​​4 Signs Your Little One Needs a

​Chiropractic Adjustment

There are myriad reasons that your child may need help from a chiropractor, not the least is that it’s part of a regimen for long-term health. Although chiropractic shouldn’t be limited to only those situations in which symptoms are present, here are a few of the more common reasons chiropractic should be strongly considered for your little one.
  • Use of forceps in delivery - Sometimes, deliveries are a bit wild. If forceps were used in the delivery process, it’s likely that, at some point, the spine was subjected to different levels of torque. That easily could have resulted in improper spinal movement and restrictions that impact function, regardless of whether you feel symptoms exist.
  • Colic - Persistent crying that seems to have no cause and does not let up, and interrupted sleep, is common. The nervous system can be overloaded from stimulation based on spinal joints that are stuck or not moving properly.
  • Difficulty breastfeeding - When newborns have trouble latching during breastfeeding, it can often result from discomfort or pain from the feeding position or inability to get into proper position because of improperly moving joints.
  • Head tilting/limited range of motion - Having a little one who only turns one way, whose head tilts off to one side or the other, or who turns more to one side than the other, are signs that there may be spinal joint restriction.​
Your chiropractor takes a gentler approach to adjustments for babies than for adults.  Instead adjustments for babies many times will go unnoticed by the baby.  
The pressure used on a baby is equivalent to the pressure one uses to check a tomato for ripeness.
