Pregnancy & Chiropractic Care

As a Webster Technique certified practitioner and a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), Dr. Goodman supports expectant mothers throughout their pregnancy.  There is a notion that back pain and discomfort is normal during pregnancy.  Although a woman's body is going through many physical changes, there is no reason she cannot have an enjoyable, active experience.
 
 

Dr. Goodman Demontrates the
Webster Technique


Dr. Goodman uses light force as well as standard, diversified techniques to help a woman as her body is changing.  The Webster Technique is specifically geared towards creating a neutral pelvis and therefore decreasing the incidence of pelvic torsion and creating an environment for optimal fetal positioning.  Chiropractic care during pregnancy is intended to promote a healthy pregnancy and an uneventful labor and delivery.

Labor and delivery is an adventure!  It is grueling and stressful on the baby's delicate spine and nervous system.  Dr. Goodman checks newborn babies to decrease any suboccipital stress or other nervous system interference that may be affecting their mood, sleep, nursing/feeding and overall health.

Kids & Chiropractic Care

Children should establish their chiropractic care history early in life.  Just as pediatrician does a "well" check-up on your children at key milesones, so does Dr. Goodman.  Biomechanical milestones include:
  • Birth
  • Sitting Up
  • Crawling
  • Creeping
  • Walking
  • Running

How will I know if my child should see a chiropractor?

During the first few years kids should schedule Well visits monthly or as milestones approach.  However, if you see any of the following behavior, schedule an appointment sooner:

  • Infant who has colic, acid reflux, trouble nursing, head tilt, trouble sleeping
  • Baby who is crawling unconventially - scooting or comando crawling
  • Toddler who is increasingly clumsy or falls a lot
  • Child who tramplines often
  • Suspician of scoliosis
  • Any sporting or casual fall or injury
  • Headaches

Chiropractic has also been found to be helpful with conditions such as ADHD, Ear Infections and decreased immune function.
