Sarasota Infant & Pediatric Chiropractic Care

Safe & Evidence-Based Therapy for Common Childhood Conditions

The professionals at Platinum Healthcare Physical Medicine provide excellent chiropractic care to infants and children in the Sarasota area. Spinal misalignment is often common in children—think of how many times a child falls as he or she is learning to walk. Increased demands on schoolchildren has also led to kids carrying heavy backpacks to their school five days a week, putting a tremendous strain on their back. Our highly skilled specialists use gentle pressure and a light touch when adjusting infants and children.

We understand that a healthy nervous system improves overall body function, and our physical medicine techniques help with a variety of common childhood conditions:

• Colic
• Ear infections
• Asthma
• Colds
• Digestive issues

Is Pediatric Chiropractic Treatment Safe?

It’s understandable why some parents are apprehensive about bringing their child to the chiropractor. This is not a treatment commonly associated with younger patients, but it is actually fairly common for parents to bring to a chiropractor. Pediatric chiropractic care has been in use for more than 100 years.

Trained chiropractors learn special techniques that are safe and effective for young bodies. Our medical professionals will first meet with you to discuss your child’s needs, and any specific factors we should consider when creating a treatment plan. If you have concerns, we encourage you to ask questions and get as much information as you get. We can tell you why we believe this to be an effective treatment for younger patients so that you can make a more informed decision.
