Family Chiropractic Care in Davenport
As an entirely natural approach to better health, chiropractic care at Hoover Chiropractic Clinic is all about getting the body’s nervous system to work the way that it should so that a person can function the best they can and be as healthy as they possibly can. Not only is chiropractic drug-free, but it doesn’t hurt and has no side effects. It also can be more affordable than seeing a medical doctor.
Our Techniques
Though we don’t use it exclusively, the ProAdjuster is what we do use on the majority of our patients because it provides an effective adjustment without twisting or any popping sounds.
We also have a Thompson table that we still use to adjust the patient’s low back if needed.
Why Should My Child Get Adjusted?
Our chiropractors advise that all patients of all ages can benefit from chiropractic, including kids. In fact, kids, in particular, can benefit from chiropractic as they fall several hundred times during their first five years of life. Chiropractic also can help with common childhood conditions such as colic, ear infections and bed-wetting. We find that kids tend to bounce back from sickness quicker than adults and they are able to hold the adjustment better than older patients.
During the winter months, chiropractic also may help to cut down on the frequency of colds, breathing problems or digestive issues — without using antibiotics.
Can Pregnant Women Be Adjusted?
Yes, pregnant women can be adjusted. To adjust a pregnant woman, we use an adjusting table called the Thompson table to accommodate their growing bellies. For many pregnant women, aches and pains in the lower back and hips are part of the pregnant experience. With regular chiropractic care during pregnancy, it helps maintain alignment, balance, and flexibility. Regular chiropractic care has helped women maintain their health during pregnancy. It has relieved pain in the back, neck, hips, and joints help to control symptoms of nausea. Since women who receive regular chiropractic care are taking care of their nervous system, many have found their bodies are better prepared to handle the childbirth process. When the nervous system is working properly, the whole body is working as it should be. With this in mind, many women who receive chiropractic care during pregnancy have shorter labor and delivery times.
How Do You Adjust Infants?
To adjust infants, we will have the baby lie on their mom or dad’s tummy so the doctor can perform a technique called Logan Basic. This light pressure technique is typically used on young children until the age of 2. After that, we can have them kneel on the chair that we use for the Pro Adjuster and adjust them with the instrument.
