Increasing the cervical lordosis in pediatrics: A Chiropractic BioPhysics® case series

Abstract

This case series describes the increase in cervical lordosis and resolution of symptoms in two pediatric males, aged 5 and 6-years of age. Both patients presented with neck symptoms and cervical hypolordosis. Both patients were treated using Chiropractic Biophysics  technique including full-spine spinal manipulative therapy, mirror image drop-table adjustments with daily home cervical extension traction on the pediatric cervical Denneroll
orthotic. Both received 18 treatments over 6.5- and 7.5-weeks, respectively. Both patients attained relief of symptoms and had a significant increase in cervical lordosis.
