Back and Posture Problems in Children Care in London
Personalised Chiropractic Care for Back and Posture Problems in Children in London
Young people can develop back and neck pain from heavy school bags, long hours on screens, growth spurts, sport and falls. Most aches are mild and short-lived, but persistent pain deserves an assessment.
I’m Dr Ida Norgaard, a chiropractor at Inc-Health in central London. I examine children and teenagers gently, with a parent or guardian present, and I use low-force techniques suited to their age. See also our posture page and sports injury page.

Understanding Back and Posture Problems in Children
Common Causes of Back and Neck Pain in Young People
Causes include carrying heavy bags, slouching over phones and laptops, sitting for long periods, sports injuries, growth spurts and sometimes stress. Joint or muscle strains from play and sport are also common.
Most problems respond to better habits, activity and sometimes hands-on care. Chiropractic care for children is gentle and focuses on musculoskeletal pain and posture. I do not claim to treat conditions such as asthma, colic or ear infections.
Clear, personalised care for back and posture problems in children
Every consultation with a young patient starts with listening to the child and parent, a gentle assessment of posture and movement, and clear advice on next steps.

How We Help
How Can a Chiropractor Help With Back and Posture Problems in Children?
I take a history from your child and you, then carry out a gentle examination of posture, movement and the painful area. Treatment, where appropriate, is low-force and may include soft tissue work, mobilisation and simple exercises.
I explain everything clearly to both parent and child, and I will always refer to a GP or specialist if something does not feel right. Some symptoms need a medical opinion first, and I will tell you if that applies.
Treatment is non-surgical and drug-free, and your response is reviewed as we go. If your symptoms need further investigation, Dr Norgaard will refer you.
