Is chiropractic safe for children and the elderly?
Chiropractic adjustments are safe for patients of all ages. Obviously a different technique will be used on an eight-five year old woman with osteoporosis than the technique use when treating a twenty year old college football player. Dr. Wassermann has performed hundreds of adjustments on children less than one year of age. He adjusted his own children in the hospital the first day they were born. Dr. Wassermann did an internship in a geriatric chiropractic clinic at Edgewater Medical Center in Chicago Illinois. This was a clinic inside the hospital that gave chiropractic treatment to patients eighty years and older.
