Prenatal/ Postnatal Chiropractic
At Rooted Family Chiropractic we understand the importance of preparing and maintaining a woman’s body for the dramatic changes of pregnancy. She will undergo changes not only structurally but chemically (hormones) and mentally. Chiropractic can help make things more comfortable and enjoyable throughout pregnancy by adjusting the body to optimize the nervous system of the mother and the baby. Chiropractic is a safe alternative to treating common pregnancy symptoms which include:
-
Low back pain
-
Nausea
-
Acid reflux
-
Ligament pain
-
Headaches
-
Heartburn
-
Constipation
-
Discomfort as baby grows
Women that undergo chiropractic care throughout their pregnancy have been found to have shorter and less painful labors and deliveries. Chiropractic lowers the chance of induction and c-sections by creating optimal pelvic alignment and function of the nervous system.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Often the first subluxation (malposition of the bone that causes the musculoskeletal and nervous system to function incorrectly) occurs at birth. Even a healthy normal birth can create enough stress on the skeleton to create subluxations.
As babies develop into toddlers they undergo countless falls and illnesses that decrease the ability of the body to function optimally. Common reasons children undergo chiropractic care include:
-
Difficult birth/ birth with intervention
-
Difficulty nursing
-
Ear infections
-
Colic/ acid reflux
-
Constipation
-
Frequent colds/ sickness
-
Scoliosis
-
Neck, back, or extremity pain
-
Headaches
-
Frequent falls
-
Asthma, seasonal allergies
-
Maximize brain and nervous system
-
Sports injuries
-

Growing pains
Chiropractic care can be used effectively to prevent injury and illness in all ages by maximizing the function of the nervous system. Many families take their children to get routine spinal checkups just like they do routine dental and eye exams. Children and families that undergo routine chiropractic care experience more energy, improved health and rarely require drugs/ medications. It’s never too early for chiropractic!
