CHICO, CA--(Marketwire -03/25/12)- Masula Chiropractic Neurology and Family Wellness has renewed their focus on chiropractic care and wellness services for the entire family, including pediatric care. According to the Chico chiropractor, he provides natural alternatives to medical treatments for all members of the family, including infants, adolescents and young adults. The chiropractor cites various studies in Biological Psychiatry and Pediatrics to support the natural services he provides to treat ADD and physical injuries in pediatric patients.

Chico chiropractor Dr. Larry Masula stated that his practice, Masula Chiropractic Neurology and Family Wellness, has a range of natural, alternative treatments for the entire family, including pediatric care, that promote wellness.

"As a wellness doctor, I am committed to helping each patient find relief from chronic conditions and pain," said Dr. Masula. "Back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, migraines and other neurological disorders can prevent individuals from living a full and active life. Additionally, many parents do not want to treat their child's issue or their own condition with prescription medications, so we offer natural alternatives to pain and chronic conditions."

The wellness doctor, Dr. Masula regularly treats pediatric patients for injuries sustained while playing youth sports, such as soccer, running or martial arts. His treatments combine spinal adjustments with physiotherapy to restore proper alignment and help the body regain a full range of flexibility and movement.

"Many of our younger patients are active athletes who have sustained a sports injury," said Dr. Masula. "Healing properly following a personal or sports injury is especially important for younger patients. For example, without proper care, a knee injury sustained at age 16 can still be causing pain 10, 15 or 20 years later. Building a healthy body starts with a strong spine -- and children in particular deserve this strong foundation."

The chiropractor also provides nutritional counseling and detox services. According to a Korean study reported in Biological Psychiatry, environmental toxins may trigger or worsen ADD in children. As part of Dr. Masula's wellness care services, he works closely with parents to help reduce or eliminate exposure to environmental toxins, including tobacco smoke and lead, which were shown by a study published in Pediatrics to exacerbate ADD.

"Our commitment to helping young children manage ADD through detoxification and nutritional counseling is part of our practice's overall mission to promote whole body wellness for the entire family," said Dr. Masula. "If a patient has a condition that is better served by a medical specialist other than myself, I will always provide a referral."

"We believe that proactive wellness care can make a tremendous difference when it comes to reducing the risk for chronic illnesses and injury," said Dr. Masula. "When I initially see a patient in pain, my only purpose is to relieve the pain, if possible. Once we relieve the patient's pain, we need to strengthen, stabilize and correct their spinal condition. Then once we get the spine as healthy as it can be, we will want to keep it that way so we discuss wellness care options."
