She’s got the activator ready for adjusting!

An activator is a handheld, spring-loaded tool that delivers a quick, precise, low-force impulse to adjust spinal and extremity joints, helping to restore motion, reduce pain (like back, neck, headaches), decrease inflammation, and improve nerve function, serving as a gentle alternative to manual adjustments, especially for those sensitive to twisting or cracking sounds.

Nursemaid’s elbow, It happens often!

🚨👶 Parents, Let’s Talk About Elbow Subluxation (Nursemaid’s Elbow) 👋🩺

One of the most common elbow injuries in young children happens not during sports or rough play—but during everyday moments like lifting, pulling, or swinging. It’s called Elbow Subluxation, often known as Nursemaid’s Elbow, and it occurs when the radius bone slips out of place. The images above show exactly how easily this can happen. 😟

Many parents don’t realize that gentle-looking actions—like pulling a child up by one hand, swinging them by the arms, or yanking their hand when they pull away—can lead to sudden pain, crying, and inability to move the arm. 💔

But the good news? It’s completely preventable. 🙌

❗ What to AVOID to prevent elbow subluxation:

🚫 Abruptly pulling a child up by the hand or wrist
🚫 Swinging a child by the hands or wrists
🚫 Pulling a child who is trying to pull away
🚫 Lifting a toddler by one arm

These motions put strain on the elbow joint before it's fully developed. Young children’s ligaments are still loose, so even small forces can cause the radius to slip. 😬

⭐ Safe Alternatives:

✔️ Lift your child by placing hands under their arms, not on their hands
✔️ Hold hands gently without pulling
✔️ Use both hands for support during play
✔️ Teach older siblings never to swing younger kids by the arms

If your child suddenly refuses to use their arm, cries when it’s touched, or holds their arm close to their body, seek medical attention. Treatment is quick and children usually recover instantly once the elbow is put back in place. 💙
