Why parents choose pediatric chiropractic
Kids grow fast. They fall, twist, sit, sleep weird, play hard, carry backpacks, stare at screens, and occasionally launch themselves off furniture like tiny stunt doubles. Pediatric chiropractic at Care Chiropractic is gentle, specific care designed to support healthy movement and nervous system function as your child grows.
For new moms
We keep visits calm, explain everything, and use extremely gentle care when appropriate for infants.
For toddlers
Quick, friendly visits built around wiggles, curiosity, and the occasional dramatic negotiation.
For active kids
Support for sports, posture, mobility, recovery, and the growing bodies that never seem to stop moving.
Care that grows with your child
Every age has different needs. We do not treat a newborn like a teenager, and we definitely do not expect a toddler to sit still because… science.
Infants
Gentle checks for comfort, motion, nursing posture, and early development support.
Toddlers
Care for tumbles, movement patterns, posture, and growing independence.
School-age kids
Backpacks, screen posture, sports, coordination, and everyday aches from being busy.
Teenagers
Athletics, posture, headaches, neck and back stress, recovery, and performance support.
This is not adult care made smaller.
Pediatric chiropractic uses light, specific techniques matched to your child’s age, size, comfort, and needs. We explain what we are doing, why we are doing it, and we never rush a child who needs a minute to warm up.
“We want kids to leave thinking, ‘That was easy.’ Parents can leave thinking, ‘Why did I wait so long?’”
At Care Chiropractic, the goal is simple: help your child feel comfortable, help parents feel informed, and make care feel like a positive part of growing up.
Common reasons parents bring their kids in
After falls & tumbles
Learning to walk, climb, skate, jump, and “try something cool” can put stress on little joints and muscles.
Posture & screen strain
Phones, tablets, gaming, desks, and backpacks can create neck, shoulder, and back tension.
Sports & activities
Hockey, soccer, dance, gymnastics, baseball, football, and everyday play all ask a lot of a growing body.
Headaches or neck tension
We evaluate movement, posture, muscle tension, and spinal function to see what may be contributing.
Back pain or growing pains
Kids should not have to “just deal with it.” We look for mechanical issues and build a plan.
Wellness checks
Many families choose periodic checks to support motion, posture, and healthy habits as kids grow.

What the first visit feels like
We listen
You tell us what is going on, what you have noticed, and what you are hoping to improve.
We check gently
We evaluate posture, movement, areas of tension, and age-appropriate findings.
We explain clearly
No mystery. No pressure. You will understand what we find and what we recommend.
We make it easy
Care is gentle, comfortable, and adapted to your child’s personality and comfort level.
You should ask questions. We love that.
Parents deserve to feel completely comfortable before their child receives care. We explain the technique, the goal, what your child should feel, and what we are watching for. Good pediatric care should feel thoughtful, gentle, and transparent — not rushed.
Questions parents ask all the time
Is pediatric chiropractic gentle?
Yes. Pediatric care uses light, specific techniques adapted to the child’s age, size, and comfort level.
Do you adjust babies the same way as adults?
No. Infant and pediatric care is very different from adult care. The pressure, positioning, and goals are age-appropriate and comfort-first.
What ages do you see?
We see infants, toddlers, school-age children, and teenagers. Each visit is adapted to the child’s stage of growth.
Will my child be scared?
Most kids do great when things are explained in a friendly way. We keep the visit relaxed, quick, and positive.
Do you treat sports injuries?
We commonly help active kids and teen athletes with spine, joint, posture, mobility, and recovery concerns. If your child needs imaging or another provider, we will guide you.
How many visits will my child need?
That depends on the exam findings, symptoms, age, and goals. We will explain a clear plan before starting care.

What Our Patients Say
EXCELLENT Based on 411 reviews Posted on Google Eugene PHILLIPSTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m a new patient at Care Chiropractic. The two ladies were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. They were so helpful as I filled out my new patient paperwork, which made the process smooth and stress-free. Such a great first impression!Posted on Google Stephenie RitchieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband couldn’t hardly move when walking into care chiropractic. After one visit he was moving better and felt better than he had with previous chiropractors. While there the staff was super friendly and let me sit into a massage chair while waiting for husband to complete an optional aftercare muscle stimulation.Posted on Google Jackie PriceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Everyone at the office is very friendly and welcoming. They make sure to accommodate my schedule to ensure I get appointments when needed. Dr Sean takes great care of me. If anyone asks for a chiropractor recommendation, I always give them Care Chiropractic’s name!Posted on Google Kim TuckerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Care Chiropractic has been my go to for Chiropractic care for at least 13 years. The staff is always friendly and knows me by name. The office has an inviting open atmosphere and you feel like more than just a patient when you walk in. Everyone is very personable and accommodating. I have moved and am now over an hour away, but still make the drive to see Dr DeVries. I have never received care from Dr. Dunkel but he always make it a point to say hi and get life/family updates when I am in the office. They have a very personalized approach and customize it to each patient which makes the experience and care 100% better! I have been through everything with doctors from physical therapy, MRIs, to pain epidural shots, but what helps the most is the chiro care and maintanence provided by Dr. Devries and care Chiropractic. Highly recommend to anyone of all ages!Posted on Google Lisa WeilandTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great place for all your chiropractic needs! Everyone here is always friendly and helpful! Highly recommend!!!Posted on Google Kaelan SchildrothTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sean is friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly takes pride in his work. Every adjustment feels intentional and tailored to me. While away at college, I would drive two hours just to see him — I tried a few other chiropractors closer to school, but none came close. He creates a positive, welcoming environment and always brings great energy. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality chiropractic care.Posted on Google Tom CarterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Care Chiropractic is a very professional medical service. Two doctors operate and both are both knowledgeable and caring. I did not particularly believe in chiropractic but with chronic pain and little success with medical doctors, I decided to make appointment. After the first appointment my back felt significantly better and now, after 6 adjustments, I am pain free much of the time after nearly 40 years of serious and chronic suffering. I give Care Chiropractic my highest recommendation. The office is well managed and the doctors are available as needed.Posted on Google Paige KingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Staff was very friendly and smiley. They always say hello and have a great day! I Have been coming here since I was 10 and one thing is they truly care! When I was a kid and a storm hit when we were at the chiro or the sirens went off, they always checked on me and the staff would take me in a room with no windows and sit with me till it was my turn or my family was done. They always have patients interest at heart!Posted on Google James LibeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredible care and concern shown from every staff member. I've been going to Care Chiropractic for sometime now and I've felt incredible results. Both with my adjustments (from Dr. Sean) and alsoI have felt incredible benefits from their massage therapist (Kat). I would recommend chiropractic care from Care Chiropractic to anyone. Dr. Sean has also done incredible things in terms of adjusting my sister throughout her entire pregnancy! Updating this review to reflect that I’m still Being seen by Dr. Sean at Care and it’s still a big part of my overall health and wellness routine!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
