Care for the Whole Family — From the Littlest to the Grownups
Chiropractic care isn't just for aching backs. At Gateway Chiropractic in St. Louis, MO, we care for the whole family with a gentle, personal approach. When you come in, you're not a chart — you're a neighbor, and so are your kids.
Gentle, Tailored Care for Every Age
The way we care for an active kid, a busy parent, and a grandparent isn't the same — and it shouldn't be. Our technique is always matched to the person in front of us: gentle, precise, and never more force than needed. For families, that means one office that understands everyone's different needs and treats each of you as an individual. It's the same neighbor-first approach behind everything we do.
Dr. Sas has also completed advanced post-graduate training in pediatric care, including a Certificate in Pediatric Neurology through The Slak Institute — so your child's care is grounded in specialized training, not guesswork.
What Brings Kids In
Kids come to us for more than you might expect. Common reasons families bring their children in include neck pain, growing pains, headaches, bed-wetting, focus and attention challenges (ADHD), functional issues, and neurologic or developmental delays.
We start every child the way we start every patient — a careful history and exam, an honest conversation about whether chiropractic care is a fit, and a plan built around your child, never a one-size-fits-all promise.
A Welcoming Place to Bring Your Family
We've built the kind of office families actually enjoy coming to — warm, honest, and easy. Self-check-in, a live text line to the front desk, autopay, and pre-scheduling keep visits quick, because we know family schedules don't leave much room to spare.
And the little things matter. We keep snacks on hand for the kiddos — juice boxes, cheese and crackers — plus a brand-new scavenger hunt to keep them busy and smiling while they're here. Beats a sucker, right? It's a small thing, but it's the difference between “we have to go to the chiropractor” and “we get to.”
