Are chiropractors anti-medical doctors? No, your family wellness chiropractor recognizes the important role that a medical doctor plays in your family’s health and believes in a team approach. When your son or daughter needs medical attention, that’s where your chiropractor will encourage you to go.

Are chiropractors anti-drug? No, but they recognize that a body that is functioning properly may not need drugs. The decision to use or discontinue medications or over-the-counter drugs is between the parent and their medical advisor.

What if my medical doctor tells me not to take my children to a chiropractor?

For every doctor who tells you that chiropractic care is dangerous or a placebo for children, you’ll find a handful that will tell you that it’s perfectly safe and beneficial. The final decision is up to you.
