Q: What age should you start having Full Body Skin Cancer Screenings?
A: There is no set guideline for when to begin seeing a dermatologist for a Full Body Skin Cancer Screening. For most people, we recommend starting in your early 20’s to establish care and to get a baseline evaluation. Earlier screening is recommended for an individual with many moles, a strong family history of melanoma or if there is a concern from another physician. At the baseline evaluation, the dermatologist will make a recommendation on how frequently to be seen. The Full Body Skin Exam allows skin cancer to be detected at its earliest and smallest stage and is an integral part of health maintenance. If you haven’t yet been evaluated by a dermatologist and you are past the recommended age, don’t worry, it is never too late to come in for your first visit.

Q: Why do Infants and Children need Chiropractic Care?
A: Infants and children may need chiropractic care for several reasons, such as physical complications from childbirth, difficulty breastfeeding, torticollis, and colic. Infants may also develop spine curvatures when they begin to lift their heads and sit up. Correcting misalignments in infants and children helps reduce or eliminate problems and improves their overall health and wellbeing. Chiropractic Care can also improve a child’s mobility, enhance bodily functions, and boost immune systems by releasing disease-fighting cells. A healthy nervous system is vital to optimal body function, which translates to a better quality of life.
