Chronic Ear Infections After Swimming? The Missing Link Most Parents Miss
Does your child get ear infections every summer after swimming? 😩 You’ve tried antibiotics, ear drops, maybe even tubes — but the infections keep coming back. This video explains what most parents miss: how poor drainage and nervous system stress are often at the root of chronic ear infections. 🧠👂 Dr. Drake explains how chiropractic care supports better drainage, stronger immunity, and fewer infections — naturally.
Hey everyone! Dr. Drake here from Innate Family Chiropractic. Let’s talk about a super common summer frustration: ear infections.Specifically, chronic ear infections in kids after swimming — and how chiropractic care can help support natural drainage and immune function.
You may think it's just water in the ear, but most recurring infections aren’t just about moisture. The real problem often comes from fluid that isn’t draining properly through the eustachian tube, located behind the eardrum.
This tube should open and close to drain fluid into the throat — but if it doesn’t work right, that fluid just sits there, breeding bacteria and inflammation.The eustachian tube doesn’t work on its own. It’s controlled by muscles and nerves — and many of those nerves come from the upper neck and brainstem area. When there’s subluxation or tension in this area, communication breaks down.
That’s why kids with nervous system stress often deal with chronic drainage issues, inflammation, and reduced immune response — a perfect storm for repeat infections .At Innate, we don’t just guess. We use INSiGHT scans to see how your child’s nervous system is functioning. We can pinpoint where stress is stuck and where communication might be breaking down.
Through safe, gentle adjustments, we restore that communication. The body starts regulating drainage again. Immune function improves. And your child gets to enjoy a summer free from ear pain and endless doctor visits.
If this sounds like your child’s pattern, let’s break the cycle. We’d love to help. Give us a call to get started with a Neurological Scan today.
