Ear Infections Chiropractic, Ear Infections Chiropractic.  Ear problems can be excruciatingly painful.  Current data suggest that two thirds of all children have had at least one infection by age three.  However, there is hope.  Children suffering from ear infections have had documented success with chiropractic treatments. In a recent study by Fallon  JM  in the Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics 332 children ages 27 days to five-year old suffering from recurrent bouts of otitis media were given chiropractic care. The children healed quickly without antibiotics and experienced few repeat infections. Ear infections among young children appear rampant today and in the words of Dr. Mendelsohn  ” the use of antibiotics, antihistamines, insertion of tubes and tonsillectomy represents overkill for a condition that is almost always self limited “.  In a second study by Zhang JQ  demonstrated the effectiveness of chiropractic adjustments with children with acute otitis media. If a child has a history of ear infections regular chiropractic care can be seen as a non-invasive solution to the problem. A chiropractic adjustment can remove the nerve interference in the neck and cranial nerves allowing the ears to drain properly and also help activate the child’s natural defenses against disease. This is done naturally without the use of drugs.  The chiropractic adjustment helps to remove subluxations from the child’s spine thus reduce an important source of stress. Most children respond favorably by the second treatment. Ear Infections Chiropractic have had a long history of success going back to the 1920’s.
