Why do newborns get chiropractic adjustments?
Even today’s “natural” childbirth methods can affect an infant’s spine. Preliminary studies suggest that colic, unusual crying, poor appetite, ear infections or erratic sleeping habits can be signs of spinal distress. Relax. Newborn adjustments are gentle. As a rule, no more pressure than you’d use to test the ripeness of a tomato is involved!
Can I get chiropractic care if I’ve had back surgery?
Yes. The chiropractors of Houston Health & Wellness Center will avoid areas of your spine surgically modified. However, surgery often causes instability above or below the involved level. These “reactions” will be the focus of your chiropractic care.
Can patients with osteoporosis get chiropractic care?
Of course. Regardless of your age, size or condition, chiropractic care can be helpful. The specific needs of each patient are considered. If yours is not a chiropractic case, we’ll refer you to the appropriate specialist. |
