Finally, Peaceful Nights for Everyone

You know something isn’t right when your baby arches their back, cries for hours, or struggles to sleep. After gentle chiropractic care, parents tell us their babies are calmer, sleeping better, and feeding more easily.

Those 3 a.m. crying sessions become rare memories. Your baby settles into their crib without the usual fussing. Feeding time becomes bonding time instead of a battle.

The constant worry lifts when you see your little one comfortable and content. Your family gets the rest you desperately need, and your baby gets the natural support their developing nervous system craves.

Chiropractor for Newborns Harborside

Trusted Pediatric Care Since Day One

Dr. Paul Roses originally wanted to be a pediatrician before discovering chiropractic’s power to help children naturally. He’s been serving Hudson County families for years, understanding that Harborside parents want safe, effective care for their babies.

Unlike the crowded pediatric offices where you’re told to “wait it out,” we take time to understand what your baby is experiencing. Many Harborside families come to us when traditional approaches haven’t provided answers.

Our gentle approach recognizes that babies born in local hospitals often experience stress from the birth process itself. Whether your delivery was at Jersey City Medical Center or elsewhere in Hudson County, we help your baby’s nervous system reset and function properly.

Baby Reflux Treatment Process

Gentle Care, Powerful Results

First, we listen to your concerns and examine your baby’s spine and nervous system. This isn’t like adult chiropractic – we use pressure so light you could barely feel it yourself.

During the adjustment, your baby typically lies on your chest while we make gentle corrections to their spine. Many babies actually fall asleep during treatment because it feels so soothing.

Most parents notice changes within the first few visits. Your baby may cry less, sleep longer, or feed more easily. We track progress together and adjust our approach based on how your little one responds.

What Your Baby Receives

Your baby gets specialized care designed for their delicate nervous system. We address common issues that affect many Harborside newborns: birth trauma from difficult deliveries, positioning problems from time in the womb, and nervous system stress that shows up as colic or feeding difficulties.

Hudson County has seen its share of challenging births, and local hospitals report increasing C-section rates. These interventions, while sometimes necessary, can create tension patterns in your baby’s spine and nervous system.

Our treatment helps restore proper function to your baby’s developing system. This means better sleep, easier digestion, and less crying – the things every Harborside parent desperately wants for their child and their family’s well-being.

Is chiropractic care safe for my newborn baby?

Yes, when performed by a trained pediatric chiropractor, infant care is extremely safe. We use pressure so gentle you could barely feel it on your own skin – nothing like adult adjustments.

The techniques are specifically designed for babies’ delicate anatomy. Your baby typically lies on your chest during treatment, and many actually fall asleep because the touch is so soothing.

Serious complications in infant chiropractic care are extraordinarily rare when proper techniques are used. We’ve treated hundreds of Harborside babies safely, and parents consistently report positive changes in their little ones’ comfort and behavior.

We can safely treat babies as young as a few days old. In fact, many parents choose to have their newborn’s spine checked right after birth, especially if there were complications during delivery.

The earlier we address spinal stress, the better. Birth itself can be traumatic for babies – even “normal” deliveries can create tension patterns that affect how your baby feels and functions.

Many Harborside parents bring their babies within the first few weeks of life, particularly if they’re experiencing colic, feeding difficulties, or sleep problems. Early intervention often leads to faster, more complete resolution of these issues.

We commonly help babies with colic, reflux, feeding difficulties, sleep problems, and general fussiness. Many of these issues stem from nervous system stress caused by birth trauma or positioning in the womb.

Babies who had difficult births – whether vacuum extraction, forceps delivery, or C-section – often benefit significantly from gentle spinal care. Even babies who were breech or spent long periods in labor can develop tension patterns.

We also see improvements in ear infections, constipation, and developmental milestones like holding their head up or rolling over. When the nervous system functions properly, many aspects of your baby’s health and development improve naturally.

Most babies show improvement within 2-4 visits, though every child is different. Some parents notice changes immediately after the first treatment, while others see gradual improvement over several sessions.

Acute issues like colic often resolve quickly with consistent care. More complex problems or babies with significant birth trauma may need ongoing support as they grow and develop.

We always work with your family’s schedule and budget. Many Harborside parents find that a few early visits prevent bigger problems later, making it a worthwhile investment in their child’s long-term health and comfort.

No, the treatment doesn’t hurt. The pressure we use is incredibly gentle – about the same amount you’d use to test the ripeness of a tomato. Most babies find the treatment soothing and relaxing.

You’ll be holding your baby throughout the treatment, which helps them feel secure and comfortable. Many babies actually stop crying and become calm during their adjustment.

If your baby does fuss during treatment, it’s usually because they’re already uncomfortable from whatever brought them to us in the first place, not from what we’re doing. The gentle corrections we make typically help reduce their overall discomfort.

Infant chiropractic uses completely different techniques than adult care. There’s no twisting, popping, or forceful movements. Instead, we use sustained, gentle pressure and light touches specifically designed for babies’ developing spines.

The examination is also different – we watch how your baby moves, check their muscle tone, and assess their nervous system function. Everything is adapted for their size, development stage, and comfort level.

Our focus is on supporting your baby’s natural growth and development rather than correcting established problems. This preventive approach helps ensure your child develops proper spinal alignment and nervous system function from the very beginning.
