Treating Babies with Colic

ColicBaby

Mothers know how helplessly frustrating a colicky baby can be: The relentless crying that can’t seem to be remedied. Babies have brand new gastrointestinal systems, and with that come new difficult tasks for the new body. Babies with colic are often suffering from Infant Acid Reflux, painful gas and indigestion, constipation, or food sensitivities. While symptoms can be difficult to peg, babies with colic tend to have abrupt episodes of crying or wailing lasting more than 3 hours at a time, multiple times a week for several weeks.

With colicky babies, irritated nerves cause disturbances to the intestines, stomach, and other gastrointestinal organs leading to a build up of gas in the intestines. Chiropractic adjustments help restore communication and function of those nerves while eliminating pain from irritated nerves.

I specialize in using Light Force Technique adjustments and Activator Method to relieve colic in infants. If you think your baby is suffering from colic, call our clinic in Tustin @ 714 730 2225 to see how we can help.

Is it Really Possible to Balance Hormones Naturally?

Natural Hormone Balancing in Women

Did you know that PMS, blood sugar levels and estrogen dominance all have similar symptoms? Estrogen dominance is when the body has excess estrogen and is unopposed or not balanced by progesterone. This syndrome occurs due to specific situations, such as hormone replacement therapy, exposure to xenoestrogens, birth control pills, and hysterectomies.  Xenoestrogens are found in skin care, food, insecticides, and building supplies.

According to Dr. John Lee , M.D. he feels that, “estrogen dominance is a huge factor in conditions such as, uterine fibroids, breast/uterine cancer, premenopausal bone loss, PMS and Fibrocystic breasts.”

Here is a list of symptoms that can be caused or made worse by estrogen dominance:

Headaches, fatigue, irritability, mood swings, insomnia, infertility, allergies, autoimmune disorders, osteoporosis, and PMS

Diet plays a role in estrogen dominance. Looking closely at what foods are being eaten and the quantity is very important for the balancing of a women’s  hormones.

Pregnancy and Chiropractic

Exploring the Benefits of Chiropractic Before, During, and After Pregnancy

Many women experience discomforts during pregnancy. Good Chiropractic can help.

Are you aware that up to 80% of women experience lower back pain during pregnancy? The average woman gains 25-35 pounds during a pregnancy and the weight of the growing baby shifts her weight forward in her pelvis.  A patient-centered Chiropractor can help alleviate this pain through gentle manipulation of the lower back. Studies have proven this to be an effective way of helping women through this time without the use of over the counter pain medications which are discouraged during pregnancy.

Doctors of Chiropractic also can advise a woman about nutrition, exercise and ergonomics to help her have the healthiest pregnancy possible.

After pregnancy, during the post-partum period, a woman’s body returns to its pre-pregnancy state and good Chiropractic care can aid the muscles and ligaments to realign properly with the skeletal structure and thus prevent future aches and pains, headaches, muscle tension, rib discomfort and shoulder problems.

Are you pregnant or did you recently have a baby? Are you still experiencing lower back and/or pelvic pain from a previous pregnancy?
