in Clarksville, Tullahoma, Brentwood
Building Healthy Foundations from Day One
Every child deserves the best possible start in life, and that includes a healthy spine and properly functioning nervous system. At Tennessee Spine and Wellness, our pediatric chiropractic care provides safe, gentle, and natural support for your child’s development from infancy through adolescence. Whether your little one is just learning to lift their head or your teenager is navigating the challenges of sports and screen time, we’re here to help their growing body function at its very best. We understand that choosing healthcare for your child is one of your most important decisions.
Specialized Care for Every Stage of Development
- Gentle Infant Care – Supporting Your Baby’s First Months
Even before your baby takes their first steps, their nervous system is working incredibly hard, guiding every movement, milestone, and moment of growth. The birthing process, whether natural or assisted with interventions, can place significant stress on an infant’s delicate spine and developing nervous system. Our gentle chiropractic care helps restore proper balance and supports healthy development right from the start. Using the lightest fingertip pressure – no popping or cracking sounds – we can help address common infant concerns such as difficulty with breastfeeding or latching, excessive fussiness or colic symptoms, digestive discomfort and reflux issues, head tilting preferences or flat spots on the skull, and trouble sleeping or settling into routines. - Growing Children – Supporting Active Development
As children begin to crawl, walk, climb, and explore their world, their bodies undergo rapid and remarkable changes. Small tumbles, playground falls, and the everyday stresses of carrying heavy backpacks can contribute to subtle spinal misalignments that may impact how their nervous system communicates with the rest of their developing body. Regular chiropractic checkups during these crucial growing years can help improve posture and coordination as they develop new skills, support healthy immune function and overall wellness, address growing pains or minor developmental delays, and ease physical tension that may contribute to frequent colds, ear infections, or sleep difficulties. - Adolescent Wellness – Helping Teens Navigate Complex Challenges
Teenagers face unique physical and emotional demands that previous generations never experienced. From intensive sports participation and academic pressure to countless hours spent hunched over phones, tablets, and laptops, today’s teens need specialized support to help their bodies adapt and thrive. Our adolescent chiropractic care focuses on improving posture and spinal alignment during these critical growth years, enhancing athletic performance while supporting faster recovery from sports activities, supporting better focus, stable mood, and sustained energy levels throughout demanding school days, and reducing physical tension from stress, hormonal changes, and lifestyle factors.
Safe, Gentle Techniques Designed for Children
Age-Appropriate Care Methods
Pediatric chiropractic care looks very different from adult treatment. We use specialized techniques that are specifically designed for developing bodies, with pressure that’s often compared to the gentle touch you’d use to test the ripeness of a tomato. Children often find their treatments relaxing and enjoyable, and many even look forward to their visits.
Building Trust and Comfort
We understand that some children may feel nervous about trying something new. Our team takes whatever time is needed to help your child feel comfortable and secure. We explain everything in age-appropriate terms, encourage questions, and never proceed with any treatment until both you and your child are completely ready.
Comprehensive Family Wellness Approach
Working with Parents as Partners
We believe parents are the most important members of their child’s healthcare team. That’s why we take time to educate you about your child’s condition, explain how chiropractic care can help, and provide practical strategies you can use at home to support their continued wellness and healthy development.
Conditions We Commonly Help Children With
Our gentle pediatric techniques have helped countless families address concerns including colic and excessive crying in infants, sleep disturbances and difficulty settling, breastfeeding challenges and latching difficulties, chronic ear infections and recurring colds, growing pains and minor developmental delays, sports injuries and activity-related discomfort, postural problems from heavy backpacks or excessive screen time, and stress-related tension and headaches in older children and teens.
