Health For Life Chiropractic has a GIFT to your children.  It is our policy of this clinic that your children (under 18 years of age) are entitled to a FREE exam.  A child's spine is the most neglected part of their health care profile according to many health authorities. Children often need chiropractic care more than adults as they have frequent falls and injuries. Today heavy backpacks, long term computer & video games, sports can cause injury to the spine, and poor posture. Scoliosis may develop ages 8 to 18 predominantly females.   Many spinal problems can only be corrected at a young age and many more can be prevented. Remember PAIN is NOT Always an indication of a spinal condition. Just as parents take their children to a pediatrician and dentist, regular spinal check-ups are equally recommended. Chiropractic will detect and correct during the developmental stages of the spine, curves, and nervous system. If left uncorrected, this may affect the health and immune system of the developing child. The nervous system is the link between the brain and body.  So please take advantage of this opportunity and make sure your child has not inherited any of your spinal problems, or have it detected and corrected early.  Please call our receptionist, Lidia at (510) 357-1351 and make an appointment for your child, at NO COST!!!  Dr. Maria E. Manibog, DC specializes in adjusting or correcting spinal problems in children, as well as pregnancy.  We are located in downtown San Leandro at 369 Juana Avenue, off E. 14th St.  You can visit our website at www.sanleandrochiropractor.com
