Should your baby see a chiropractor?


Chiropractic care can be very helpful for babies, toddlers, and children of all ages. 

A baby’s spine can become misaligned at birth. Even the most natural birth can be traumatic to a baby’s spine. As babies begin to grow and develop, spinal misalignments (or subluxations) can occur from being held or placed in the same position repeatedly, from being dropped or falling off of a bed or changing table, or from falling when learning to crawl and walk. When a segment of the spine is misaligned, the nerves coming from that area aren’t able to function the way they normally would.  

Since our nervous system helps to control all aspects of our body’s function, your baby may present with a variety of symptoms because of a spinal misalignment. These symptoms can range from ear infections, colic, constipation, sinus infections, reflux, fussiness, lowered immune system, difficulty crawling, and many other conditions. 

As a chiropractor, my goal is not to treat a specific illness, but rather to correct spinal misalignments and allow the nervous system to function at its best. 

Chiropractic care for babies is very gentle and can be very helpful to help keep your baby happier and healthier!
