If your newborn:
• holds their head up early
• arches their back
• feels stiff instead of snuggly
• prefers to turn their head only one way
• has nursing or latch difficulties

…and everyone keeps saying how “strong” they are, I want you to pause for a second.

Healthy newborn development looks soft, relaxed, and able to rest easily in your arms. Early tension can be a sign the nervous system is stuck in survival mode after birth.

Gentle, specific chiropractic care helps support a baby’s nervous system and release tension, allowing for easier movement, feeding, and settling , so developmental milestones can unfold at the right time and in the right order.

💛 If this sounds familiar and you’d like more info, message me. Our Denton, TX office is a calm, family-friendly space where we support newborns and their nervous systems from the very beginning.

PSA for all my moms juggling all the things:
Your FSA/HSA benefits expire soon… use it or lose it!

If you’ve still got money sitting in your account, chiropractic care is an approved (and super helpful) way to use it before the year ends.

Now is the time.
Those funds don’t roll over — once January hits, they’re gone.

Send me a message and we’ll get you on the schedule. 🤍

It’s almost Thanksgiving! A quick heads-up: I’ll be in the office Monday only that week.
My sister and her family will be here, and I haven’t seen her in person in four years. As adults, it’s wild how the days feel long but the years fly by, so we’ll be busy soaking up every minute of togetherness.

Thank you for giving me the gift of serving your families while still being present with my own. It truly is the best job in the world.
Please plan ahead for your visits, and enjoy this season with the people you love. 🧡

You know that moment when you just know another ear infection is coming?
The tugging… the crying at night… the “Mom, it hurts.”
And your heart just sinks.

Because you’ve done everything:
✔ antibiotics
✔ garlic oil
✔ warm compresses
✔ probiotics
✔ the humidifier
✔ “Wait and see” (aka stress city)

But if the ear can’t drain… the cycle repeats.

Here’s where chiropractic care fits in:
A gentle pediatric adjustment (no neck twisting, no cracking) helps the Eustachian tube actually drain by activating the trigeminal nerve and the TVP muscle that opens the tube.

When the ear drains → the fluid doesn’t sit → and infection has a harder time taking hold.
Simple. Body-based. Root-cause.

There’s even a study where 80% of kids didn’t have another infection within 6 months after starting chiropractic care (with occasional wellness visits).
We see this in our office all the time.
Moms tell us: “They sleep better. They’re happier. Their little body finally got a break.”

If your child is stuck in the ear infection loop…
I see you. I get it.
And I’d love to help you understand what’s going on in their nervous system.

✨ Send me a message if you want to chat.
Or just comment EAR and I’ll reach out privately.
