Newborn & Pediatric Chiropractic

Dr. Abby has received extensive post graduate training to work with newborns, infants and children. When done correctly, pediatric adjustments are extremely gentle and very different than the style of adjustments used on adults. When seeking chiropractic care for your newborns and children, it is important to choose a chiropractor that has additional training and experience in pediatric care.

Dr. Abby has dedicated a significant amount of time towards learning how to work with your child in the safest, most effective and fun way possible. Some of her recent pediatric training includes:

• International Chiropractic Pediatric Association 200 hour Certification Program
• The Ties that Bind: ABC's of tethered oral tissues
• Professional Lactation for Chiropractors - Tongue & Lip Ties
• Craniosacral Therapy for Infants: Identifying & correcting anatomical, digestive & breastfeeding pathologies in infants
• The Essentials of Chiropractic Care for Children
• Pediatric Technique: Thompson and Logan
• Developmental Neurobiology
• Pediatric Evaluation and Adjusting Protocols: Correcting Spinal and Cranial Subluxations
• Pediatric Spectrum Disorders
• Family Nutrition: Epigenetics and Parental Health and Nutrition for the Perinatal Period

The birthing process places a large amount of stress on the newborns spine which can result in dural tension and restricted joint motion or abnormal neurological function. Dural tension and spinal imbalances may contribute to many issues in babies and children including irritability, difficulty breastfeeding, ear infections, torticollis, constipation, colic and much more. We have experience with children of all ages from hours old through adolescence; however, Dr. Abby's passion and area of expertise is in birth through pre-crawling infants.  Our office is family friendly and we love when parents bring their kiddos in to be evaluated and adjusted!
