How to Have Healthier Kids

Two researchers set out to topple chiropractic or make it rock solid. They actually used kids for this study. They looked at 200 kids from chiropractors and 200 kids from pediatricians and went head to head. Here were the results:

• 20% fewer kids used medications with chiropractic care
• Almost 50% of the chiro kids never needed an antibiotic, while only 12% of the other kids didn’t use antibiotics
• 17% fewer kids had tonsillitis with chiropractic care
• The most important one of all: The #1 reason kids end up in hospitals
  • Ear Infections—-70% of the chiro kids never had one.
  • 80% of the pediatricians kids had them

“ This has shown that children raised under chiropractic care are less prone to infectious processes… and that their immune systems are better able to cope with allergens such as pollen, weeds, grasses, etc. as compared to children raised under allopathic care.” ¹

(Allopathic just means medical care)

Since 46% of children in school surveyed have back pain, and back pain is a tell tale sign that there is something wrong, so there are a lot of kids out there who could benefit from seeing a chiropractor.

Dr. Barry Hitchcock is an expert on the non-surgical treatment of migraines and headache, neck and back pain, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, hip, shoulder and knee pain. Dr. Hitchcock has helped thousands of northeast Georgians to live pain free.
