The health of your child is their most valuable asset. By including chiropractic in your family’s lifestyle, you may be proactive in promoting your child’s health.
We believe that each kid should be examined by a chiropractor consistently during their developmental phases and childhood. Chiropractic treatment early on may help your child’s nervous and immune systems develop properly.
As your child gets older, we want to ensure that he or she is developing in the best way possible. Spinal misalignment can happen during pregnancy, birth trauma, and when you carry your child improperly or for too long in a car seat. Common newborn health issues include colic, reflux, earaches, excessive crying, and difficulties feeding.

One of our top services is chiropractic care for kids. We use gentle manipulations and adjustments to help get your child’s body back into alignment. This can help improve their overall health and well-being.
Children of all ages can benefit from chiropractic care. From the moment they are born all the way through adolescence, a lot of growth and activity happens that involves their spine. Keeping their spine aligned helps keep them growing and developing as healthy as possible.
Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Kids?
Kids see Chiropractors all the time, and it’s highly recommended. Chiropractic care is safe for humans of all ages. Chiropractors focus specifically on gentle, non-invasive adjustments to the spinal column. When vertebrae in the spine become misaligned, they cause extra pressure on the nervous system which can cause unnecessary pain, aches, and develop into serious problems if not addressed.
Especially with children, spinal health is extremely important to promote natural healing and properly develop as they grow. We recommend children of all ages see a chiropractor on a regular basis, even with no signs of pain or discomfort, to ensure they are growing and developing properly.
The best part is, Chiropractic care can help resolve health issues for your kids without the use of drugs or invasive surgeries. With natural healing, we can help keep your kids healthy.
Commons Reasons Kids See Chiropractors
Kids are active. Playing with friends, engaging in sports, and growing rapidly puts a lot of pressure on the spine. Chiropractors can help kids manage pain and discomfort, improve their athletic performance, and keep them growing healthy and strong.
Here are some of the most common reasons kids see chiropractors:
A child’s spine might become misaligned without their awareness, causing them to feel pain or discomfort. Kids are not always aware or alert enough to recognize a condition developing. Even if a child is in pain, they may not be able to communicate it to you, which might seem like grumpiness, acting out, or continuous crying. Problems with the spine, in addition to causing a slew of other childhood problems such as colic, ear infections, and ADHD, can also be responsible for a range of issues.
We see kids from all over the St. Louis area to help them achieve optimal health and stay aligned while their bodies grow. If you’re concerned with your child’s health, Chiropractic care might be the solution.

Very friendly and professional. I've been having some discomfort from normal wear and tear on my back and they helped me quite a bit. Definitely recommend.
Dr. McGuire did something for me today that my spine specialist couldn't even do. He made me able to stand up straight with little pain. The spine doctor just gave me pills and shots that didn't do me any good. He said I still have a long way to go due to the many years of damage to my body parts though. This man is definitely worth seeing. He didn't take MRIs to find my pain, he felt it. People if your living with pain u have only been given pills and shots for that didn't help go see Dr. McGuire. You will be shocked to find out that a lot of your ailments are caused by your injuries.
I have been under Dr. Maguire‘s care for over three years on my initial visits. I could barely get out the bed now I’m up walking exercising and getting my life back.
I had my first ever adjustment today and left feeling AMAZING! Dr. McGuire makes sure you fully understand everything that is going on and is a great listener. I have torn meniscus in both knees and back pain and just after one visit my back feels great and my knees feel better then they have in a very long time! I’m very excited to be under his care and what he has in store for me!
Dr. McGuire has helped me with my back! I was a mess going in and 1000% better leaving! I can relax during adjustments because I trust him and his adjustments feel smooth not forceful.
Great experience. Injured my back at work and had it feeling right after 2 weeks. Kept going for another 10 weeks after. One of the best chiro's I've been to.
My appointment Dr. McGuire was great! He took time to investigate my injuries and find the source, rather than just going after the pain where it was occurring. I do jiu jitsu, so my injuries aren't the everyday back pain that people have. I highly recommend Dr. McGuire, especially for people who have martial arts-related injuries.
I’ve had issues with my back for quite a while now and finally but the bullet and went to a chiropractor and Dr McGuire relieved so much built up tension in my back that I honestly couldn’t believe, highly recommend, thank you Dr. McGuire!
I’ve been seeing Dr. McGuire for about a month and a half after being unable to stand fully upright without a jolting pain. He came recommended by both my husband, and my massage therapist. After 16 years of off and on chiropractic care, I’m so happy to have found someone who listens and doesn’t do the same song and dance and send you out the door. Each visit is tailored to how I feel that day, and my concerns are addressed in a way that is professional and easy to understand. He gives practical advice on how to improve mobility and I feel back to normal again!
