Not so FAQ, but very important:

Q: You can treat kids and babies too?!?

A: Yes, we can and do.  Our own children began chiropractic care within a few hours of birth.

If you don't treat your children when they first have a problem, they will continue to progress until they become like you when you hurt...  Please don't make them suffer.  If you notice their little attitudes have changed, maybe they just aren't functioning as well as they could be.
