Are you struggling with a colicky baby in Pasadena? While adults and older children can voice their pain, babies can only cry to express their discomfort. Many parents find themselves puzzled, unable to soothe their crying baby despite trying everything. Have you thought about visiting a chiropractor in Pasadena?
Infant colic was once believed to be related to indigestion. Today, it is described as unexplained and uncontrollable crying in babies aged 0 to 3 months, lasting more than three hours a day, three days a week, for three weeks or more, usually occurring in the late afternoon or evening. For many parents, this definition doesn't provide the actionable solutions they seek from healthcare professionals.
A study published in the German medical journal "Manual Medicine" examined the spines of 1,258 newborns within five days of birth. Out of this group, 211 suffered from conditions like vomiting, hyperactivity, or sleeplessness. Remarkably, spinal abnormalities were found in 95% of these cases. This suggests that the birth process, including cesarean deliveries and the use of tools like clamps or vacuums, can impact the baby’s spine and neck.
Chiropractors in Pasadena can help ease your baby’s discomfort. Gentle chiropractic adjustments can correct spinal subluxations, which may interfere with your baby’s natural functions and cause discomfort. This can potentially improve common issues such as feeding difficulties and excessive crying and may also reduce the risk of allergies, ADD/ADHD, colds, flu, ear infections, asthma, and developmental delays.
