MY SECRET WEAPON 👇🏼 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

MY SECRET WEAPON 👇🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When I am in a pinch, thinking about what to have for dinner, I love having an easy protein source on hand!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@amylufoods is one of my favorite brands for a quick protein source.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✔️ their chickens are raised without antibiotics
✔️ nitrate & nitrite free
✔️ gluten-free
✔️ great source of protein
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My family loves their chicken burgers and their meatballs! I found these products at my local @costco.

🚨If your baby favors looking to one side over the other, this post is for you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Torticollis (Latin for “twisted neck”) occurs when the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscles that run on both sides of the neck from the back of the ears to the collarbone become stiff or tight.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Approximately 1/250 babies are born with torticollis (making it a common condition), and up to 20% of babies born with torticollis also have hip dysplasia.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Favoring one side can also cause Positional Plagiocephaly, or “flat head” on that side.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🔆 How Can You Help Prevent Torticollis? Check out these tips from @pathwaysorg:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅ When holding baby, alternate the sides of your body.
✅ Limit the use of carriers/containers.
✅ When feeding the baby, offer the bottle or breast in a way that encourages the baby to turn away from the favored side.
✅ Lots of tummy time.
✅ When playing with the baby, be sure to do the activity/game on both sides of the baby so they turn their head.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How Can Chiropractors Help Torticollis?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pediatric chiropractors are specially trained to GENTLY work with the baby’s cranial alignment and use soft tissue therapy to encourage normal movement.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can also show Mom and Dad how to stretch easily at home. 💛 (Improvement is usually seen within 2-3 months!)

I see a lot of patients at my practice in Sioux Falls, SD, including babies...

Why does a baby need chiropractic care?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The process of being born is super challenging for the mom, but also for the baby.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
According to Pathways Magazine, 90% of newborns suffered the effects of birth trauma (associated strain through the neck and cranial areas following birth).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We don’t mean to imply that babies are fragile or that we are inherently in need of fixing, but a little tune-up definitely helps their nervous systems get off to a great start!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The research done by Viola Frymann, an American osteopathic doctor, studied more than 1,500 babies periodically across eight years. She examined all babies within the first five days of birth (most were checked within the first 24 hours).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pathways states:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“This study revealed that approximately:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅ 10 percent of the newborn babies had perfect, freely mobile skulls or cranial mechanisms.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅ 10 percent had severe trauma to the head, evident even to untrained observers.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅ The remaining 80 percent had some strain patterns in the “cranial mechanism.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Chiropractors specializing in babies and children are highly trained to correct these issues and minimize the baby’s spinal growth and development.

Pregnant mamas, is your pain holding you back?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re pregnant and you feel a sudden sharp pain when you stand, sneeze, or roll over in bed, we can help! 🤰🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The round ligaments connecting the front of your uterus to your groin can typically start causing pain in the second trimester of pregnancy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As your uterus and belly grow, your round ligaments stretch and can spasm or tighten, especially if your baby’s position is slightly off balance. This can cause a sudden sharp pain in the belly called round ligament pain.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
😥 Round Ligament pain can be severe enough to limit walking and can cause significant pain when rolling over in bed, standing up, or even sneezing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gentle, pregnancy-safe adjustments can help relieve tension and ease the baby into a more balanced position- so come see me! 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

10 FREE ways to invest in your health!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📌 SAVE this post for reference. 📌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Get outside, especially first thing in the morning.
2. Get in the sun and gaze at the sky, even if it’s cloudy.
3. Move your body in whatever way feels fun to you!
4. Meditate, even if it’s just two minutes of noticing your breath.
5. Sleep, even when Netflix has you sucked in. Aim for 8 hours.
6. Set boundaries. Learning to say no and not sign up for ONE more camp is A-OK.
7. Laugh. Call your best friend. Watch funny cat videos. Read a funny book.
8. Stay hydrated. We love LMNT or even eating watermelon!
9. Practice grounding. Stand barefoot in the grass. Bonus points if you are touching a tree. Seriously.
10. Deep breathing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Health doesn’t have to be a luxury or complicated. It’s the foundational, tiny habits that will truly make a difference.
