Pediatric Chiropractic Mill Creek Geneva Helps Newborns

By Arthur Albao


To most people, taking a baby to see a chiropractor may seem like a bad idea given the delicate nature of their tiny bodies. It could even be uncomfortable watching their little spines being manipulated. The doctors practicing pediatric chiropractic Mill Creek Geneva are specially skilled at attending fragile infant bones and joints, and may opt to utilize special instruments to gently adjust tender vertebrae.

During the birthing process, a baby has about 150lbs of pressure upon its neck. Passing through the birth canal is filled with twisting and contorting that can easily result in vertebral misalignment and irritation of neck and skull nerves. Subluxation can decrease the amount of blood flowing to the body's organs and tissues. Problems may not become evident until after a visit with a chiropractor, as the natural flexibility of an infants spine does not result in the same pain adults experience.

The American Chiropractors' Association recommends their techniques formulated for newborns to help with lowering the likelihood of allergies or asthma, failure to thrive, nursing issues, immunity disorders, constipation, and chronic ear infections. Infants can even find it easier to recover the trauma experienced during birth.

Additionally, newborn subluxations can cause attention problems, colic and learning issues. In extreme cases, it has been suggested as a link to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome as a result of a pinched nerve in the upper neck. Subluxations can result from a bad position while in utero or the use of tools to aid in the birthing process, whether natural or C-section.

This type of care for newborns includes a thorough examination of the spinal vertebrae, which is not typically performed by Western pediatricians. An infant can greatly benefit from being examined by a chiropractor within two weeks of their delivery. The subluxations responsible for long term issues may not be as noticeable as the bones begin to harden, and can pose difficulties in discovery the cause of certain problems in the future.

As they grow, back pain, chronic sore throats, and scoliosis may affect children who were not checked.
