Bed Wetting and Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic does not treat bed wetting. But numerous parents have noted that when their child had his/her spine treated there was an improvement or resolution of the child’s bed wetting.  Why is this?

There are many different causes of bed wetting.  One cause of bed wetting that chiropractors can fix is a subluxation (misalignment of the spine causing interference to the nerve that exits the spine at that level). If the nerve that is irritated leads to the bladder it can cause the bladder muscles to weaken this can result in leakage.  This problem is not unique to kids though.  Leakage is a common occurrence amongst adults too and also be the result of the spine needing chiropractic care.
