    Horrifying quackery! No, babies do not benefit from #chiropractic adjustments. Adjustments do not help colic, constipation, or ear infections, as this chiropractor claims. https://twitter.com/DrChadMorton/status/974666665500790784 …

        Talk about infuriating. Who the hell would take their baby to a chiropractor?

        Had a friend once told by a chiropractor that she shouldn’t have had the hysterectomy for bleeding that made her anemic, it was that her colon was “out of alignment”. WTF?

        I was told that I was phydically abusing my toddler by getting ear tubes. Granted we lived in the heart of crazy chiro country, but still. Also been told we don't need any meds, including psych. Just adjustments...

        Very cringeworthy. Unfortunately, I've had many parents tell me they have taken their infant or child to see a chiro. There are other regulated HCPs that provide safe, evidenced-based care to children. It's hard to understand where this disconnect stems from.

        Our lactation consultant often recommends chiropractics (they do massage too) when babies are having difficulty latching. Their jaws, necks and heads are often very sore/tight from the delivery. Some moms have told me that they see a difference almost immediately!👶🏻🤰🏻

        May what you say is true ... but when you are desperate for help and the Medical profession will not help you and a Chiropractor will then maybe you will change your mind. BUT I do agree with you gentlemen and never support anything that has not personally helped me :o)
