Two Year Old Improves Health With Chiropractic Care
Two
Year-Old With Asthma, Digestive Problems And Frequent Colds
Responds Positively To Chiropractic Care
Co-authors
Heather Whittle-Davis, DC and Krystal Czegus, B.S., DC, reported that being
under chiropractic care themselves, the girl's parents brought her to the
chiropractor hoping adjustments would help alleviate her Stage 3 Moderate
Persistent Asthma. The girl also had a
history
of frequent colds and digestive problems. She had been prescribed two antibiotics for her digestive problems and
various asthma medications that had been prescribed by her pediatric
pulmonologist who she had been visiting every six months.
Her
chiropractic examination revealed numerous vertebral subluxations and areas of
mild to moderate heat imbalances. She
was placed on a care program of 2-3 visits per week with
reevaluation
every 12 visits. After 11 months, she was being seen 1-2 visits per week and
her parents reported a 90% improvement in her condition with no more "real
breathing episodes."
Five
months later, they reported a decrease in her sinus problems and no more need
for any asthma medications. According to
the authors, "the girl is currently being seen once per week for wellness
care. She has not experienced any more asthma attacks and has been much
healthier overall. She no longer has digestive problems or frequent colds. Her
parents reported that when
their
child does have a cold, she is able to get over it much faster and with greater
ease."
They
went on to conclude that "this case report provides supporting evidence
that chiropractic care can have a positive impact on children suffering with
asthma and help balance immune system functioning."
