𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘀𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗜 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗮 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝗯𝘆? 🤱

The short answer? 𝗔𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆! Many moms come in within the first few days or weeks after delivery, while others wait a little longer. Every postpartum journey is different.

Pregnancy, labor, and delivery place a lot of stress on your body. Then comes the fourth trimester: feeding your baby, carrying an infant, rocking, lifting a car seat, and adjusting to a whole new routine.

During those first postpartum visits, we do more than focus on adjustments. We also work on breath work, body awareness, and simple strategies that support healing after delivery. Postpartum chiropractic care is tailored to your body and your recovery, with the goal of restoring healthy movement, reducing joint restrictions, and helping you feel more comfortable as you heal.

Mama, do not forget to take care of yourself. You deserve support just as much as your new little one. 💚

𝗪𝗼𝘄...𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘄. 💚

We are incredibly grateful for the support this community has shown us in our first few months! Because of you, our schedule is fuller than we ever imagined, and while we wish we could get everyone in immediately, we also want to make sure each practice member receives the time and attention they deserve.

Here's our current availability:

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸? 𝗔𝗻𝗱...𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝗯𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁?

If you're a brand-new parent, I promise...you're not the first person to ask me that. Those first few weeks can feel overwhelming. Just getting everyone dressed, packed up, and out the door can feel like a huge accomplishment. Then you finally arrive, and your baby decides it's the perfect time to eat, needs a diaper change, or just wants to be held.

That's okay.

Your appointment is centered around your baby, not the clock.

Need to breastfeed or give a bottle? Please do.
Need a diaper change? We've got you.
Need a few minutes to settle your little one? Take all the time you need.

When it comes to the adjustment itself, it's much gentler than most people expect. Infant chiropractic care doesn't involve twisting, popping, or cracking. I use light fingertip pressure, about the amount of pressure you'd use to check the ripeness of a tomato, while evaluating your baby's movement and areas of tension.

My goal is to create a calm, welcoming space where both you and your baby feel comfortable. Becoming a parent is hard enough; you shouldn't have to stress about whether your baby will "behave" during an appointment.

We’ll be closed Monday, September 7th for Labor Day! We hope you enjoy a safe, restful holiday with your loved ones.

We’ll be back in the office Tuesday, September 8th! 💚

𝗗𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗱𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗼! 💪

Dads have a funny habit of making sure everyone else gets taken care of first...and putting themselves last. Sound familiar?

Between long workdays, carrying kids, weekend projects, yard work, and everything else life throws your way, it's easy to ignore those nagging aches and pains. Here's your reminder: you don't have to wait until you're miserable to take care of your body.

Chiropractic care can help support healthy movement, improve function, and keep you feeling your best for the people who count on you most.

𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀...𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗜'𝗺 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗻𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗮𝗱𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀.

If that sounds like you, you're not alone. I hear this all the time!
The good news? You are always in control of your care.

Before any treatment, I perform a thorough examination to determine what's causing your symptoms and whether chiropractic care is appropriate for you. When neck adjustments are indicated and performed by a trained chiropractor, they're considered safe for most people. But if the thought of a traditional neck adjustment still makes you nervous, that's okay!

I have other options, including a drop table and the Activator® instrument, which provide gentle, low-force adjustments without the twisting or popping that many people associate with chiropractic care.

My goal isn't to make you fit one technique. It's to find the approach that helps you feel comfortable and confident while getting the care you need.

One question I hear this time of year is... "𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗜 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀?"

For many families, the answer is yes! Just like a back-to-school physical or dental checkup, a chiropractic visit can help your child start the school year feeling their best.

As kids head back into the classroom, they are also exposed to more germs. While chiropractic care is not a treatment for illness, a healthy nervous system supports overall body function, including the immune system. Many families include chiropractic care as part of their child's wellness routine to help keep them feeling their best throughout the school year.

Here is to a healthy, happy, and confident start to the school year!

When most parents think about their baby's palate, they think about teeth.

I think about feeding first.

A baby's palate develops from the very beginning, and how the tongue moves, how baby latches, and how the muscles of the jaw, neck, and cranium function can all play a role in that development. If a baby has tension or restricted movement through the neck, jaw, or cranial bones, they may have a harder time latching and feeding comfortably.

My goal is not to "reshape" a baby's palate. Instead, I evaluate the entire baby by looking at movement patterns, muscle tension, and areas of restriction, including how the bones of the cranium are moving. A balanced cranium can support healthy feeding patterns and may also help address concerns like plagiocephaly (flattening of the head).

Many families seek chiropractic care when they are dealing with:
▪️ Painful breastfeeding
▪️ Difficulty latching
▪️ Tongue or lip tie concerns (before or after a release)
▪️ Plagiocephaly (flattening of the head)
▪️ A baby who seems uncomfortable during feeds
▪️ Ongoing body tension

Chiropractic care is just one piece of the puzzle, and I often encourage parents to work alongside lactation consultants, pediatric dentists, and other providers to give their baby the best support possible.

"𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗜 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗱𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗜'𝗺 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗻𝘁? 𝗪𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗹𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗯𝘆?" 🤰💚

I get asked this question from time to time!
The truth is, you don't have to worry about squishing your baby. We use special pregnancy pillows that allow you to comfortably lie face down while keeping pressure off your growing belly. As your baby grows, the pillows grow with you using different-sized inserts, so you're supported through every stage of pregnancy.

Throughout pregnancy, I use the Webster Technique to assess how your pelvis is moving and identify areas of tension or imbalance in the muscles and ligaments that surround it. Webster isn't an adjustment itself; it's a specific chiropractic analysis that helps guide your care.

When the pelvis is balanced and moving well, it creates a better environment for both mom and baby. My goal is to help your body function the way it was designed to, so you can be more comfortable throughout pregnancy while supporting the best possible environment for labor and birth.

Every pregnancy is different, and every adjustment is too. Pregnancy is hard enough; you deserve to be comfortable.
