What does a pediatric chiropractor in Fort Collins do?

Children are not small adults, so their care is different. A pediatric visit at Martin Chiropractic of Northern Colorado is gentle, calm, and built around the child in front of us.

Dr. Brock Martin checks how a child moves and holds themselves, then uses very light pressure where it helps. The visit is unhurried, and we take time to keep kids at ease.

How gentle is care for children?

Very gentle. The pressure used on a child is far lighter than what an adult receives, often no more than the touch you would use to check a ripe piece of fruit.

For infants and young children, our doctor uses soft, low force contact. There is no forceful twisting. If a child is nervous, we slow down and let them get comfortable first.

Do parents stay in the room?

Yes. A parent or guardian stays in the room for the whole visit, every time. You are welcome to ask questions and to hold your child during the check.

We want you to see exactly what happens and feel good about it. Nothing is done without your understanding and consent.

What ages do you see?

We care for children of all ages, from infants through teenagers. Care looks different at each age, and our doctor adjusts the approach to fit.

Many families book children alongside their own visits, which makes one trip cover the whole household.
