Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Newborns
How Dr. Samantha Helps Tiny Babies Feel Better!
Do you know what a chiropractor is? It’s kind of a big word, but it means someone who helps people feel better by making sure their body is lined up just right. And guess what? Dr. Samantha is a special kind of chiropractor — she helps newborn babies!
Many people are surprised to learn that newborns can receive chiropractic care. But, they are often the ones who need it most. Just like you, your new baby can gain significant benefits from chiropractic care, helping them enjoy the first months of life in comfort.
When babies are born, everything is brand new to them — new sights, new sounds, and even new feelings in their tiny bodies. Sometimes, all that wiggling and squishing during birth can make their little bodies feel uncomfortable. That’s where Dr. Samantha comes in!
The first trauma to life is the birthing process. It may be hard to wrap your head around the thought of your precious baby having something wrong with them-that is until symptoms persist. Due to the pressure placed on the baby’s head and neck during the labor process, it is beneficial for their development to get them checked by a pediatric chiropractor after birth.
The very top bone of the neck is often out of neutral position due to the birthing process. The very bottom part of the brain sits within this top bone. If the top bone is out of place, it causes a road block of miscommunication between baby’s brain and body. This can eventually lead to dysfunction if left untreated.
Some symptoms seen with nerve pressure in the baby’s brain are:
Colic
Fussiness
Constipation
Gassy
Difficulty sleeping
Difficulty nursing/eating
She gives tiny, gentle adjustments that help babies feel comfy and cozy again. It’s like a special kind of baby stretch or wiggle that helps their body work better. When babies feel better, they can sleep better, eat better, and smile more — and that makes their mamas super happy too!
Newborn adjustments provide help to relieve discomfort and align baby’s body so their systems can function properly. Dr. Samantha loves working with newborn babies and their mamas to help them feel better as they become adjusted to this new world, full of changes. And you know what the coolest part is? Dr. Samantha doesn’t make babies go to an office — she comes right to their house! That way, babies can stay snuggled up at home while she helps them feel their very best.
Dr. Samantha loves helping babies and their families feel happy and healthy. Isn’t that awesome?
