Three Generations of Caring for Families

Dr. Roses comes from a family of New Jersey pediatric chiropractors, bringing decades of combined experience to Hudson Heights families. This isn’t just a job for us—it’s a calling that’s been passed down through generations.

Baby Reflux Treatment Hudson Heights

Simple Steps to Your Baby's Relief

Your first visit starts with us listening to your concerns. We want to understand exactly what your baby is experiencing—the crying patterns, feeding challenges, sleep disruptions, and anything else that’s worrying you as a parent.

Next, we perform a gentle examination designed specifically for infants. We’re looking for subtle misalignments or tension patterns that might be affecting your baby’s comfort and development. This exam uses the lightest touch—about as much pressure as you’d use to check if a tomato is ripe.

Treatment involves incredibly gentle adjustments that help release tension and restore proper nervous system function. Most babies actually relax during treatment, and many parents notice improvements in their child’s comfort level right away. We’ll also provide guidance on positioning, feeding, and other practical tips to support your baby’s healing at home.

About DR Roses

Chiropractic for Newborns Hudson Heights

Comprehensive Care for Your Growing Child

Our pediatric chiropractic services address the full spectrum of infant and childhood concerns. From birth trauma that can occur during delivery to developmental challenges as your child grows, we’re here to support their journey.

Hudson Heights families particularly appreciate our focus on natural solutions that complement their pediatric medical care. We work alongside your child’s doctor, not instead of them, to ensure your little one gets the best possible care from all angles.

Whether your baby was born via C-section, had a difficult delivery, struggles with latching for breastfeeding, or simply seems uncomfortable and fussy, pediatric chiropractic care can help. We also support older children dealing with growing pains, sports injuries, or posture issues from heavy backpacks and long days at school.

Is chiropractic care safe for my newborn baby?

Absolutely. Pediatric chiropractic care is incredibly gentle and has been safely used for over 100 years. The techniques we use for infants involve the lightest possible touch—imagine the pressure you’d use to check if a peach is ripe.

Clinical studies following nearly 700 pediatric patients through more than 5,200 treatments found no adverse effects. The adjustments are specifically designed for your baby’s delicate developing spine and nervous system.

We never use the same techniques on babies that we might use on adults. Everything is modified for your child’s size, age, and specific needs. Most babies actually find the treatment relaxing and often fall asleep during their visit.

Many parents notice changes within the first few visits, though every baby responds differently. Research shows that 25% of colicky infants show significant improvement after just one adjustment, while 63% achieve clinically meaningful reduction in crying time within two weeks of care.

The key is consistency. Colic typically develops over weeks or months, so it makes sense that resolution takes some time too. Most babies need 3-6 visits over 2-3 weeks to see substantial improvement.

What’s encouraging is that unlike medications, which only mask symptoms, chiropractic care addresses the underlying nervous system dysfunction that contributes to colic. This means the improvements tend to be lasting rather than temporary.

Yes, many babies experience significant improvement in reflux symptoms with gentle chiropractic care. Research indicates that 9 out of 10 infants show meaningful improvement in gastroesophageal reflux when treated with pediatric chiropractic techniques.

Reflux often stems from tension in the diaphragm and surrounding muscles that affect how the stomach and esophagus function. When babies are uncomfortable and cry frequently, this creates even more tension in these areas, creating a cycle of discomfort.

Our gentle adjustments help release this tension and improve nervous system function, allowing your baby’s digestive system to work more effectively. We also provide practical guidance on feeding positions, timing, and other strategies that can reduce reflux episodes at home.

Your first visit is all about getting to know your baby and understanding their specific challenges. We’ll spend time discussing your pregnancy, delivery experience, and what you’ve noticed about your baby’s behavior, feeding, and sleep patterns.

The examination is incredibly gentle and often done while you’re holding your baby or while they’re lying comfortably on a special pediatric pillow. We’re looking for areas of tension or misalignment that might be contributing to their discomfort.

If treatment is appropriate, we’ll perform very light adjustments using techniques designed specifically for infants. Many babies actually seem to enjoy the process and become more relaxed. We’ll also discuss practical strategies you can use at home to support your baby’s comfort and development.

More and more pediatricians are recognizing the value of integrative care for infants, especially when traditional approaches aren’t providing relief. We encourage open communication with your child’s medical doctor and are happy to coordinate care.

Chiropractic care doesn’t replace medical care—it complements it. We’re addressing the structural and nervous system aspects of your baby’s health while your pediatrician manages medical concerns. This team approach often provides the best outcomes for children.

If your pediatrician has questions about our approach, we’re always willing to discuss our techniques and share research about pediatric chiropractic safety and effectiveness. Most medical doctors appreciate having additional resources to help their young patients feel better.

Treatment frequency depends on your baby’s specific needs and how they respond to care. For acute issues like colic or reflux, we typically recommend 2-3 visits per week for the first 2-3 weeks, then gradually reduce frequency as symptoms improve.

Some babies need only a few visits to achieve lasting improvement, while others benefit from ongoing supportive care as they grow and develop. We always tailor our recommendations to your child’s individual response and your family’s preferences.

The goal is always to provide the minimum amount of care needed to achieve maximum improvement. We’re not interested in creating dependency—we want to help your baby’s nervous system function optimally so they can thrive naturally. As your child grows, periodic check-ups can help ensure they stay comfortable through developmental milestones.
