Mothers, Babies, Toddlers & Children All Benefit From Chiropractic Care
Pregnancy Chiropractic Care
From preconception through postpartum recovery, our doctors have cared for hundreds of expecting moms with great success. While we would be happy to care for you at any stage of your pregnancy, the earlier you start care with us, the better your pregnancy and delivery can be.
A pregnant woman’s body undergoes so much change in such a short amount of time. Our prenatal specialist doctors are certified in the Webster technique, which is used to analyze the alignment and mobility of your low back and pelvis to discern where there is any unnecessary tension. A misaligned pelvis can cause pain, poor baby positioning, and can result in challenges during the birthing process.
With specific adjustment methods, we ensure your comfort, peace of mind and safety for both mom and baby, while still achieving the results of our standard manual adjustments. We also provide pregnancy pillows to allow you to lay on your belly safely and comfortably.
Continuing chiropractic adjustments throughout your postpartum journey ensures that your nervous system functions optimally, resulting in a faster recovery. With all the new nursing, baby-holding, and car-seat-carrying postures, chiropractic care (and the whole DC Wellness team) can support you through it all!

Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Stress and misalignment of the spine can have serious impacts on your child’s overall health, behavior, and development. Here at DC Wellness, our doctors have spent many years training through the ICPA, Pediatric Experience, and Epic Pediatrics. We offer gentle and non-invasive techniques that work to correct underlying issues before they become hard-wired during development.
Our doctors adjust children of all ages, from newborns coming directly from the hospital to teenagers heading off to college soon. They use age-specific adjustment techniques.
Our goal with pediatric chiropractic care is always to alleviate symptoms such as colic, constipation/gas, recurring ear infections, lingering coughs or sniffles, and even mental/behavioral issues. Even more so, we strive to proactively maintain the optimal functionality of your child’s body as they continue to grow and develop.
Infants:
our doctors use a gentle touch on specific pressure points. (The amount of pressure used is similar to how you would check the ripeness of an avocado.)
Toddlers:
a “toggle board” is utilized by the doctors for this age. This device allows the doctors to provide a gentle adjustment that still results in the same amount of input into their nervous system!
Older Children:
As your child continues to grow and develop, the doctors will progress to manual adjustments, similar to what is used on mom or dad.
