There is no reason for your child (or you) to suffer one more day with colic. There is a solution for this emotionally draining and exasperating condition. The solution is simple, because the baby’s issue is actually physical. Make Ben’s testimony, your own.
There are many suggested remedies that are said to work to get rid of colic. Some include:
We are passionate about the health and well-being of children! That’s why we want to extend an invitation to you to refer families with children that have been diagnosed with colic and have been suffering with the disorder for over a month to us for treatment!
Colic is often defined as crying more than three hours a day, three days a week for more than three weeks in an otherwise well-fed, healthy baby between the ages of two weeks and six months.
The cause of colic is generally unknown. Less than 5% of infants who cry excessively turn out to have an underlying organic disease, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease, anal fissures, subdural hematomas or infantile migraine.
Colic is diagnosed after other potential causes of crying are excluded, typically via a history and physical exam.
Positioning of a baby in-utero, births with C-Section or vacuum extraction, or even uncomplicated natural births can be traumatic for babies and can cause subluxations. A subluxation is when one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae) move out of position and create pressure on, or irritate spinal nerves. Subluxations that occur at birth can irritate and compress the spinal cord and nerve structures in the neck or upper back resulting in interference with the brain’s ability to control associated organs and tissues. Soft tissues can swell and become inflamed resulting in chronic pain and discomfort. Correcting these misalignments with gentle chiropractic adjustments appears to eliminate colic.
Depending on how long the subluxation condition has gone untreated, other health issues may exist and have an affect on the baby’s health. Conditions such as constipation, lactose intolerance and cows’ milk allergy could have developed in the infant’s digestive system and can be wreaking havoc as well. Our overall health assessment looks for any issues that could affect the infant’s well being so that the issues can be properly diagnosed and treated in the appropriate manner.
Chiropractic is not a silver bullet. Things like proper nutrition, adequate sleep, regular physical exercise, positive mental attitude and well connected relationships are vital. But all of these positive habits can be wasted when the right messages aren’t getting through to the body.