I highly recommend McGuire Total Wellness! I work as a dental hygienist and consistently struggle with job related neck/back/hip issues. Dr. McGuire listens and asks good questions to understand where my pain is coming from, and it usually doesn’t take long at all to start feeling relief once he identifies the problem and makes adjustments. He also gives really helpful suggestions to keep pain from coming back. I’m so happy to have found a chiropractor I can trust and count on for noticeable results!
I came to Dr McGuire because of my scoliosis, he is so friendly and knowledgeable! Currently I'm doing weekly session, we already met several times, and I can see the improvement.
Dr McGuire is the best! He listens to you and truly cares about you as a person. He also cares about the community he serves and is ALWAYS using his business to serve the community whether it be a food drive, coat drive, pet rescue, or any way our community needs help he is there to help!
Dr. McGuire is awesome! He is accommodating, professional yet personable. Answers all your questions. Best of all, great at his job. Would recommend him to any and everybody.
My first visit with Dr. McGuire was a very pleasant experience. He was able to locate the source of my back stiffness and pain and did a gentle manipulation in that area. He also advised follow up stretches and exercise. I look forward to more treatments and a painfree body.
I had an amazing experience with Dr. McGuire, he's very professional and knowledgeable. I appreciate his expertise, he's caring and I and my husband left feeling great. Ready to take naps. I am definitely going back. You should try him for yourself you will be impressed as well. Treat yourself your body deserve it.
McGuire total wellness is awesome!!! He really knows to focus on improving areas of soreness, stiffness, etc.<br>I’ve only been going a short time, but feel so much better from when I started going, AND I’ve been fortunate to run into several childhood friends & classmates who are being seen there. I’d definitely recommend going
I appreciate everything Maguire has done for me as far as my health my my back everything is working according to plan I really appreciate this young man thank you. Thank you
I found Dr. McGuire a couple months ago and it's been fantastic. Not only adjustments, but the soft tissue work has helped my shoulders and neck and the resulting headaches from the tension. Couldn't recommend more!
Dr. McGuire is truly amazing. When I was considering the next steps for my ongoing lower back pain ( ruptured disc), he listened to my concerns and presented me with options. I initially had weekly visits and then transitioned to bi-weekly visits. I am so grateful that I trusted him, as he has supported me every step of the way. I have gone from constant pain to now working out in the gym five days a week. Schedule your appointment TODAY! You will not be disappointed.
Dr. McGuire’s wisdom and healing abilities have been life changing for our family! An absolute improvement for our health and well being. He has been incredibly supportive!
My visit to Dr. McGuire’s office was stress free he greeted me with a smile took time to listen after asking a question and explained step by step what he was doing. The office is clean, plenty of parking, and the natural sun light that comes in to the office helped me relax. Schedule a visit you will not be disappointed.
My experience was very therapeutic and I slept so soundly once I made it home. I think I have found my Healer in you Dr. McGuire.......thank you profoundly.
I have been seeing Dr. McGuire for chronic misalignment for years. I have periods of time where I have 0 pain or related headaches. I contine for maintenance to keep the aches away. He is also a great person.
McGuire total wellness is the truth. I told him the problem, he listened and went right to correcting the problems I've been having with my shoulder. Great job I would recommend anybody that reads this review come check them out
The service was excellent and the customer service was great everyone was very nice and i feel such a relief just after one adjustment. I highly recommend
I seen Dr. Mcgire for the first time in August due to a spinal stenosis in my c5 and c6 discs, and it was causing my hands and fingers to be numb ALL THE TIME!! No relief, just tingling and pressure, that’s all I have been able to feel in my hands over<br>The past year. After he worked his magic the numbness immediately stopped
Dr. McGuire has been my chiropractor for a few years now. Initially, I was looking for a different way to help my fiancé with his pain and discomfort. I spoke with Dr. McGuire about a few concerns when I went to pay for his appointment, and he gave me peace of mind by offering a complimentary session. Since then, WE have been patients. Every member of my family either visits him annually or has a membership. When my son gets sports injuries, he's been my first choice. Dr. McGuire's energy and expertise have impressed my son so much that he now wants to work in the medical industry. Thank you for all that you do - mind, body, and spirit! It's a pleasure being a patient of yours!
This was my first chiropractic experience and I immediately felt the benefits of realignment. I also appreciated the spine figurine to help detail what is/well happen and the post-service drawing on what areas were targeted during my visit and what it connected to health wise.
