Comprehensive Chiropractic Services for Families
Explore our range of specialized services designed to support the health of moms, babies, and children.
Prenatal Chiropractic Care
We specialize in the Webster Technique, a core part of our prenatal care that restores proper balance to the mother’s pelvis. This specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment achieves two main goals:
-
Promotes Maternal Comfort: Gently corrects joint dysfunction and relieves ligament tension, significantly reducing common complaints like hip and round ligament pain.
-
Supports Fetal Positioning: Ensures the baby has maximum space for movement, supporting optimal fetal positioning in the late stages of pregnancy and preparing the body for an easier birth process.
Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Children are always growing. Gentle chiropractic care for kids keeps their nervous system and spine aligned for optimal development.
Our specialized care addresses:
-
Newborns: Check-ups for structural stress from birth, helping with infant colic and sleep disturbances.
-
Toddlers & Youth: Correcting misalignments from tumbles and easing growing pains.
-
Teenagers: Providing postural assessment for neck strain from heavy bags or technology use.
