👶 🤸‍♂️ 👧 Pediatric Chiropractic Care (Babies, Toddlers & Kids) in San Diego

At LiveSmart Chiropractic & Rehab, we provide gentle, specialized chiropractic care for babies, toddlers, and children of all ages. Many parents in San Diego choose pediatric chiropractic care to help their children grow, develop, and thrive — naturally and safely.

Why Choose Chiropractic Care for Newborns & Children?

Birth is one of the most physically stressful events a baby will experience. Even natural deliveries can place significant stress on a newborn’s head, neck, and spine, which may lead to dysfunction or discomfort.

Gentle, safe chiropractic adjustments for newborns can help restore proper nervous system function and promote overall health. Studies and clinical observations suggest that pediatric chiropractic care may support:

  • Easier breastfeeding and better latching

  • Relief from torticollis and head tilts

  • Improved digestion and decreased colic

  • Better sleep patterns

  • Reduction in acid reflux symptoms

  • Support for immune function and fewer infections

Growing Up Healthy: Chiropractic for Kids

As children grow, their bodies go through rapid changes. Learning to hold up their head, crawling, walking, sports activities, and daily falls all influence spinal and nervous system health. Early chiropractic care can help ensure healthy spinal development, improve posture, and support overall well-being.

Parents often bring their children to us for support with:

  • Torticollis

  • Breastfeeding & latching issues

  • Colic & digestive problems

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Acid reflux
