Your baby stops crying for hours at a time. You finally get the sleep you desperately need. Feeding becomes peaceful instead of stressful.
That’s what happens when we address the root cause of your infant’s discomfort instead of just masking symptoms. Our gentle adjustments help restore proper nervous system function, allowing your baby’s digestive system to work the way it should.
Most parents see improvement after the first visit. Many report their babies sleep through the night within days of starting care.
Dr. Paul Roses originally wanted to be a pediatrician because he knew children needed gentle, effective healthcare. When he discovered chiropractic, he found something even better – a way to help babies heal naturally without drugs or invasive procedures.
Dr. Dan Roses brings the next generation of expertise, having been adjusted since birth and coming from a family of chiropractors. He specializes in pediatric and prenatal care, understanding exactly what growing families in Marion need.
We’ve been serving families in the area for years, watching babies grow into healthy, thriving children. Marion’s diverse community trusts us because we take time to understand each family’s unique needs and cultural considerations.
Your first visit starts with questions, not adjustments. We want to understand your baby’s birth story, current symptoms, and your concerns as parents.
Next comes our gentle examination. We check for spinal misalignments that commonly occur during birth – even in uncomplicated deliveries. These tiny misalignments can interfere with the nerves controlling digestion, sleep, and comfort.
Our adjustments use the lightest pressure possible – about the same force you’d use to check if a tomato is ripe. Most babies actually relax during treatment. Some even fall asleep.
You’ll typically see changes within the first few visits. Better sleep. Less crying. Easier feeding. We’ll track your baby’s progress and adjust our approach as needed.

Every infant gets a comprehensive evaluation designed specifically for their developing nervous system. We check the entire spine from neck to pelvis, looking for restrictions that might be causing discomfort.
Our care addresses the most common issues facing Marion families: colic that keeps everyone awake, reflux that makes feeding difficult, and latching problems that frustrate both baby and mother. We also help with less obvious issues like torticollis, plagiocephaly, and developmental delays.
Marion’s busy families appreciate that our treatments are quick but thorough. Most appointments take 15-20 minutes, making it easy to fit into your schedule even with a fussy baby.
We coordinate with your pediatrician and respect your family’s healthcare choices. Our goal is to complement your baby’s overall care, not replace it.
Absolutely. Pediatric chiropractic care has been used safely for over 100 years. Our techniques are specifically modified for infants, using pressure so gentle it’s comparable to checking the ripeness of fruit.
Research consistently shows pediatric chiropractic care is among the safest healthcare options available for children. There are no drugs, no invasive procedures, and no harmful side effects.
We use only the gentlest techniques, and many babies actually relax or fall asleep during treatment. We never use the same force or techniques used on adults.
Most parents notice improvements within the first few visits, often after just one session. Research shows that 67% of babies with colic cry less after chiropractic care, compared to only 38% who improve with anti-gas medications.
However, every baby is different. Some see dramatic changes immediately, while others improve gradually over several visits. Factors like birth trauma, how long symptoms have been present, and your baby’s overall health all influence recovery time.
We typically recommend starting with 2-3 visits per week for the first two weeks, then adjusting based on your baby’s response. Most families see significant improvement within two weeks of starting care.
Yes. Research shows that 9 out of 10 infants with reflux experience significant improvement with chiropractic care. The gentle adjustments help restore proper nervous system function, which directly affects digestion and the muscles that keep stomach contents down.
Many feeding issues stem from spinal restrictions that occur during birth. These restrictions can affect your baby’s ability to turn their head, open their mouth properly, or coordinate sucking and swallowing.
Our care addresses both the mechanical restrictions and the nervous system interference that contribute to reflux and feeding difficulties. Many mothers report easier breastfeeding and less spit-up after just a few treatments.
We help with the full spectrum of common infant issues: colic, reflux, difficulty sleeping, breastfeeding problems, ear infections, constipation, and excessive crying. We also address less obvious problems like torticollis, plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome), and developmental delays.
For older children, we treat issues related to posture, sports injuries, growing pains, and behavioral concerns that may have a physical component. Many parents are surprised to learn that spinal health affects everything from immune function to attention span.
Each child receives individualized care based on their specific needs and developmental stage. We work with children from birth through their teenage years, adjusting our techniques as they grow.
Common signs include difficulty sleeping, excessive crying (especially if it seems worse at certain times), feeding problems, frequent spit-up, arching of the back, or favoring one side when turning their head. Even babies who seem “fine” can benefit from a spinal checkup, especially after difficult births.
Birth itself is traumatic for babies. Even uncomplicated deliveries put significant stress on a newborn’s spine and nervous system. C-sections, forceps deliveries, or long labors increase the likelihood of spinal restrictions.
Many parents wish they’d brought their babies in sooner once they see how much more comfortable and content their children become. There’s no harm in having your baby checked, even if you’re not sure they need care.
Absolutely. We believe in collaborative care and encourage open communication with your pediatrician and other healthcare providers. We’re happy to provide reports of your baby’s progress and coordinate treatment plans.
Many pediatricians in the Marion area are familiar with our work and refer patients to us, especially for issues like colic and reflux where traditional medical options are limited. We respect your family’s healthcare choices and work within your existing care team.
If your baby is taking medications or receiving other treatments, we’ll adjust our approach accordingly. Our goal is to complement your baby’s overall healthcare, not replace it. We want what’s best for your child, and that often means working together with other providers.
