Tummy time helps Nannie’s achieve spinal balance after birth. A lot of times, especially when close to birth, baby is stuck in one position, giving them a c curve. This can cause tension in your little babies body, which is why we love to help address the imbalances even at 6 days old.

A lot of the times when treating babies, Dr. Heather is treating constraints from in utero. This sweet 3 month old boy was having a difficult time with lifting his head, thoracic extension, and nursing/sucking. Chiropractic for babies can help with these issues.

When working a desk job, our bodies can start to slump forward, and our head and lean forward when looking at a screen. This posture can lead to a low of lower back and neck pain.

If you work a desk job, try doing these exercises a few times throughout your day. Give it a try and tell us what you think!

✨ What you’re seeing here is a powerful moment of release ✨

In this video, Dr. Heather Hunt is using craniosacral therapy (CST) on a 6-day-old baby — a gentle, light-touch technique that supports the nervous system and helps the body unwind from tension patterns that can develop during birth and in utero.

You’ll notice two things happening:

Red Release: That temporary redness on the baby’s skin is a sign of increased blood and lymph flow — the body’s way of saying, “I’m opening up and releasing.” It’s completely normal and often indicates that tissues are relaxing and circulation is improving.

Therapeutic Pulse: Practitioners can feel subtle rhythmic motions — a “pulse” that reflects the body’s self-corrective response. When the pulse shifts or deepens, it shows that the baby’s system is finding balance and moving into a calmer, more regulated state- the parasympathetic

These gentle moments can support feeding, sleep, digestion, and overall nervous system health — helping babies feel more at ease in their little bodies.
