At McNamara Health & Wellness, we take great pride in helping families live healthier lives, and that includes offering pediatric chiropractic care. Many people don’t realize that chiropractic care isn’t just for adults; it can also be incredibly beneficial for children, even babies. Located in Wesley Chapel, we proudly serve the surrounding areas like New Tampa, Lutz, Zephyrhills, Dade City, and San Antonio, helping families find gentle and safe solutions to support their children’s health.


What is Pediatric Chiropractic Care?

Pediatric chiropractic care focuses on the health of children’s spines, joints, and nervous systems. A child’s body is constantly growing and changing, and any misalignment in their spine can impact how their body functions. From infancy through teenage years, chiropractic care can help support proper growth, posture, and overall wellness.

Common Reasons Parents Seek Pediatric Chiropractic Care:

  • Colic: Chiropractic adjustments may help babies who are colicky by improving their nervous system function.
  • Ear Infections: Ear infections are common in children, and chiropractic care can support drainage in the ears and reduce infections.
  • Posture Issues: With the rise of technology, many kids develop posture problems early on. Adjustments can help keep their spines in proper alignment.
  • Sports Injuries: Active kids who play sports may experience injuries that chiropractic care can safely address, helping them recover faster.


Benefits of Pediatric Chiropractic Care

Gentle Adjustments for Kids
The care we provide for children is different from what we provide for adults. Pediatric adjustments are incredibly gentle and tailored to a child’s growing body. Dr. Mac uses light pressure to help align the spine and improve nervous system function.

Supports Healthy Development
From babies to teenagers, chiropractic care helps support healthy development. For babies, regular checkups can help ensure that their spine and neck are developing properly, which is important for activities like crawling, walking, and even learning to sit up. For older kids and teens, chiropractic adjustments help with posture, balance, and preventing injury.

Boosts Immune Function
Chiropractic care can also help improve the nervous system, which in turn supports the immune system. This is especially important for children who seem to get sick often. By improving the function of the nervous system, chiropractic care can help keep kids healthy and prevent frequent illnesses.


How Pediatric Chiropractic Care Helps at Every Age

  • Infants: Adjustments for babies are extremely gentle, helping with issues like colic, sleep disturbances, and developmental concerns.
  • Toddlers: For toddlers who are learning to walk, chiropractic care can help ensure they have proper alignment to avoid falls and injuries.
  • Children & Teens: As kids grow, they become more active, especially in sports. Chiropractic care can help prevent and treat sports injuries, improve posture (especially from heavy backpacks or screen time), and support growing bodies.
