BIRTH is the BEST Time to Check Your Baby for Subluxation
Bringing a new baby into the world is one of life’s most incredible experiences, but it’s also a time when your little one’s body goes through quite the journey. The birthing process, no matter how smooth, can be physically demanding for both mother and baby. As your baby transitions into the world, their delicate spine and nervous system are experiencing pressure, twists, and turns. That’s why birth is a crucial time to check for subluxations—small misalignments in the spine that can interfere with the nervous system’s function.
Your Baby’s Nervous System: A Key to Healthy Development
From the very start, your baby’s nervous system plays a major role in their growth and development. It controls everything from digestion to sleep to immune function. When the nervous system is working properly, your baby has the best chance to thrive in all aspects of their early development.
However, even a gentle birth can put pressure on a baby’s spine, especially around the neck and head. Subluxations in this area can interfere with the ability of the nervous system to communicate effectively, which may impact your baby’s comfort, digestion, and even sleep. Checking for these misalignments right after birth allows us to support your baby’s natural development from day one.
