Teenagers
Teenage siblings
During the teen years physical activity becomes more organized and usually competitive, and sports injuries increase: skiing, sledding and snowboarding accidents, repetitive injuries from track, running and wrestling are just a few. Sports related concussions are an increasing concern.
Teen complaints of recurring headaches or chronic musculoskeletal pain should not be ignored. They are likely a sign of biomechanical injury. The most common complaints with this age group are headaches, neck pain and sore knees.
Many young people already struggling with hidden biomechanical injuries from the past are even more prone to getting injured further. They tend to be less coordinated, have poorer balance, less efficiently developed motor patterns and less developed proprioceptive skills. They may be shy and less able to participate socially, unpleasant, uncooperative, unable to focus and prone to hyperactivity, or unable to process new learning. These young people can have more gaps in their sensory-motor, emotional, or verbal-intellectual neural networks.
Hormonal discomfort and irregularity with the young female endocrine system can also benefit tremendously from Axial Stability Method® chiropractic treatment. Often correcting underlying structural instabilities, especially in the pelvis, allows the endocrine system to find an even keel.
