Infant Care
Infant care is a specialty that is gentle, loving and highly effective. All three of the doctors have received specialty training in infant care that is based on years of development. The birth process can often leave a baby with something out of alignment, which can impede their growth and well-being. Most parents worry about an infant receiving chiropractic care. We are here to tell you that with our combined experience of 60 years adjusting infants, we have seen hundreds of infants recover and thrive, sometimes within minutes or over a period of time. The reason infants would need care is to help them be 100 percent of their potentiality: Examples of the need for care include: a baby not latching on properly, throwing up profusely, crying incessantly, not resting well, continually tilting their head to one side and not to both sides, overly lethargic, not gaining weight as expected, and not reaching their developmental milestones on time.
Another symptom in infants is raising their head off of their parents’ shoulder. A parent may say, “Oh, my baby’s neck is so strong, he can lift his head off my shoulder,” however, this is actually a sign of a spinal spasm that needs chiropractic care. If it is not treated with proper chiropractic care, the infant is not able to cuddle, and the parents will often say, “My baby is just not cuddly,” but it is not that the infant does not want to cuddle, it is that the infant is not able to cuddle. Left untreated, this will mature into inner ear infections, and continue a downward spiral of health.
All infants need to receive a special infant examination to determine if there are any issues.
