Growing Pains and Chiropractic Treatment
Growing pains are a common complaint among children, and they can be worrying for both kids and parents. The term is often used when a doctor cannot identify a specific cause for the discomfort. While growing pains are not fully understood, it’s important to make sure there’s no underlying issue that needs attention.
Why a Thorough Examination Matters
If your child complains of leg aches, muscle soreness, or joint pain—especially if it’s persistent—it’s worth getting a professional assessment. A qualified practitioner can help determine whether the symptoms are truly “growing pains” or related to another condition.
Research shows that back pain and headaches in children are more common than previously thought. These issues can sometimes be linked to posture, muscle imbalance, or joint strain rather than growth alone.

Chiropractic Care for Children
Chiropractors are trained to assess and treat muscle and joint problems in people of all ages, including children. Treatment is gentle, safe, and tailored to a child’s needs.
Benefits of chiropractic care may include:
Reducing muscle tension
Improving joint movement
Supporting healthy posture
Relieving discomfort associated with growth and activity
When to Seek Help
You should consider a professional evaluation if your child:
Complains of frequent leg pain or aches
Experiences headaches or back pain
Has discomfort that disrupts sleep or play
Shows signs of stiffness or reduced movement
Early assessment helps rule out other causes, ensures peace of mind, and can make a big difference in your child’s comfort and mobility.
Chiropractic Treatment of Children
Chiropractic treatment is a safe and effective option for children experiencing growing pains. Children often respond well to chiropractic adjustments, which can help relieve pain and improve function without the need for drugs or invasive procedures.

We want you to feel comfortable and confident that your child is receiving the best possible care.
