Adolescents & Teen Chiropractic

The digestive system is the most important part of your child's body. Without a healthy digestive system, they will not be able to stay healthy, which can lead to many other problems. The digestive system is responsible for breaking down food into nutrients their body can use. When this process is not working properly, it may cause pain in the abdomen and discomfort from a variety of nutritional imbalances.

Our Chiropractic Approach is non-invasive, making it safe for your child to receive care at any age. We also provide personalized chiropractic and nutritional treatment plans based on each patient's unique needs. Our friendly team of expert doctors will help your child find relief from digestive issues in no time at all!

Pain is a symptom of many injuries or illnesses that can occur in childhood. Pain can also happen when a child or teenager experiences physical stress or trauma. A pediatric chiropractor can help deal with these kinds of pain because it can treat many types of pain.

Children are not always aware of what is causing them pain, but they will know how to communicate their discomfort, which is why it's important for parents to take their children's complaints seriously.

At Anunson Chiropractic, we believe in treating each individual as an individual and providing customized treatment plans based on their needs and lifestyle. We encourage our patients to be active participants in their care so that they feel empowered and confident in managing their own health!

The medical community over-prescribes medication for anxiety or depression. However, if you are looking for an alternative method for treating stress in your child, consider working with a family chiropractor.

When kids are under too much pressure from schoolwork or other demands outside of class, they often turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms like overeating or sleeping too much (or not enough). They may also withdraw socially because they don't want to deal with people who expect things from them or make fun of them.

We have worked with many children and concerned parents to help them manage stress levels, while improving their physical and mental health at the same time. We urge you to get in contact with us today to discover alternative methods in reducing stress and living a balanced lifestyle.

Being active is great for anyone. The more activity you get, the healthier you'll be both physically and mentally. You'll strengthen your body, improve your self-esteem, and learn to be more agile. But as with any kind of activity, there's always the chance of injury. When it comes to teenagers who are just starting to discover their bodies' abilities and limits, it can be hard to know what might cause an injury and how to prevent one.

At Anunson Chiropractic, we can help resolve issues with soreness, inflammation, joint and muscle pain, range of motion—even bone deformities caused by sports injuries. If your child needs help getting back on track after an injury or if you just want to ensure their body stays healthy throughout the long haul of adolescence and beyond, set up an appointment today.

Have you ever thought about how much time your teen spends on their phone, tablet, playing video games or other activities that encourages poor posture? In a society where it's all about making the most of our limited time, we can't help but feel like we need to be plugged in. But did you know that all that screen time could actually be causing pain?

We see kids coming in with neck and shoulder pain all the time, and one of the biggest culprits is overuse of technology. Whether they're texting or gaming, they're spending a lot of time hunched over their devices. The back is a complex structure made up of muscles, ligaments, bones, nerves, and discs—and while it's built for flexibility and movement, too much strain on any part of it can cause serious issues down the line.

That's why it's so important as parents to address these issues early on and ensure your child's spine and neck are aligned and learn about using good posture so they can stay healthy for years to come!

When we were kids, we would think that our parents were being silly when they told us to go to bed early. Now we understand why they wanted us to get enough sleep. Sleep is important for everyone—but especially for children and teenagers.

The reason is simple: hormones. Hormones are the chemical messengers in the body that can tell you when you're hungry and thirsty, when you need to go to the bathroom, or when it's time for bed. When your hormone levels are out of balance, it can affect your sleep quality and lead to sleep problems like insomnia and restless leg syndrome (RLS).

If you have a child or teenager who has trouble sleeping at night or waking up in the morning (or both!), please set up an appointment. We'll get them back on track and rebalance their hormone levels so that they can get better quality sleep and feel less tired throughout the day!
