Y’all look at these amazing Doula women!
In Febuary, we had the privilege of hosting a Doula Circle at the office and had the best time connecting and reconnecting with these ladies! They have been such a rock for so many of our patients and we just want to thank them for all they do! 🤍

✨ Why a Doula should be part of your Birth Team ✨

Birth is one of the most pivotal life experiences you’ll ever have.
Women SHOULD have an empowered and positive birth experience. It truly takes a village and having the right support/birth team/village matters.

Dr. Jenna and I had two entirely different births (IYKYK😂) but the one thing that was a constant was having a doula on our birth team…and there is no way our birth experiences would’ve been the same without her. Shoutout 🫶🏻

A doula provides:
🤍 Emotional support during vulnerable moments
🤍 Physical comfort with positioning, breathing techniques, counter pressure, etc.
🤍 Advocacy & education so you feel informed and confident when your primitive brain kicks in
🤍 Continuity of care during those early postpartum moments

Research consistently shows that doula support is associated with:
✨ Shorter labors
✨ Lower intervention rates
✨ Increased satisfaction with the birth experience

But beyond stats, a doula reminds you of your strength when things feel hard and help you feel seen, heard, and supported — no matter how your birth unfolds. Laura provided that calmness and reassurance for us that we’ll never forget…

When mom’s nervous system feels safe and supported, baby’s does too.

We are so lucky to work with the best of the best Doulas and Midwives in Central Kentucky. Please reach out for recommendations on who may be a great addition to your birth team 🤍

Dads, where you at?!
Let’s be honest…Dads treat their bodies like they’re still 25… while doing 45-year-old activities… with zero stretching.

They’re out here:
Lifting heavy things…without proper form
Playing backyard football like they’re trying out for the NFL
Falling asleep on the couch with a few throw pillows and an extra baby blanket lying around
Carrying kids on their shoulders who are no longer “carry size”

And then saying…

“Just slept wrong….got a little kink in my neck…it’ll work itself out”

Meanwhile their spine looks like they actually do play for NFL…

At CKC, Dr. Tait helps dads:

✅ Stand up without making sound effects
✅ Turn their head while driving
✅ Sleep comfortably without becoming a pretzel
✅ Keep up with their kids
✅ Continue their elite grilling & golf careers
✅ And Win Fantasy Football Championships because Dr. Tait is going to 100% give you his opinion on who to start. 🏆

Because you shouldn’t be held together by ice packs and dad jokes.

We love caring for the whole family at CKC!

✨ Pregnant, glowing… but also really uncomfortable? Let’s talk.

Hey mom. Your body is doing something AMAZING—and you can (should) feel AMAZING. You don’t have to struggle through these trimesters with sciatica, p***c pain, low back soreness, or hip tension that often comes with pregnancy. Some providers want to brush it off and say it’s “normal pregnancy pain” but we have countless patients who experience little to no pain at 38-40 weeks pregnant, like Dr. Turner🙌

As ICPA-certified pediatric chiropractors, we provide safe, gentle, and specific prenatal care designed to support both YOU and your growing baby.

⸻

Why Prenatal Chiropractic Care is a Game-Changer:

🌸 Balances the pelvis
A well-aligned pelvis = more room for baby to grow and move into an ideal birth position.

💆‍♀️ Eases pregnancy discomfort
Moms experience relief from:
• Low back pain
• Sciatica
• Hip & pelvic tension
• Round ligament pain

🧠 Supports your nervous system
Your nervous system controls your entire body—including your uterus. When communication is clear, function is optimal.

🔄 Encourages optimal baby positioning
The Webster Technique is a specialized prenatal analysis that helps reduce sacral misalignment and surrounding soft tissue and ligaments—making it easier for baby to get into the best position for birth.

💤 Promotes Better Sleep & Mobility
When your body is aligned, you move better, rest better, and feel better.

👶 Contributes to Easier Birth Outcomes
While every birth is unique, studies and clinical experience suggest prenatal chiropractic care supports shorter labor times and reduces interventions. (We get to hear these amazing stories every week in our office!)

⸻

💛 Pregnancy doesn’t have to mean “just deal with it.”

You deserve to feel comfortable, supported, and empowered every step of the way, mom!

If you’re expecting (or planning to be), we’d love to be a part of your birth team. 🤍

We are deep into “sick season,” and families everywhere are feeling it…

It seems like for months now, no one has been able to fully shake the sniffles, coughs, tummy bugs, and fatigue.

