FAQ

Questions parents ask us

We know you have questions — especially when it comes to your child's health. Here are the most common ones we hear from families.

Absolutely. Pediatric chiropractic adjustments use incredibly gentle pressure — lighter than what you would use to test the ripeness of a tomato. Our Torque Release Technique is specifically designed to be safe for developing nervous systems.
Children can receive chiropractic care from birth. The birth process itself — whether vaginal or cesarean — can create stress on a newborn's spine and nervous system. Early assessment and gentle correction can support healthy development from day one.
We commonly see children with colic, reflux, latching difficulties, ear infections, sleep challenges, ADHD, sensory processing issues, growing pains, and developmental delays.
Yes. Prenatal chiropractic care is gentle, specialized care for expecting mothers. Our Webster-certified doctors are trained in techniques designed specifically for pregnancy.
Very short — often less than five minutes. The technique uses a small instrument and requires minimal force, so even very young children tolerate it easily. The rest of your visit time goes to assessment and parent questions.
Yes. Many parents bring their newborns in within the first days of life. Birth is often the first traumatic event a nervous system experiences, and early assessment can catch issues before they turn into colic, latching struggles, or sleep problems.
We do not claim to cure autism or sensory disorders, but we consistently see that many kids on the spectrum have nervous system dysregulation that responds well to gentle chiropractic care. For many families, it is a meaningful piece of a larger plan that includes therapy and sometimes medication.
Your child sits or lays comfortably, usually on your lap for babies. We use a small handheld instrument to deliver gentle pressure to specific spots on the spine. There is no twisting, no cracking, no popping. Most kids do not even notice when it happens.
It can be worth a look. Some fussiness has a physical side — tension from birth or feeding positions — and a gentle evaluation can tell you whether that is part of your baby's picture. Every baby is different, so we never promise a number of visits. If the fussiness looks like something else (reflux, milk intolerance), we will point you to your pediatrician.
Yes. We work with active kids every day. Some toddlers we adjust while they are playing, sitting on a parent's lap, or even crawling around the room. We find a way.
Some infant reflux has a physical component in the upper neck and diaphragm area, and gentle care may help your baby feed and settle more comfortably. Every baby responds differently. We work alongside your pediatrician, and if we don't think we're the right fit, we'll say so and refer you.
Yes. Latching issues can connect to tension in the neck or to oral-motor coordination. Our doctors look at the full picture, and we work closely with local lactation consultants when a case needs added support.
As early as you are comfortable. Webster Technique is gentle and safe throughout pregnancy. Many moms start in the first trimester, and it's never too late to begin — even in the third.
Coverage varies by carrier. We will verify your benefits before your first visit and explain what is covered. For services that are not, we offer affordable prenatal care plans and CareCredit financing.
