The First Subluxation

The birth process may be the cause of our first subluxation . Forceps and vacuum type devices used in birthing can cause extreme trauma to an infant's spine. Even "natural" childbirth methods can affect an infant's spine. Studies suggest that colic, poor appetite, ear infections or erratic sleeping habits can all be signs of subluxation. Relax. Newborn adjustments are gentle. As a rule, no more pressure than you'd use to test the ripeness of a tomato is involved.

"Growing Pains"

Learning to walk, ride a bike or play sports can produce subluxations. Many times these subluxations are written off as growing pains. Ignored, these problems may worsen until they can become more difficult to correct as an adult.
