Babies can’t say, “Mom, my neck is stuck,” or “Dad, my tummy hurts.” They show it with crying, arching and sleepless nights. If you're searching an “infant colic chiropractor” or “baby reflux help,” you’re in the right place. Our certified pediatric chiropractor uses feather‑light, fingertip pressure to calm the nervous system, ease tension from birth and support healthy development – all while baby often snoozes on the table.
What Concerns We Help
Top Concerns & How Our Care Helps
From birth, your baby’s nervous system is working hard to adapt to life outside the womb. But birth isn’t always easy—and for many infants, especially those born via cesarean, forceps, vacuum extraction, or induction, the process can place significant stress on their delicate nervous systems. Even "natural" births can result in physical strain on a baby’s neck, spine, and cranial bones. These stressors may not always be visible, but they can deeply impact how your baby sleeps, feeds, digests, and bonds with you.
At Flack Family Chiropractic, we specialize in gentle, neurologically-focused care that helps babies adapt, heal, and thrive. Many of the families who come to us are navigating challenges like colic, reflux, gassiness, and constipation. Others are dealing with difficulty latching or nursing on one side, excessive spitting up, or tongue and lip ties that affect feeding and development. Parents also bring their babies in for concerns like torticollis (head tilt), plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome), poor sleep, or overly rigid or floppy muscle tone. Some babies seem "stuck" in a fight-or-flight state—startling easily, crying constantly, or struggling to be soothed.
These signs can indicate that your baby’s nervous system is overwhelmed and having trouble regulating itself. Our chiropractic care gently restores balance, allowing your baby’s body to process sensory input more calmly, regulate digestion more easily, and sleep more peacefully. Using safe, specific techniques, Dr. Beth works to reduce interference in your baby’s nervous system so they can grow, connect, and develop as they were designed to.
We’re here to support you with answers, hope, and a care plan that’s as unique as your little one.
Why Infant Chiropractic Is Different
-
Pressure no heavier than testing a ripe avocado – totally safe for newborn spines.
-
Cranial & sacral work soothes nervous‑system tension from long labors or C‑sections.
-
ICPA‑informed techniques focus on neurologic function first, not just “bones.” Studies and parent surveys affirm both the safety and effectiveness of pediatric chiropractic when performed by trained doctors.
