If you’ve noticed more head pain as your pregnancy progresses, you’re not imagining it. Your body is changing fast. Hormones are shifting, posture is adjusting, and your center of gravity is moving almost daily. All of that can create extra tension through the neck, shoulders, and upper back, which can absolutely contribute to headaches and migraines.

There are natural ways to support your body through this. Prenatal chiropractic care focuses on helping balance the body and support the postural changes happening during pregnancy. When the body feels more supported, the nervous system can function with more ease and that tension often softens.

You don’t have to just push through headaches as part of pregnancy. Contact our office to learn more.

We often see parents bring their babies in because they can sense something feels off in their body.

It may show up as reflux, gas or constipation, trouble with tummy time, difficulty latching, or a baby who just feels tense and uncomfortable. Sometimes it’s not one big concern, but a pattern of little signs that their body is working harder than it should.

Babies experience tension too. Birth, feeding challenges, and early positioning can all impact the nervous system. When that tension unwinds, we often see their little bodies relax, move more freely, and struggle less with the things that once felt hard.

Parents know their babies best. If your intuition is telling you something needs support, it’s worth listening.

When tissues in the mouth are restricted, it can create tension through the neck, jaw, face, and even the spine. Over time, that tension can influence how a baby feeds, moves, swallows, and settles. It may also show up as head preference, reflux, gagging, colic, or difficulty nursing or bottle feeding.

Our role is to support the body as a whole. Gentle chiropractic care helps address tension patterns in the neck, spine, and cranium so the nervous system and musculoskeletal system can work with more ease. We also use specific techniques to support jaw, tongue, and lip movement when needed.

This care is safe, gentle, and always tailored to your baby’s size, age, and needs. The goal is not to force change, but to help the body release tension and function more freely.

If you’re navigating tongue or lip ties and wondering what support could look like, you’re not alone. There are options, and support can make a meaningful difference.

Milestones are more than moments you capture on your phone. They are clues about how your child’s nervous system is developing.

If you’ve noticed a milestone feels challenging or you’re unsure what’s typical, trust that awareness. Support early can make a meaningful difference, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

“Rooted Chiropractic has been such an integral part of my son’s life since he was 6 weeks old.”

This family found their way to us during those tender early newborn weeks. After a frenectomy, a tense little body, and parents doing everything they could to support their baby well, they were simply looking for help that felt thoughtful and supportive.

What began as care to help his body unwind became a steady presence throughout his first year. Showing up consistently as his nervous system adapted to each new phase. From early feeding challenges to working through crawling later on, care shifted as his needs changed.

“My son is now almost 1… and they have been an essential part of his first year.”

That is the heart of pediatric care. Not quick fixes or one time visits, but ongoing support for a growing nervous system so development can unfold with more ease.
