Ear Infections & Chiropractic Care

Do you know a child with ear infections? Are the parents frustrated with the repeated use of antibiotics? Do you want to see the research on it? While it’s hard to do placebo controlled studies in chiropractic, there are published papers on the success between the decrease in symptomatology associated with ear infections and the reduction of vertebral subluxation through chiropractic care.

Just this week I had a paper published on this topic and here’s the shortened version:

“The patient began care with bilateral ear infections. Care began with a chiropractic examination, utilizing paraspinal thermal scans, motion palpation, and static palpation. Vertebral subluxations were identified and cared for utilizing the Activator instrument and sustained contacts. Cranial adjusting, sinus work, and soft tissue effleurage of SCM’s were also utilized. The patient showed immediate decrease in symptomatology in the first week of care and during the fourth week of care had an appointment with the pediatrician revealing bilateral ear infections to be resolved. The patient continues under chiropractic care and has not had any recurrence of ear infections.”
