Infant Acid Reflux/Colic and Resolution with Chiropractic-Chicago chiropractor 60630

Sixteen infants were diagnosed by their physicians with acid reflux (9 infants) or colic (7 infants). Ten of the 16 mothers reported difficulty in their child's birth (mechanical forces) that could have caused upper cervical (neck) injuries, such as the use of vacuum extraction or the wrapping of the umbilical cord around the infant's neck.

In every child, trauma-induced upper cervical subluxations (spinal distortions causing nerve damage) were found. In every case, the acid reflux and/or colic (all 16) resolved after the child received chiropractic care to the upper cervical area.
