Infant Colic Relief Croxton

Your Baby Sleeps Better, Feeds Easier

When your baby’s spine is properly aligned, their nervous system works the way it should. This means less crying, better digestion, and more peaceful nights for your whole family.

Many parents see improvement after just one visit. Your baby can latch better during feeding. Those painful colic episodes become less frequent. Sleep comes easier for everyone.

The best part? This happens naturally, without medications that might affect your baby’s developing system. Your little one’s body already knows how to heal—we just remove what’s getting in the way.

Chiropractic for Newborns Croxton

Trusted Pediatric Care Since 1981

Dr. Paul Roses originally wanted to be a pediatrician before discovering chiropractic. That heart for helping children has never left him.

He’s been serving families in the Hudson County area for over 40 years, including specialized work with infants at St. Clare’s Home for Children. This experience taught him that babies respond remarkably well to gentle chiropractic care.

The diverse Croxton community trusts us because we understand that every family wants what’s safest for their child. Our approach is always gentle, always focused on your baby’s comfort and your peace of mind.

Baby Reflux Treatment Process

Simple Steps to Your Baby's Relief

Your first visit starts with questions about your baby’s symptoms, feeding patterns, and birth experience. Dr. Roses examines your little one using the gentlest techniques—no twisting, no cracking sounds.

The adjustment itself takes just minutes and uses pressure so light you might wonder if anything happened. Many babies actually fall asleep during treatment because it’s so soothing.

Most parents notice changes within the first few visits. Your baby may feed more easily, sleep longer stretches, or simply seem more comfortable. Each baby responds differently, but the goal remains the same: helping their nervous system work without interference so their body can do what it naturally does best.

Child Chiropractor Services Croxton

Comprehensive Care for Growing Bodies

Your baby receives care specifically designed for their delicate system. Dr. Roses uses techniques that are completely different from adult adjustments—gentler, safer, and perfectly suited for tiny bodies.

Treatment addresses common issues that affect Croxton families: colic that disrupts everyone’s sleep, reflux that makes feeding difficult, and the stress that birth places on your baby’s spine. Many parents in our diverse community appreciate having a natural option that doesn’t involve medications.

The care extends beyond just adjustments. You’ll receive guidance on positioning, feeding techniques, and recognizing signs that your baby’s nervous system is working better. This comprehensive approach helps ensure lasting results for your little one’s comfort and development.

Is chiropractic care safe for newborns and infants?

Absolutely. Pediatric chiropractic care is one of the safest forms of healthcare your baby can receive. The techniques we use for infants are completely different from adult adjustments—there’s no twisting, cracking, or forceful movements.

Dr. Roses uses pressure so gentle it’s similar to checking the ripeness of a tomato. Many babies actually fall asleep during treatment because it’s so soothing. Chiropractors have been safely caring for children for over 100 years, and studies following thousands of pediatric treatments show excellent safety records.

Many parents notice improvements after the first visit, though every baby responds differently. Some infants sleep better that same night, while others may take a few treatments to show significant changes.

Research shows that many babies experience decreased reflux symptoms after just one treatment, and studies on colic indicate that chiropractic care is often more effective than anti-gas medications. Most parents see meaningful improvement within the first week of care.

The key is that we’re addressing the root cause—nervous system interference—rather than just masking symptoms. This often leads to more lasting relief than other approaches.

Chiropractic care can help with many common infant issues including colic, acid reflux, difficulty breastfeeding, sleep disturbances, ear infections, and constipation. It’s also beneficial for babies who seem generally fussy or uncomfortable.

The reason one approach helps so many different problems is simple: your baby’s nervous system controls everything in their body. When spinal misalignments interfere with nerve function, it can affect digestion, sleep, immune function, and overall comfort.

Birth itself can cause these misalignments, even in uncomplicated deliveries. By gently correcting these issues, we help your baby’s body function the way it’s designed to, which often resolves multiple symptoms naturally.

Babies can safely receive chiropractic care from birth. In fact, many parents choose to have their newborn’s spine checked shortly after delivery, since the birth process can place significant stress on a baby’s delicate spine and nervous system.

The earlier we address any misalignments, the easier they typically are to correct. This is especially important during those crucial first months when your baby is developing core muscles, learning to hold their head up, and establishing feeding and sleep patterns.

There’s no age that’s “too young” for gentle chiropractic care. The techniques are specifically modified for each stage of development, ensuring your baby receives exactly the right type of care for their age and size.

Infant chiropractic care uses completely different techniques than adult treatment. There’s no twisting of the neck or spine, no “cracking” sounds, and no forceful movements. The pressure used is extremely gentle—about the same amount you’d use to check if a peach is ripe.

Dr. Roses has specialized training in pediatric techniques that are specifically designed for babies’ developing bodies. The adjustments are quick, gentle, and often so soothing that babies fall asleep during treatment.

The examination process is also different, focusing on how your baby moves, feeds, and sleeps rather than having them describe pain or discomfort. Everything is adapted to work with your infant’s unique needs and developmental stage.

Chiropractic care works alongside your baby’s medical care, not instead of it. We encourage parents to maintain their relationship with their pediatrician and will coordinate care when appropriate.

Many medical doctors now recognize the value of chiropractic care for infants, especially for conditions like colic and reflux where conventional treatments have limited effectiveness. Chiropractic offers a natural, drug-free approach that can often reduce the need for medications.

If your baby has any serious medical conditions, we’ll work with your medical team to ensure all care is coordinated. The goal is always to provide the safest, most effective care possible for your little one.
