It is our deepest mission to give the best possible quality of care, starting from birth – yes, we said birth, and we are extremely passionate about this topic at Ignite Chiropractic!
Chiropractic Care For
Infants
An infant’s spinal alignment is likely compromised due to birth trauma as well as developmental stress both in and outside of the womb and should be evaluated as soon as possible.
Birth trauma is any residual effect that is placed on the mother or the baby during the birthing process. For example, C-section trauma includes unrecognized injury to the baby as they are being pulled by the neck during delivery. Operative vaginal deliveries refer to the application of either forceps or a vacuum device to assist the mother during the vaginal delivery of a fetus. Possible trauma risks to your baby from these methods that would indicate chiropractic need include increased risk of the baby’s shoulders becoming stuck in the birth canal and a chance of spinal subluxation causing nerve interference. Even the most natural, straightforward labor and deliveries usually result in subluxation(s).
We can find these subluxations with our CLA INSiGHT technology and correct them gently at the source, thus relieving a wide variety of symptoms.
