Pediatric Chiropractor in Tulsa
Why Tulsa parents bring their kids in
Adults usually come in to get out of pain. Kids come in for a wider set of reasons, and the reasons change as they grow:
Chiropractic care does not replace your pediatrician. Talk with your child’s doctor about any health concern. Many families use gentle adjustments alongside regular medical care.
How gentle is a pediatric adjustment?
For infants, the pressure is about what you would use to test a ripe tomato.
What to expect at your first visit
Pediatric chiropractic questions, answered
Is chiropractic care safe for babies and children?
Pediatric adjustments use light fingertip pressure. For infants it is about the force you would use to test a ripe tomato. The doctor examines your child first and explains each step before anything is done. As with any health decision, talk it over with your pediatrician too.
What ages do you see?
Newborns, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens. We treat whole families, so a parent can get adjusted at the same appointment.
Can I stay in the room with my child?
Yes, the whole time. You hear everything the doctor finds, and nothing happens without your okay.
How many visits will my child need?
It depends on what the exam finds. After the first visit, the doctor reviews the results with you and lays out a plan, including how many visits to expect and what each will cost. You will know the full picture before care begins.
Does insurance cover pediatric chiropractic care?
Many plans include chiropractic benefits, and coverage for children varies by plan. We accept Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, HealthChoice, QT QuikMed, and UMR, and we verify your benefits before the first visit. See the insurance list or our cash options.
Do you see kids for sports injuries?
Yes. Strains and sore backs from practice and games are some of the most common reasons kids come in. Dr. Frost and Dr. King both found chiropractic through their own sports injuries as teenagers, so they know what it takes to get a young athlete back in the game.
