Birth can be traumatic.
​
The modern birth process may be one of the most traumatic events that a person will endure in their life.
With interventions including c-section, forceps and vacuum extraction becoming more prevalent during labor and delivery, there is potential for added stress on the child’s spine and nervous system. Even if the birth is not assisted, the amount of force that is placed on a newborn as they exit the birth canal and are helped out by the doctor often cause their first subluxations. This is why it is critical that babies are checked as soon as possible after birth.
A fully functioning nervous system is crucial to a life full of health and vitality.

Intro: Pediatric Chiropractic care.
​
Have you noticed any of these in your baby?
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
The nervous system, consisting of the brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of the body, controls and regulates the entire body. Many infantile health problems are merely the result of nervous system interference, usually along the spine.
​
Chiropractors are the only ones trained to detect and remove these interferences.
​
Analyzing the function of the nervous system and locating areas of interference is simple and painless.
Removing the interference is also usually very quick and gentle. Dr. Allen has fine-tuned his technique to be very specific and gentle, perfect for those precious, most vulnerable little bodies.
Imagine you're testing a tomato for ripeness with your pinky-- that's about how much pressure it takes to get your newborn's nervous system functioning well.
NO TWISTING, NO POPPING.
Only soft, gentle hands for your precious little one.

Hey, baby.
