Passaic County chiropractor Dr. Joseph Licitra says that even children can benefit from regular chiropractic care. Children experiencing issues such as colic, ear infections and ADHD may find alleviation through chiropractic adjustments, which help correct spinal misalignments. Dr. Licitra has been in practice for over 35 years and has an office in Clifton, NJ near the intersection of Allwood Road and Clifton Avenue.

It may be difficult for one to imagine that a child would need a chiropractor at all, but children’s bodies undergo a lot of stress during development. From awkward sleeping positions to the occasional tumble, children’s spines can slowly come out of alignment. If left untreated, these misalignments can affect their health, behavior and development over time.
Dr. Licitra explained further: “A child’s nervous system regulates all systems in their growing body like brain function, blood flow and bone growth. Maintenance is thus necessary to keep a child’s spine in alignment, which will then keep the nervous system at optimal function.”
As children grow older, their bodies undergo even more stress due to poor posture from staring at computer screens, carrying heavy backpacks, and sitting in desks all day at school. Despite their youthful resilience, it is important that they receive regular treatment from a specialist who can provide non-invasive care. Dr. Licitra said: “Chiropractic treatments can offer a pain-free solution to many issues children face today. The idea is to correct underlying issues before they become hard-wired during development.”
Dr. Licitra offers family chiropractic services at his practice and accepts many health insurance plans such as Aetna, United HealthCare, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. Aside from family care, Dr. Licitra also treats many other conditions like back pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, and motor vehicle injuries. He is the top rated chiropractor in Clifton, New Jersey and also serves surrounding areas including Montclair, Paterson, and Bloomfield.
He is currently offering free chiropractic consultations to new patients.
