Opinions on taking a 5yo to the chiropractor - Adoption.com Forums

I have had Josh checked out once now for what the pedi thought was maybe growing pains. Pain in his lower back/spine. And occasional pains in his lower legs...I have noticed a pattern though, he will complain and then will grow an inch within a week, so there may be something to it.

His newest complaint is that the back of his neck hurts, he says he can't ride on the merry go round because turning in fast circles makes his neck hurt. As a nurse, I know all about illnesses involving neck pain and I know it isn't that, he has complained about this before, off and on for about a year.

I have heard of young kids going to a chiropractor, but wanted more opinions?

Blessings, Michelle
