Chiropractic Treatment For Colic: Is It Effective?

When you have a baby that is suffering from colic, you are likely to try anything to help them feel better. When you are investigating natural and effective remedies for colic you might read or hear something about chiropractic treatments. At first, this may seem a bit radical to you, but as time and suffering goes on, it will begin to look like a more and more viable treatment. And, it is! Chiropractic treatment of colic is a very real and effective treatment for many babies and their parents that just can't handle the pain anymore.

Now, you probably don't want to try the true chiropractic treatments on your own, though you can learn some massage that might help. You'll want to find a chiropractor that is certified to work on small infants, and you'll also want to interview him or her to be sure that you are confident in their skills. Chiropractic treatments are all natural, but that does not mean that you should put your child into the hands of someone that is not qualified. When you find a chiropractor that you are 100% comfortable with, then you should give it a go and see if you can't find some relief for your baby.

Chiropractic treatments of colic usually have to do with lengthening the body and stretching it out so that the intestines don't have kinks in them. You'll also find that many chiropractors believe that colic is caused by spinal misalignment and with a few small adjustments your baby might find some relief with a newly aligned spine. The chiropractic treatments are usually painless, though your baby might react strongly as the strong hands of a chiropractor handle them.

Chiropractic treatments of colic are often called colic release techniques and the number of children that benefit are amazing. Often times, your chiropractor will give you ten or so exercises to do with your baby every day, and these will take less than ten minutes. 70% of babies treated with chiropractic or colic release techniques will experience significant relief of colic symptoms and others will find at least some easing of their symptoms.

The reason that chiropractic treatments work is because they address the cause of the symptoms, not just the symptoms. While you may be giving your baby remedies such as Donatol, Buscopan, or Gaviscon to treat symptoms, they aren't really doing anything to prevent the colic from happening in the first place. When you confront colic from a chiropractic point of view you are getting to the root of the problem, and many times you can extinguish it completely.

Chiropractic treatments may seem a bit radical to you, but they work. They don't take much time, they usually aren't all that expensive, and because they provide your child with almost immediate relief they are well worth any expense. Find a qualified chiropractor and learn how you can provide your child with relief sooner rather than later! It's worth it!
