Battling constant headaches?
You’re not alone — many of us link headaches to stress, posture, screen time … or tension in the neck. 🧍‍♀️

✅ Chiropractic care offers NATURAL support, especially for migraines and cervicogenic headaches.
Here’s what research highlights:
• Spinal adjustments + manual therapies can help reduce frequency and intensity of migraines and cervicogenic headaches.
• Patients receiving chiropractic care were less likely to overuse headache meds.
• In everyday practice, chiropractors often combine adjustments with soft-tissue therapy, neck exercises, and lifestyle advice.

If you deal with regular headaches, it may be worth exploring a consultation with a chiropractor (especially one experienced with headache management).

Research has consistently shown that tummy time is critical for a baby’s physical and cognitive development.

🧩 According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), tummy time helps to strengthen the muscles in a baby’s neck, shoulders, and back, which are essential for reaching developmental milestones like rolling over, sitting up, and crawling. Studies have also highlighted that babies who spend more time on their tummy tend to develop better motor skills and coordination.

🧩 Additionally, research published in the Journal of Pediatric Physical Therapy suggests that tummy time can help prevent positional plagiocephaly, or flat head syndrome, by reducing pressure on the back of the head.

🧩 Tummy time promotes sensory development, encouraging babies to explore their environment in a way that supports brain development. With early and consistent tummy time, babies develop essential skills that lay the foundation for later movement and cognitive abilities, making it a key part of healthy early childhood development.
