Chiropractic for teenagers

Adolescence is a period of great changes: growth spurts, major hormonal changes, emotional stress, etc. Several factors make teens susceptible to serious health challenges. Chiropractic is a valuable ally in facilitating the transition to adulthood.

What stresses are often associated with adolescence?

  • Sports injuries
  • Bad posture (at school, in front of the computer or television, etc.)
  • School bag too heavy or ill-fitting
  • Physical inactivity
  • Poor feeding
  • Emotional stress related to school performance and community life
  • Smoking, drug or alcohol use

Why does a teenager consult a chiropractor?

  • Postural disorders (scoliosis, rounded shoulders, etc.)
  • Headache
  • Neck or back pain
  • Joint or muscle injuries (sprain, bursitis, tendinitis, etc.)
  • Growing pains
  • By prevention – this is the last chance to have a positive impact on the nervous, muscular and skeletal systems before the end of growth!

When to consult?

There are times in life that are more likely to stress a teenager’s nervous, muscular and skeletal systems. Here are the periods when we recommend a chiropractic follow-up.

  • Following an injury or other physical, chemical or emotional stress
  • When symptoms appear
  • During a growth spurt
  • Preventive follow-up once a month
