My baby has been diagnosed with acid reflux.  Can chiropractic care help him? At Watkins Family Chiropractic, we hear this question quite often and the answer is yes. Acid reflux and many other digestive conditions can be helped with spinal adjustments by a chiropractor.

It is believed that the process of being carried in the womb and/or the process of birth can cause imbalances in the nervous system. Chiropractic adjustments on infants are very gentle adjustments on certain parts of the spine typically using a single fingertip or small tool. These gentle movements correct the positioning of the vertebrae which then allows the nerve pathways to function efficiently. These treatments have been very successful with many infants.
