Chiropractic for Babies + Kids in Central Florida
From the very beginning of life, a child’s nervous system plays a vital role in how they grow, develop, and adapt to the world around them.
From the very beginning of life, a child’s nervous system plays a vital role in helping their body grow, adapt, and thrive. During pregnancy and throughout the first five years of life, this system is developing rapidly — laying the foundation for learning, movement, and overall well-being.
At Intuitive Family Chiropractic, we believe children are designed to be healthy from day one, and we understand that everyday experiences — from the birth process to the ups and downs of early childhood — can influence how a child’s body and nervous system function.
Our pediatric chiropractic care uses gentle, specific, and age-appropriate techniques designed especially for babies and children. The amount of pressure used is often compared to checking the ripeness of a tomato. These light sustained holds may help clear interference throughout the nervous system — allowing the brain and body to communicate clearly.

FAQ:
-
Yes! Pediatric adjustments are extremely gentle — using the pressure you use to check the ripeness of a tomato. With Dr. Wipperfurth holding Certification by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics (CACCP), your child’s care is tailored to their specific needs.
-
The sooner the better! The youngest patients we have are just hours old! The sooner we can check their spine and nervous system, the faster they can begin thriving.
-
The birth process has a huge impact on a baby’s nervous system and can directly impact the baby’s neurological development into childhood. A study published in 2015 titled “Incidence of Somatic Dysfunction in Healthy Newborns” found 99% of newborn babies had at least one level of misalignment in their spine shortly after birth.
