“Is chiropractic care safe for my baby?”
We get it, the thought of bringing your tiny newborn to a chiropractor can feel overwhelming. Your mama instincts are already on high alert, and the last thing you want is something that feels unsafe or scary.
So here’s the truth: pediatric chiropractic care uses no more pressure than you’d use to check a ripe avocado 🥑. There’s no “cracking”, no popping, no forceful movements. Just gentle, specific touch guided completely by your baby’s cues.
Your baby is never forced into a position. We follow their lead and move the way that’s best for their body.
What we assess during your baby’s first visit:
✨ Range of motion & movement patterns
✨ Areas of tension
✨ Primitive reflexes
✨ Developmental milestones
✨ Cranial shape and symmetry
✨ Feeding and latching mechanics
An adjustment actually feels incredibly subtle, often just a light fingertip contact or gentle sustained pressure. Many babies stay asleep, nurse during care, or relax immediately afterward. And parents are often surprised by how uneventful (in the best way) it feels.
We’re not here to “fix” your baby. We’re here to reduce tension their body is holding onto, support healthy nervous system communication, and help their body do what it already knows how to do: grow, adapt, and thrive.
