Chiropractic Care For Children
From the moment of conception the spinal cord is one of the most important parts of a child’s body. Yet, without the language to explain their discomfort, many children can suffer from abnormal spine function and impaired nervous systems for years without parents taking notice. In fact, as children learn how to walk they can actually offset the spine by constantly falling down. During this stage, chiropractic care for children is designed to maintain spinal alignment and prevent such injuries.
As children get older, uncorrected spinal problems are often mistaken for clumsiness and other types of “growing pains.” When left uncorrected, traumas to the spine experienced during childhood can lead to much more complex health problems later in life. It is especially important for children to have chiropractic care once they have begun playing sports. When a child experiences falls, injuries, and overexertions as a result of sports, the damage can be much greater than it initially appears. Schedule regular adjustments to keep your children in top condition as they practice and play sports.
Chiropractic care for children has been shown to significantly reduce childhood ailments such as colic, ear infections, scoliosis, bed wetting, and weak immune systems. By using low-force adjustments specific for children, chiropractic care can improve your child’s health safely and naturally.

What Patients Are Saying About Healing Hands
"I had bad back pain, and honestly thought I was disabled permanently. A couple of sessions with Kelly really did the trick. Brilliant chiropractor, and the masseuses there are good too."
- Joseph
"The day after my son's first visit with Dr. Cao, he was pain free! She asked to see Sean a couple weeks later to be sure his adjustments held and now he is completely fine. Should he, or his brothers, have any falls or injuries involving their backs and/or necks in the future our first stop will be to the chiropractor."
- Scott
"Healing Hands is a very warm and inviting environment. I look forward to my visits there, because they are often the most relaxing part of my week. I highly recommend Healing Hands to anyone in need of help with back pain, but especially to pregnant women whose backs go through so much extra stress with the weight of pregnancy, and do not have a lot of other options."
- Suzanne
"I have been helped immensely by Dr. Kelly Cao. I was in a great deal of pain, never thought I would walk normal again, due to a slip and fall accident on black ice. I had a lot of problems ongoing from this fall. Dr. Cao always helps. No matter the pain, I do not take pain pills, I trust and believe in Dr. Cao's therapy."
- M. Tebo
"I would highly recommend Dr. Cao to anyone that has pain. She is a fantastic Doctor. Unlike most doctors that I have seen in the past, she listens and then addresses the issue with a comprehensive approach which combines Chiropractic Adjustment and Medical Massage. The bottom line is.... It Works!
I can't thank you enough Dr. Cao for relieving me of my pain!"
- Jim
"I've been seeing Dr. Cao for myself and thinking chiropractic adjustments would put an end to Sean's pain much quicker than traditional medicine's methods, I asked if she treats children. Thankfully, Dr. Cao does in fact treat children and my insurance covers the visits."
"The day after my son's first visit with Dr. Cao, he was pain free! She asked to see Sean a couple weeks later to be sure his adjustments held and now he is completely fine.

"I am extremely grateful to Dr. Cao, I thought I really did it this time. Dr. Cao is a absolute professional, she knows what she's doing and I would without hesitation recommend her to anyone and Wendy will make the insurance end if it a breeze."
- John
"After a single visit, my symptoms were substantially improved. I was able to stop decongestants without a recurrence of vertigo. I was delighted to get relief without medications. When my symptoms re-appeared this August, I returned to Dr. Cao with the same results. In addition, Dr. Cao recommended a new stretch to add to my daily routine. I am eager to see if it provides even more relief!"
- Ann
"Seeing Dr. Cao was the best thing I did in my recovery and I owe it to her that I am back to my old self again, as Dr's didn't seem to be too optimistic that I would feel 100% again. Boy am I glad they were wrong!"
