Benefits of Pediatric Chiropractic in Mataró

Child chiropractic not only helps improve the immune system but also reduces susceptibility to infectious diseases. Learn how in Mataró.

Infectious Diseases

Studies on how Chiropractic optimizes children’s health:

The study

shows that children who grow up under chiropractic care are less likely to contract infectious processes such as otitis, tonsillitis, and their immune system is stronger and better prepared to fight allergens like pollen, weeds, etc., compared to children who grow up under conventional medical treatment. (Infectious Diseases)

There is also a good decrease in the use of antibiotic treatments in children who are under “chiropractic care,” indicating that there is a low susceptibility to bacterial infections as a result of having a good immune response. Additionally, the response from chiropractic doctors who made additional comments was that the recovery period for children under chiropractic care with illnesses or other traumas was faster than that of their peers under conventional medical treatment.

While children treated with conventional medicine showed a lower propensity for childhood diseases when compared to those under “Chiropractic” care, on average 94.4% of the children treated with vaccines in the first group was the reason for their low incidence of measles. The comments made by chiropractic doctors regarding this were that although the children they treated presented symptoms such as a rash, the children were not harmed, and it was not because there was evidence of a rash that it could be assumed they obviously had measles. The hypothesis of chiropractic care is that it maintains and strengthens the immune system, and this is supported by observations made about children who, although they had the disease, their day-to-day life was not affected and their recovery period was shorter.

It is suspected that the negative impact of the confounding effect of immunization on the immune system of non-specific childhood diseases (such as otitis media, tonsillitis, etc.) could not be statistically proven through the study of a population sample, nor with other groups. It was found that the effect of keeping the immune system high had a beneficial effect in preventing these specific diseases.

The sampling of this study did not provide data indicating negative effects on the immune system.

From the comments made by several pediatricians, the misconception about children’s health was evident. 5 out of 71 pediatricians said that in their opinion the issue regarding otitis media was not valid since “9 out of 10 suffer from this.” Similarly, many pediatricians consider the issue regarding antibiotics to be invalid, as “all children have had antibiotic treatment at some point,” and this topic rarely can determine the number of prescribed treatments. These opinions are fallacies propagated in allopathic (conventional) medicine as this study has demonstrated.

In conclusion,

the study demonstrates that the premises formulated regarding chiropractic having positive effects on health are valid and prevent and help eliminate Infectious Diseases.
