Dr. Troy here, Zenaptic Chiropractic.
I want to talk about colic. A lot of parents, with newborns especially, will have colic like symptoms.
They will have digestive complaints, crying, fussy, keep mom and dad up for hours and hours. I’ve seen many babies who only get 2-3 hours of sleep at night.
Especially after the delivery process, the spinal bones can misalign due to the delivery process. Abraham Towbin, who is a medical researcher, says eighty percent of children born have misalignment in the upper neck due to the birth process which irritates the vagus nerve.
If you look at the chart, the vagus nerve comes right off the top of the upper cervical, innervates the digestive system. The digestive system doesn’t function properly when there is pressure on that vagus nerve, so it can create a colic like situation.
Chiropractic care is very safe, very effective, very gentle for newborns or even toddlers to help reduce colic.
There is research now that shows a ninety-three percent improvement in after just two weeks of chiropractic care. Specific correction is gentle. Sometimes we’ll use an instrument that is very light, it is called an activator, it puts a little motion into the vertebra to unlock the nerves so the nerve system can relax and the baby can calm down.
I’ve seen many cases where one, two,or three adjustments clear up the colic. Parents are happy, they can sleep. So if you have a newborn that is suffering from colic why not give chiropractic a try?
