Crawling: A Big Deal for Little Brains 🧠🐾

Crawling isn’t just a milestone — it’s a brain-building workout for babies.
As they move, they’re wiring pathways that support learning, balance, coordination, and focus for YEARS to come.

✨ Why Crawling Matters
• Strengthens core, shoulders & hips
• Builds balance & posture
• Improves hand-eye coordination & depth perception
• Supports reading, writing & attention later in childhood
• Helps babies explore and process the world through movement

🧠 Primitive Reflex Integration
Crawling also plays a key role in helping babies integrate primitive reflexes — the automatic movements babies are born with.
When these reflexes don’t integrate properly, it can impact coordination, speech, behavior, and learning later on.

Crawling helps the nervous system:
• Develop cross-body coordination
• Build communication between brain hemispheres
• Support organized motor & sensory development

When babies skip crawling or rush through it, the brain may miss some of this important work.

⸻

✨ Parent Tip:
Encourage tummy time + floor play and let your little one explore movement at their own pace — no rush to walk! 🚫👣

👶 If baby avoids tummy time, skips crawling, or shows difficulty with movement…
It may be a sign their nervous system needs support.

Gentle pediatric chiropractic can help improve mobility, comfort, and nervous system function to support healthy development 💛

Milestones Matter 🧠✨

Every wiggle, roll, and reach your little one does is more than just “cute” — it’s building their brain and nervous system. 👶🧠

From tummy time → rolling → sitting → crawling → walking, each milestone helps:
✅ Brain-body communication
✅ Balance & coordination
✅ Core strength
✅ Hand-eye coordination
✅ Future learning skills

Skipping or rushing through milestones can impact long-term movement and development — which is why paying attention to these early skills is so important!

💡 Stay tuned tomorrow — we’ll dive deeper into why crawling is a major milestone for brain development and how it helps your little one thrive.

🐴🐶🐮Animal Nervous System 101

Animals have a nervous system just like we do — it controls movement, balance, digestion, behavior, and stress.

Think of it like this 👇
Brain = the control center
Spinal cord = the communication highway
Nerves = the messengers to every muscle & organ

When the nervous system is working well →
✅ Smooth, coordinated movement
✅ Strong posture & balance
✅ Better digestion
✅ Calm behavior & focus
✅ Faster recovery & performance

When it’s stressed or not communicating well →
🐎 Shortened stride / stiffness
🐕 Difficulty jumping, running, or climbing
🐄 Decreased performance or changes in gait
🐈 Sensitivity to touch or grooming
😣 Irritability, anxiety, or behavior shifts

Chiropractic care helps support the nervous system by improving mobility, alignment, and communication between the brain & body — naturally and gently.

A healthier spine = a clearer nervous system = a happier, better-moving animal 🤍

Understanding how your lifestyle, stress, and nervous system health influence your ability to conceive.

⸻

🛑 Stress & Nervous System Health
Your brain and body communicate through your nervous system, which also helps regulate hormones that control ovulation, menstruation, and fertility.
When you’re under chronic stress, your body prioritizes “survival” over reproduction.

〽️ Hormone Imbalance
Disruptions in estrogen, progesterone, thyroid, or insulin can affect cycle regularity and ovulation. Balance starts with healthy communication between the brain, glands, and organs.

🍎 Nutrition & Gut Health
Whole foods, healthy fats, and stable blood sugar support hormone balance and egg/sperm health. Processed foods, alcohol, and gut inflammation can disrupt fertility.

💤 Sleep & Rhythm
Your reproductive hormones follow your circadian rhythm. Poor sleep or inconsistent schedules can reduce fertility and hormone regulation.

🦴 Pelvic Alignment & Circulation
Misalignments in the pelvis or lower spine can affect nerve flow and blood supply to reproductive organs.

💊 Toxins & Lifestyle
Chemicals in plastics, fragrances, and pesticides can mimic or block hormones. Minimize exposure and support your body’s natural detox systems through hydration and nutrition.

✨ Chiropractic care helps support this balance by improving nervous system function, reducing stress, and creating optimal communication throughout the body.

✨ This one’s for the girls…
…the ones who were never really taught how their cycle actually works.

1️⃣ Menstrual Phase (Days 1–5)
What’s happening: The uterine lining sheds as hormone levels (estrogen and progesterone) drop.
You may feel: Lower energy, more introspective, and possibly crampy or fatigued.
Support: Rest, gentle movement, hydration, nutrient-dense foods rich in iron and magnesium.

⸻

2️⃣ Follicular Phase (Days 6–14)
What’s happening: The brain releases FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), prompting egg maturation. Estrogen rises, thickening the uterine lining.
You may feel: Energized, creative, social, and motivated.
Support: Movement, brain stimulation, and protein-rich foods.

⸻

3️⃣ Ovulatory Phase (Around Day 14)
What’s happening: A surge in LH (luteinizing hormone) triggers ovulation — the release of an egg.
You may feel: Confident, outgoing, higher libido, and most fertile.
Support: Proper hydration, anti-inflammatory foods, and managing stress to support optimal hormone balance.

⸻

4️⃣ Luteal Phase (Days 15–28)
What’s happening: Progesterone rises to prepare for possible implantation. If pregnancy doesn’t occur, hormones fall, signaling the next cycle.
You may feel: Calmer, more inward-focused — or experience PMS symptoms if hormone levels fluctuate.
Support: Prioritize sleep, magnesium-rich foods, and stress regulation.

🧠 And through it all — your nervous system is in charge.
It coordinates hormone communication between your brain and reproductive organs, regulates stress, and keeps your body in rhythm. When that communication is clear, your cycle flows with ease.

That’s where chiropractic care comes in — supporting pelvic balance, nervous system regulation, and hormonal harmony so your body can function the way it was designed to.

• Clinical internship (~1,020 hrs)

Examples of Classes/ Training: Regional Anatomy, Systemic Anatomy, Neuroanatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Pathology, Clinical Neurology, Diagnostic Imaging/ Radiology, Nutrition, Pediatrics/OB-GYN, Ethics & Business, Orthopedic & Neurological Diagnosis, Rehabilitation and Applied Technique. Supervised patient care in the student clinic and affiliated sites — real patients, real case management.

National Boards Exams (NBCE):
Part l: Basic Sciences
Part ll: Clinical Sciences
Part lll: Clinical Competency

Physiotherapy Exam

Oklahoma licensure requirements: NBCE + state jurisprudence exam, plus 16 hours of continuing education annually.

Specialty training: Dr. Bailey has completed the 200+ hour certification course in Animal Chiropractic with 20 hours of animal continuing education due every 3 years and 200+ hours in Pediatric/Perinatal Chiropractic.

All those hours = evidence of rigorous science + thousands of hours of hands-on practice. So next time someone says “they’re not real doctors,” you can say: same dedication, different toolbox. 🧠🔧

10/23/2025

Tomorrow Dr. Bailey is headed to Barnsdall to work on horses! 🐴 She’s got room for just a couple more — message us on Facebook or give us a call ASAP to snag a spot!
