Persistent crying can be exhausting. Start with your baby's pediatrician to check for feeding difficulties, illness, or other causes.
Crying does not by itself establish a diagnosis of colic or a problem with the spine. A pediatric clinician can assess the pattern, feeding, growth, and any signs of illness.
We do not advertise chiropractic adjustments as a treatment for colic, reflux, or breastfeeding problems. A reassuring testimonial is not evidence that the same treatment will help another baby.
Contact your baby's pediatrician promptly for poor feeding, fewer wet diapers, unusual sleepiness, vomiting, or a marked change in crying. Fever in a young infant needs prompt medical assessment. Call emergency services for breathing difficulty, unresponsiveness, or another severe symptom.
If crying becomes overwhelming, put the baby in a safe sleep space and ask a trusted adult or healthcare professional for support. Never shake a baby.
It may help to note when the crying occurs, feeding amounts or duration, wet diapers, vomiting, and any changes in behavior.
If your baby seems to have difficulty turning their head or moving comfortably, ask the pediatrician about an assessment and appropriate referral. Do not assume that correcting a spinal alignment will solve feeding or crying problems.
We do not present adjustments as a proven treatment for colic. Persistent crying, feeding trouble, or reflux should be assessed by the pediatrician first.
No. Contact the pediatrician promptly, or emergency services for severe symptoms. An online appointment request is not an urgent medical triage service.
No. Birth alone is not a reason to recommend routine chiropractic treatment. Discuss any specific concern with your baby's pediatrician.
