A Family-Focused Chiropractic Office: Why Pediatric Care Matters
At Canalview Chiropractic, we believe that chiropractic care isn’t just for adults—it’s for the whole family! From pregnancy to postpartum, newborns to grandparents, our goal is to create a welcoming space where everyone feels supported on their wellness journey.
But one area we’re especially passionate about? Pediatric chiropractic care.
Expert Care for Your Little One
Dr. Nikki isn’t just a chiropractor—she’s pediatric-certified through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), making her the only chiropractor in Oswego County with this specialized training. This certification means she has extensive knowledge of how to safely and effectively care for infants and children, ensuring their nervous systems are functioning at their best from the start.
Many parents seek chiropractic care for their babies and children for reasons such as:
Newborn Tension & Birth Recovery – Birth can be tough on a baby’s body! Gentle chiropractic adjustments help ease tension and support a healthy start.
Breastfeeding & Latching Challenges – Restrictions in the neck and jaw can affect a baby’s ability to latch. Chiropractic care can help improve comfort and coordination for a smoother nursing experience.
Sleep Struggles & Colic – A well-balanced nervous system plays a key role in sleep and digestion. Many parents report improvements in sleep and fussiness after gentle adjustments.
Growing Pains & Developmental Milestones – As kids grow, their bodies undergo rapid changes. Chiropractic care supports proper alignment, posture, and nervous system function for optimal development.
A Space Designed for Families
We know that bringing little ones to appointments can be a challenge, so we’ve designed our office with families in mind.
A Comfortable Mothers’ Room – A quiet, private space for nursing, feeding, or soothing your baby. Fully stocked with diapers, wipes, and a cozy rocker.
A Give & Take Community Area – Parenting is a team effort! Our swap station allows families to share and receive gently used baby and kid items.
A Play-Friendly Waiting Room – Toys, books, snacks—everything kids need to feel comfortable while they wait.
Gentle, Kid-Friendly Adjustments
Dr. Nikki uses a gentle, specific approach for infants and children—no twisting, cracking, or high-force adjustments. Instead, she uses techniques like the Activator Method and light fingertip pressure, ensuring safe and comfortable care for even the tiniest patients.
