Pediatric Chiropractic Care Greenville SC

Childhood is a time of rapid growth, endless movement, and constant discovery. But it’s also a time when the spine, nervous system, and musculoskeletal patterns are still forming—and often, silent stress builds before symptoms appear.

At Mountain Movement Chiropractic & Natural Health, we believe pediatric care should be proactive, not reactive. That’s why families across Greenville trust Dr. Michael Day to provide gentle, movement-based chiropractic care that supports your child’s development at every stage—from infancy through adolescence.

What Pediatric Chiropractic Helps With

Children’s bodies are incredibly adaptable—but they’re not invincible. The everyday stressors of growing up—from birth to falls, school desks to screen time—can lead to subtle imbalances in the spine and nervous system. Over time, these imbalances may contribute to a wide range of physical, emotional, and developmental concerns.

At Mountain Movement Chiropractic & Natural Health, Dr. Michael Day uses a gentle, movement-based approach to help uncover and correct the root causes—not just manage the symptoms.

Here are some of the most common pediatric concerns we support:

Head Turning Preference, Torticollis, or Flat Head Syndrome

Some infants favor turning their head to one side or have tight neck muscles that cause imbalanced head positioning. This may lead to:

• Flat spots on the skull (plagiocephaly)
• Difficulty latching or nursing on both sides
• Delayed motor development

Colic, Reflux, Gas, or Constipation

When the nervous system is stressed, digestion often suffers. Gentle adjustments help regulate the vagus nerve and restore communication between the gut and brain, leading to:

• Improved digestion and bowel movements
• Less discomfort after feeding
• Calmer, more settled behavior

Ear Infections and Immune Challenges

Fluid buildup in the ears and sinus pressure can often stem from poor drainage due to spinal or cranial tension. Pediatric chiropractic can:

• Improve lymphatic and ear drainage
• Support immune system regulation
• Reduce the frequency of ear infections

Bedwetting and Sleep Disturbances

Nighttime struggles are often signs of neurological tension or miscommunication within the nervous system. Chiropractic adjustments support:

• Better bladder control
• Improved nervous system regulation
• More restful, consistent sleep

Posture Issues, Headaches, or Growing Pains

Kids today deal with screen time, heavy backpacks, and rapid growth—which often lead to forward posture, tension, and discomfort. We help with:

• Headaches and neck tightness
• Leg cramps or nighttime pain
• Postural assessments to catch scoliosis or imbalances early

Movement Delays or Injuries

From crawling and walking to jumping and climbing, movement milestones matter. We support:

• Delays in rolling, sitting, or walking
• Injuries from sports, roughhousing, or falls
• Coordination, balance, and gait improvements

Behavioral, Sensory, or Focus Struggles (ADHD, Anxiety, etc.)

When the nervous system is overloaded, it can affect how your child feels, processes, and reacts. Our care helps support:

• Calmer moods and emotional regulation
• Improved focus and sensory integration
• A more balanced, connected nervous system

The Mountain Movement Approach

Pediatric care isn’t one-size-fits-all. Babies, toddlers, and teens all have different needs, different bodies, and different nervous systems. That’s why at Mountain Movement Chiropractic & Natural Health, we take a highly individualized, movement-based approach designed to meet each child exactly where they are.

Dr. Michael Day’s unique method blends clinical expertise with deep compassion, offering children a safe, comfortable path to functional, whole-body wellness.

The Day Method: Fascia Release, Neuro Reset & Movement Evaluation

Dr. Day created The Day Method to uncover the why behind symptoms—especially in growing bodies. It includes:

• Fascial mapping and release to reduce stored tension
• Neuro reset techniques to rebalance the brain-body connection
• Functional movement evaluations to spot asymmetry, weakness, or compensation patterns before they become long-term issues

This isn’t just “crack and go” care. It’s precision-focused healing for the whole child—physically and neurologically.

No Scary Tools—Just Gentle Touch and Connection

There’s no clunky equipment, no loud popping, and no pressure to perform.
Instead, your child will experience:

• Light, calming adjustments using fingertips or handheld instruments
• Soft tissue techniques to ease tension in muscles, fascia, and ligaments
• Plenty of time to adjust emotionally, not just physically

We build trust through connection, patience, and playfulness. Kids often can’t wait to come back.

Holistic Care for Every Stage of Development

From newborns fresh out of the womb to pre-teens dealing with sports strain, Dr. Day customizes care that honors:

• Your child’s age
• Their developmental stage
• Their emotional and sensory needs
• Their current lifestyle and stress levels

This whole-body view allows us to work with the body—not against it—to restore balance naturally.

No Forced Adjustments or Unnecessary Imaging

We believe in minimal intervention, maximum impact.

• No X-rays unless truly needed
• No aggressive or high-velocity techniques
• No rushing through care plans

Instead, we partner with parents to create a gentle, effective plan that empowers healing from the inside out.

We create a rhythm of care that’s calm, informative, and centered around your child’s unique needs and stage of development.

Detailed Intake: Your Child’s Full Story

Before any hands-on care begins, we take time to understand:

• Birth history (vaginal, C-section, assisted delivery, NICU stay)
• Developmental milestones (rolling, crawling, walking)
• Current concerns (digestive, sleep, behavior, posture, movement)
• Any injuries, illnesses, or sensory challenges

Because when we know the whole story, we can care for the whole child.

Functional Movement Assessments (Not Just Spine-Focused)

Dr. Day’s evaluations go far beyond spinal alignment. We assess:

• Core stability, balance, and reflex integration
• Muscle tone, fascial tension, and symmetry
• Head shape, neck motion, and cranial rhythm
• Gait, crawling patterns, and movement coordination (age-appropriate)

This holistic lens gives us insight into how your child’s nervous system and body are communicating.

Parental Coaching for Movement & Regulation at Home

Each visit includes personalized tips for home support, such as:

• Posture and carrying positions
• Tummy time ideas or movement play
• Breath and regulation techniques
• Tips for supporting sleep, digestion, and mood naturally

We’re here to equip and empower you—because you’re your child’s #1 advocate and healer.

After your first visit, Dr. Day will provide a clear care plan that’s:

• Tailored to your child’s needs and nervous system response