Every single day, parents are bringing their kiddos in dealing with:

➡️ Ear infections
➡️ Congestion + sinus issues
➡️ Tummy complaints (constipation / diarrhea)
➡️ Sleep struggles + fatigue

And honestly… we LOVE seeing this wellness shift. 💛

More parents are recognizing the benefits of chiropractic care for their children’s overall wellness — not just when they’re sick, but proactively.

Because when the nervous system is functioning optimally, the body can adapt, regulate, and heal the way it was designed to.

That’s why consistent ✨Wellness Visits✨ can make such a powerful difference in your kiddo’s health — especially during the winter months.

⸻

Here’s what many of our families are doing right now to stay ahead of or fight illness:

✨ Chiropractic adjustments (bi-weekly)
✨ Nourishing, anti-inflammatory diet
✨ Daily supplements-Vitamin D/K, Fish Oil, Astragalus, Zinc, Beef Liver
✨ Elderberry syrup
✨ Garlic oil /fermented foods/fermented garlic
✨ Halotherapy (Salt Therapy): Check out Element Salt Room & Sauna with Focus on Fascia!
✨ Infrared sauna + Red Light Therapy

Let’s keep your family healthy, regulated, and thriving all winter long. ❄️💛

🚩Parents, stop being gaslit about “colic.”
One of the biggest red flags in picking a provider for your little one is this statement: “colic is normal and they’ll grow out of it.”

False. It’s a symptom of nervous system dysregulation and/or feeding/digestive issues, 9 times out of 10. It’s not normal for your baby to scream hours upon end, arching their back and turning bright red or even purple and it’s so sad that families are being gaslit about this.

How we treat “colic” at CKC as highly specialized pediatric chiropractors:

1.) Start with gentle, specific adjustments and bodywork to calm baby’s nervous system and ease tension in their little bodies
Each week, we see babies holding soooo much tension after birth. When we release this tension, their little bodies and nervous start to regulate and they calm✨

2.) Refer you to an IBCLC/SLP to assess for oral dysfunction/ties or faulty feeding mechanics.
One example: Oral dysfunction/poor latch=aerophagia (excessive swallowing of air)=ticked off/gassy/bloated/reflux baby

3.) Comanage with trusted OT’s, depending on our evaluation, to dive into your baby’s nervous system and potential vestibular issues and to add in supportive bodywork.

Not just, “babies cry and they’ll grow out of it.”
We find at root cause and we fix it. 🤍

Let’s talk about the FOURTH Trimester for a second…🤱🏻

Postpartum mamas need all the support they can get, both physically and mentally. 🫶🏻

After birth, female hormones are unregulated, causing mood swings and those “baby blues” you so often hear about.
•
•
Postnatal Chiropractic care focuses on healing and restoring function for these mothers, calming the nervous system which in turn, affects hormone regulation and all bodily functions.

Let’s not forget the “aches and pains” of a nursing mom or general soreness and tension from caring for a child or recovering post-birth (va**na or C-section).

Our providers are highly trained to address these common complaints that we see in postpartum and love being part of the journey of healing and recovery. 🤍

💭Did You Know:

➡️It is both SAFE and encouraged to get adjusted post C-section. We modify adjustments to make you comfortable
➡️You can come get adjusted the moment (YES, same day) you leave the hospital
➡️Our office is “kid-friendly” so bring your toddler along to play while you get adjusted!

Breastmilk and Power Outages🥶
Thanks to Kentucky Breastfeeding Center for recommending this post!

⚡️ POWER OUTAGE + BREASTMILK?
Here’s what to do to keep baby and breastmilk safe.

Power went out and you have breastmilk in the fridge/freezer...I know that panic feeling so well, especially when your milk represents HOURS of work and a food source for your baby.

✅ FIRST: Keep fridge/freezer doors CLOSED as much as possible.

MILK IN THE FRIDGE

🧊 If fridge is ≥ 40°F / 4°C for 4+ hours: save for a milk bath.
✅ If still cold (≤ 40°F / 4°C): use within typical timeframe.

MILK IN THE FREEZER

❄️ If milk has ice crystals: SAFE TO REFREEZE
❄️ If milk is fully thawed but still cold: use within 24 hours (do not refreeze- some parent will opt to refreeze based on their own comfort).
🚫 If milk is warm or you’re unsure: save it for a milk bath.

✨ Pro Tip: Move freezer milk to a cooler with ice packs if outage lasts longer than expected.
✨ Pro tip: keep a cheap fridge thermometer inside your fridge/freezer, it makes decisions SO much easier during outages.
