Ear Infections & Chiropractic Care
Ear Infections – Ditch the Antibiotics
Ear infections are definitely common these days, but they’re definitely not normal.
Re-occurring ear infections, called Otitis Media, account for a large number of pediatrician visits every year. As parents, it makes us feel helpless and oftentimes at a loss for solutions. Ear infections chiropractic care represents a natural alternative to the usual invasive procedures and is in the top 3 reasons why parents seek out a DFW Chiropractor.
Traditional & Invasive Procedures
The traditional approaches include:
- Antibiotics
This may be effective for acute bacterial infections, but many cases are viral, for which antibiotics are useless. Additionally, most antibiotics are only masking the underlying issue, which overtime may cause antibiotic resistance. - Surgical Tubes
Surgical implantation of artificial drainage tubes require the administration of a risky anesthesia and then they often come out.
A Holistic Approach to Ear Infections Chiropractic Care
What we are concerned with in regard to chronic ear infections?
Nerve Compromise
It surprises many to learn that some of the nerves that control, regulate and monitor the ear begin in the brain stem, continue down the spinal cord and exit out from between the bones of the spinal column. Changes to the function of the bones in the upper neck, called spinal misalignments, may compromise the quality of the nerve signals to and from the brain. Obviously, this can affect the ability of any organ or tissue, in this case, your child’s ear, to “defend itself” from infection.
Impaired Drainage
Nerve compromise is often accompanied by abnormal tension to the muscles that support the upper spine. Besides “protecting” the spine from further compromise, these muscle spasms can exert pressure on nearby lymphatic drainage ducts and your child’s ear tubes. This prevents natural drainage, more fluid build-up “effusion”, and therefore further compounding the problem.

What We Do & Your Next Step
Our approach is simple, yet effective! Since chiropractic care isn’t a treatment for infections of any type, when parents bring their child for us to check, we look specifically for distortions in the upper spine. If nerve tension, spasm, or spinal inflammation is detected, we gently reduce it with safe and natural chiropractic adjustments. This helps restore normal nervous system physiology and function. For a child or infant, adjustments are light and require a small amount of pressure, about as much pressure as you’d use to place a contact in your eye.
