Chiropractic care is for the entire family.

Imagine only mom and dad going to the dentist to get their teeth checked. No one would dream of leaving the kids at home and leaving the health of their teeth to chance. Yet much of the world still does not understand the importance of a properly functioning spine and nervous system, no matter your age.

We care for people of all ages, beginning with newborns. We believe vitality is for everyone, and not just those capable of asking for it.

Westwood Family Chiropractic was designed with your family in mind. We have created a warm and welcoming environment where everyone can feel comfortable and understood.

We understand that quality chiropractic care should be accessible to everyone. We have designed affordable family payment plans that bypass the restrictions imposed by insurance. Our flexible plans enable you and your loved ones to receive the necessary care.

If you are looking to schedule an appointment for just yourself, ask our staff about bringing in the whole family to have the health of their spine and nervous system evaluated as well.

A Mantra for Max

Every night before bed, Max would mutter to himself, "Tomorrow is going to suck." Without fail, the next day lived up to his low expectations. For years, Max found himself trapped in a cycle of negativity. Every morning he dreaded going to his job, felt weighed down by daily stresses, and struggled to find joy in his life. This constant focus on what was wrong left him exhausted and disconnected from the people around him.

Finally, his partner pointed out that the problem may not be with his life at all, but the problem might be in his mindset. His partner challenged Max to stop saying “Tomorrow is going to suck” and start practicing gratitude through a daily mantra. Skeptical but desperate for change, Max decided to give it a shot. Each night, before bed, he quietly repeated to himself, “I am grateful for the good in my life.”

Prenatal Chiropractic Care

Westwood Family Chiropractic may help you achieve a safer, more comfortable birth; however you choose to have it. Your body is designed to birth your baby and chiropractic care aims to support your body’s natural functions. Chiropractic care is safe, gentle, and effective during pregnancy.

As a baby grows inside of a person’s body, the proper alignment of the spine and pelvis through chiropractic adjustments can support not only a healthy pregnancy but also a more optimal birth. While a chiropractic adjustment is not a treatment for any pregnancy-related conditions, regular chiropractic care during pregnancy optimizes the spinal biomechanics (alignment and movement of the spine) as well as ensures proper nerve supply. Your muscles, uterus, and pelvic alignment rely on clear communication between your brain and body through the nervous system. When your spine is well adjusted your brain can better communicate with your body, optimizing your body’s overall function. While under regular care you may notice more comfort during pregnancy, a shorter labor time, and more confidence in your birth.

The Webster technique is the gold standard of chiropractic protocol in caring for an expecting parent. The evaluation is totally non-invasive. Sacral subluxation may contribute to difficult labor for the mother (i.e., dystocia), caused by inadequate uterine function, pelvic contraction, and baby mal-presentation. Correction of sacral subluxation may have a positive effect on all of these causes of dystocia. Should your exam reveal less than optimal biomechanics or nerve flow, the adjustment is a specific, gentle force application to the spine. Research has shown that people who receive the Webster technique during pregnancy have easier pregnancies and better birth outcomes.

At Westwood Family Chiropractic, our chiropractors are extensively trained in the Webster technique through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA). This specific training allows our chiropractors to provide exceptional care and support to expectant parents during the prenatal period.
