It all starts earlier than you think.

Amniotic fluid loves to absorb near-infrared light. A 2010 study on the optical properties of human amniotic fluid found something remarkable: Amniotic fluid selectively transmits red and near-infrared light, with peak transmission at 850nm—the exact wavelength abundant in morning and evening sunlight. These are the same wavelengths that power mitochondrial energy production and cellular development.

But here’s the critical part: As pregnancy progresses, light transmission drops. Amniotic fluid becomes more optically dense in later gestation, meaning less light passes through. Early and mid-pregnancy sun exposure matters most. – Lindsey Mathews Cantu, DC

In postpartum, your body heals through signals, and one of the most powerful (and overlooked) signals in pregnancy and postpartum is natural light. Morning and evening sunlight help regulate hormones, support tissue repair, stabilize mood, and even entrain your baby’s developing circadian rhythm before and after birth.

Another sought out reason for care is the resolution of a particular symptom or condition. Parents seek care for conditions such as colic, ear infections, asthma, allergies and headaches (to name a few) because they have heard from other parents that chiropractic care can help.

It is important to understand that the Doctor of Chiropractic does not treat conditions or diseases. The expertise of the chiropractor is in checking the child’s spine for misalignments that impair nervous system function therefore affecting overall body function. The bones of the spine, the vertebrae, house and protect the spinal cord. The spinal cord is an extension of the brain and carries information from the brain to the body parts and back to the brain again. Subluxations interfere with the nerves’ ability to transmit this vital information.

By the second trimester, babies begin to process sound, light, and even emotion. The hormonal and emotional environment of the womb becomes their first “world.” When mothers feel calm and connected, the baby receives those cues of safety through hormonal signals, heart rate rhythms, and even the tone of her voice. These experiences shape the baby’s developing nervous system and emotional blueprint.

There are several ways you can begin building your song library to use with your children. In our home, songs may appear in response to what is happening around us. With the onset of rain, a gentle ‘Pitter patter, pitter patter, listen to the rain…’ When it is time to clean up, ‘I’ve been working on the railroad…’ During nail clipping, ‘5..4..3..2..1.. Blast off another rocket ship run.’ If encouragement is needed to take off a shirt, an enthusiastic ‘… hands up baby hands up give me your heart…’ might do the trick.” — Alisha DiMasi, MS, OTR/L

Singing isn’t just play—it helps stimulate the vagus nerve, support emotional regulation, strengthen connection and bonding, and gently shift mood and behavior through rhythm, voice, and presence.

Breastfeeding isn’t just a personal choice—it’s one of the most powerful public health interventions we have. Research shows it significantly reduces rates of infant infections, chronic disease, childhood cancers, and maternal illnesses, while saving families and healthcare systems billions each year. From lower medical costs in infancy to long-term protection for mothers against cancer, diabetes, and osteoporosis, the benefits ripple across generations.

“Everything becomes a little more rigid. A little more reactive. Healing, growth, development, learning, and even compassion take a backseat to survival.

This is what we call the sympathetic alarm state—when the body is running a stress response that never fully turns off. It might not look like panic. It might not even feel anxious. But it shows up in all sorts of ways:

• Sensory sensitivities
• Emotional reactivity
• Digestive issues
• Sleep disruptions
• Allergies, skin flare-ups, or immune imbalances
• Developmental delays or ‘plateaus’
• The sense that your child is smart and capable but still struggling to get traction

These signs are often misunderstood as separate conditions— or chalked up to personality. But they’re often the body’s way of saying: ‘I don’t feel safe enough to change right now.’” – Satya Sardonicus, DC, CACCP

Many childhood symptoms we treat as separate problems are actually expressions of a nervous system stuck in protection, held together by deep fascial patterns. When we stop chasing symptoms and instead create somatic safety—addressing fascia, structure, and nervous system regulation together—the body can finally soften, integrate, and heal as a whole.

Tomorrow is the day!!! She’s back 1/13. So excited to have Dr Tara back with us. Thank you for everyone’s patience while she was out enjoying all those baby snuggles, adjusting to a new routine and recovering.

We know there has been a wait to get in for new pregnancy clients. Having our third WEBSTER TECHNIQUE CERTIFIED provider back in the office will help this.
