| Abstract/Notes | Objective: This case study describes the improvement of eczema, ear infections and balance in a 28-month-old boy under chiropractic care. Clinical Features: A 28-month-old Caucasian male was presented by his mother for chiropractic care with a chief complaint of eczema. He also had ear infections and balance problems. The child had a persistent rash since the time of his first birthday. The mother tried numerous emollients and lotions without success to help with the intense pruritus he experienced. Intervention and Outcomes: Subluxation-focused chiropractic adjustments were administered at 27 visits over 3 months. The child was assessed using static palpation, motion palpation, and paraspinal surface electromyography. Adjustments were delivered through a diversified chiropractic technique. At his 3-month re-assessment, his mother reported his eczema to be gone. The patient remains under regular chiropractic care and experienced one other eczematous outbreak over the following 3 years. His ear infections resolved and his balance improved. Conclusions: This study details relief of symptomatology associated with eczema, ear infections and balance in a child under chiropractic care. More research is needed to establish the role of chiropractic in the management of these children.
