🧒 Growing Pains or Something More? How Chiropractic Supports Kids Through Growth Spurts

It’s common for children to complain of aches and pains as they grow — often called “growing pains.” But sometimes, these pains aren’t just part of normal development.

At Align and Restore Chiropractic in Pascoe Vale, we support kids of all ages 👶👧🧑 through growth spurts, sports, and everyday activities to keep their spines healthy and strong.

🌀 What Are Growing Pains?

Growing pains usually show up as:

• 🦵 Achy legs (often at night)

• 🤕 General muscle soreness

• 😣 Restlessness or trouble sleeping

While these are often harmless, it’s important for parents to pay attention. Sometimes, pain can be linked to posture issues, sports injuries, or imbalances in the spine and joints.

🌿 How Chiropractic Helps Kids

Children’s bodies are constantly changing and adapting. Chiropractic care is gentle, safe, and tailored to their age and size 💙. It can help with:

• 🧘 Improving posture

• 🏃 Supporting sports and activity recovery

• 🚫 Reducing stiffness and tension

• 😴 Helping with better sleep and comfort

👩‍👩‍👧 Why Parents Choose Chiropractic for Kids

• 🌟 Move more freely

• 🤸 Stay active and confident in sports

Not all pain in kids should be brushed off as “just growing pains.” Chiropractic care can support your child’s spine and nervous system so they can grow, play, and thrive 🌈.
