How Old Do You Have To Be To See A Chiropractor?

Is there an age requirement to see a chiropractor? I've told my patients over and over again that "you're never too old to get an adjustment" and that's the truth. The oldest person I ever adjusted was 94 years old. (If you know anyone older, send them my way -- it'll help my story!)

So.. is anyone too young to get an adjustment?

The soonest I've ever adjusted anyone was within an hour of their birth. My own kids! My youngest had the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck 4 times when he was born. He didn't look so great when he first showed up in the world.

Of course, being chiropractors, we were very concerned about his spine. I checked him within an hour and found a misalignment of his spine at very first vertebrae. So I adjusted him. No, I didn't lay him on the table and give him a good "crack." It was just the slightest pressure from my pinkie finger to the right bone moving it in the right direction.

If you meet him, you'll know he's as healthy as could be. Glad I didn't have to find out how that early trauma might have had an effect on his health.
