Picture this: your baby settles peacefully after feeding instead of screaming for hours. You actually get a full night’s sleep. Your family finds its rhythm again.
This isn’t wishful thinking. Research shows that up to 94% of infants with colic experience significant improvement with gentle chiropractic care. Many parents notice changes after just one visit.
Your baby’s nervous system controls everything from digestion to sleep patterns. When birth trauma or positioning issues create interference, even the gentlest correction can restore balance and bring relief.
At Roses Chiropractic, we’ve been serving families in Country Village, NJ for years. We know what it’s like to feel helpless when your baby is in distress.
Dr. Roses specializes in pediatric care, with extensive training in gentle techniques designed specifically for infants and children. We work with the tiniest patients—some just days old—using pressure so light it’s like checking the ripeness of an avocado.
Our Country Village families appreciate our collaborative approach. We work alongside your pediatrician, never replacing medical care but complementing it with natural solutions that support your child’s developing nervous system.
Your first visit starts with a thorough consultation. We’ll discuss your baby’s birth experience, feeding patterns, sleep habits, and specific concerns. This helps us understand what might be contributing to their discomfort.
Next comes our gentle examination. We check for areas where the spine or nervous system might not be functioning optimally. For infants, this often involves the upper neck and areas that control digestion and sleep.
Our adjustments use the lightest touch possible—many babies sleep right through them. We typically see families 2-3 times per week initially, then space visits further apart as improvements hold. Most parents notice positive changes within the first few visits.

While colic brings many families to us, pediatric chiropractic care addresses multiple concerns that affect Country Village families. We help with reflux, feeding difficulties, sleep issues, ear infections, and developmental challenges.
Country Village’s diverse community means we see families from many backgrounds, all seeking natural solutions for their children’s health. With 21.7% of our area’s population being children under 15, we understand the unique needs of growing families in our community.
Our gentle techniques support your child’s natural healing abilities without medications or invasive procedures. We focus on optimizing nervous system function, which controls everything from digestion to immune response, giving your child the best foundation for healthy development.
Absolutely. Pediatric chiropractic care has been safely practiced for over 100 years. The techniques we use for infants are incredibly gentle—about the same pressure you’d use to check if a tomato is ripe.
Our adjustments involve no popping, twisting, or forceful movements. Many babies actually fall asleep during treatment because it’s so gentle and soothing. Dr. Roses has specialized training in pediatric techniques and understands the unique anatomy and needs of developing infants.
Research consistently shows pediatric chiropractic care to be one of the safest healthcare interventions available, with serious adverse events being extremely rare. We always work within your baby’s comfort level and stop if they become distressed.
Many parents notice changes after the first visit, though every baby responds differently. Research shows that 63% of colicky infants achieve clinically significant improvement within just a few treatments.
Some babies become noticeably calmer immediately after their first adjustment. Others may take 2-3 visits before you see substantial changes. We typically recommend an initial series of visits over 2-3 weeks to allow the nervous system to integrate the changes.
The key is consistency. Colic often develops over weeks or months, so while relief can be rapid, it usually takes several visits to create lasting change. Most families see significant improvement within two weeks of starting care.
Yes, gentle chiropractic adjustments often help with reflux and feeding difficulties. The nervous system controls digestion, and misalignments from birth trauma can interfere with proper stomach and esophageal function.
When we correct subluxations in the upper cervical spine, we often see improvements in feeding patterns, reduced spit-up, and better overall comfort during and after meals. Many babies also latch better for breastfeeding once restrictions in the neck and jaw are addressed.
We also provide guidance on positioning, feeding techniques, and other natural approaches that can complement the chiropractic care. The goal is supporting your baby’s entire digestive system to function optimally.
Your first visit begins with a detailed consultation about your pregnancy, birth experience, and your baby’s current challenges. We’ll discuss feeding patterns, sleep habits, crying episodes, and any concerns you have.
The examination is gentle and thorough. We check your baby’s spine, skull, and nervous system function using light touch and observation. We look for areas of tension, asymmetry, or restricted movement that might be causing discomfort.
If adjustments are needed, they’re performed using the gentlest techniques possible. You’ll be present throughout the entire process, and we encourage questions. Many parents are surprised by how subtle and gentle the treatment is—nothing like adult chiropractic care.
Treatment frequency depends on your baby’s specific needs and how they respond to care. Initially, we typically recommend visits 2-3 times per week for 2-3 weeks to create momentum and lasting change.
As your baby improves, we space visits further apart. Some families transition to weekly visits, then monthly check-ups. Others may only need occasional care during growth spurts or developmental milestones.
Our goal is always to provide the minimum care necessary for maximum benefit. We don’t believe in indefinite treatment plans. Once your baby’s nervous system is functioning well and symptoms have resolved, we’ll discuss a maintenance schedule that makes sense for your family’s needs.
More pediatricians are recognizing the benefits of gentle chiropractic care for infants. We encourage open communication with your child’s medical doctor and are happy to coordinate care when appropriate.
We never replace medical care—we complement it. If your baby has serious medical conditions, we’ll work alongside your pediatrician to ensure comprehensive care. Many local pediatricians refer patients to us for colic, feeding issues, and other functional problems.
We provide progress reports and maintain professional relationships with many healthcare providers in the Country Village area. Our goal is supporting your baby’s health through collaborative, integrative care that gives them every advantage for healthy development.
