Childhood Ear Infections

Chiropractic care is one of the best things you can give a child suffering from an ear infection. Doctors of chiropractic have often noticed chiropractic's profound effect on ears and hearing. Among many chiropractic case histories, those of T. & P. Roger, ages 6 and 9, are common. Both children were medically diagnosed with chronic ear infec- tions and had been on antibiotics for years. "Both children have been free of medication and over-the-counter drugs for the three years since their first spinal adjustment."',

Dr. G. Thomas Kovacs, D.C. described a 4-year-old-girl with chronic ear infections, a 50% right ear hearing loss and adenoiditis: "After six weeks of chiropractic care, a follow-up visit was made to her pediatrician, an ENT specialist. Not only was there absolutely no sign of ear infection or inflammation, her adenoids, which were the worst the ENT had ever seen, were perfectly normal and healthy...the family was told to continue chiropractic care because it had obviously worked."

It is essential that anyone with an ear infection consider a chiropractic spinal checkup. Keeping your child's spine free from vertebral subluxations will help your child's natural defenses against disease.
