiropractic, we help remove any interference to your baby’s growing nervous system by finding and fixing their misaligned subluxations.

We sit knee-to-knee for a detailed consultation on your primary concern to get an overall understanding of your health. We’ll assess your neurology, posture, and biomechanics during our thorough spinal discovery examination. X-rays may be taken to further identify the cause of your health issue.
How Our Pediatric Care Plan For Kids Works
1. Freedom of Knowledge
Even in the worst of circumstances, it helps patients to know exactly what is going on. Through one-on-one doctor patient reports and group education lectures we empower our patients with the knowledge and understanding of their specific problem.
2. Freedom of Choice
The fact that you didn’t know you are supposed to care for your spine from birth is not your fault, but it is your responsibility. OUR responsibility is to guide you in the pathway to health. It’s your choice to decide how you want to participate in your health care.
3. Freedom of Health
Your health is your responsibility. Our job is to share our findings with you and lead and encourage you in the pathway to health. It’s your choice to decide how you want to participate in your health care and how you want to show up in life.
A Healthy Spine Can Lessen Your Child’s Risk of Other Illnesses
A child’s nervous system is continuously learning how to adapt to the outside world. This is how they learn to survive and thrive. Plus, it helps our body’s build a strong and healthy immune system.
Proper spinal health allows your child to avoid any danger of nervous system interference. Since the nervous system controls every bodily function, parents who take their babies to chiropractors have noticed positive quality of life changes in their children.
Well-adjusted and subluxation-free babies have a lesser risk of developing ear infections, colic, torticollis, and sleep and behavioral problems¹⁻⁷ .
As your baby grows older and onto adolescence (or adulthood), studies have shown the benefit of chiropractic care with symptoms like asthma, allergies, and attention hyperactivity deficit disorder (ADHD)⁸⁻¹⁵.
