Healthier Infants & Babies

You do everything to ensure your baby’s health during pregnancy including eating healthy foods; avoiding cigarettes and alcohol and learning all you can about your new baby.

After the baby arrives, you do everything you can to make sure your baby is healthy. Have you had their spine checked? A chiropractic spinal checkup can ensure a healthier baby, one with higher resistance to disease and a healthier nervous system.

When Does A Baby Need a Spinal Checkup? According to chiropractic orthopedist, Dr. Lynne Spillinger, D.C., D.A.B.C.O., there are six times in a baby’s first year of life when spinal examinations are especially important:

  1. After the birth process
  2. When the baby starts to hold his/her head up
  3. When the baby sits up
  4. When the baby starts to crawl
  5. When the baby starts to stand
  6. When the baby starts to walk

Please note that craniosacral work can benefit your child as well with colic and sleep disturbances.
