Your baby can experience the comfort they deserve. Many infants show improvement after just one gentle adjustment, with 9 out of 10 babies experiencing significant relief from reflux, colic, and feeding difficulties.
No more constant spitting up. No more screaming when you lay them down. No more wondering if you’re doing something wrong.
When your child’s nervous system functions properly, their body can do what it’s designed to do—digest food comfortably, sleep peacefully, and grow without unnecessary stress.
Dr. Paul Roses originally wanted to be a pediatrician to help as many children as possible. That same heart for children’s health drives everything we do today.
With advanced training in pediatric chiropractic techniques, Dr. Roses understands that your baby isn’t trying to be difficult—their body is trying to tell you something. We’ve been helping Waverly families discover what that something is for years.
Chiropractors have provided safe, natural care for children for over 100 years. We combine this time-tested approach with state-of-the-art techniques that have never been more precise or gentle.
Your first visit starts with understanding your child’s unique situation. Dr. Roses will ask about birth history, current symptoms, and what you’ve already tried.
Next comes a gentle examination using pressure lighter than checking a tomato for ripeness. We’ll assess spinal alignment and nervous system function to identify areas of tension or interference.
Treatment involves incredibly gentle adjustments—no twisting, cracking, or popping. Many babies actually relax during the process. You’ll typically see changes within the first few visits, though every child responds at their own pace.

Your child gets care specifically designed for their developing body. We address the root cause—nervous system interference that often starts during birth—rather than just managing symptoms.
This approach helps with more than just obvious discomfort. Waverly families often see improvements in sleep patterns, immune function, and even seemingly unrelated issues like ear infections or behavioral challenges.
Each treatment plan is tailored to your child’s specific needs and developmental stage. Whether you’re dealing with a fussy newborn or a school-age child with posture issues, the care adapts to support healthy growth and function.
Pediatric chiropractic care is among the safest forms of healthcare available for children when performed by a trained practitioner. The pressure used on infants is incredibly gentle—about the same force you’d use to check if fruit is ripe.
We use specialized techniques designed specifically for babies’ delicate anatomy. There are no harmful medications, no invasive procedures, and no dangerous side effects.
Research consistently shows that pediatric chiropractic care is both safe and effective for newborns and infants when provided by properly trained chiropractors.
Many babies show improvement after their first adjustment, though every child responds differently. Research indicates that 9 out of 10 infants experience significant improvement in reflux symptoms with chiropractic care.
Some families notice changes immediately—better sleep that first night or less fussiness during feeding. Others see gradual improvement over the first few visits.
Case studies show that babies with complex issues like severe reflux, colic, and sleep problems often achieve full resolution within three months of consistent care. Your child’s timeline depends on their specific situation and how long the issues have been present.
Chiropractic care addresses the underlying nervous system interference that contributes to many childhood health challenges. This includes obvious issues like colic, reflux, constipation, and feeding difficulties.
But you might be surprised by other improvements families report: better sleep, fewer ear infections, improved immune function, and even behavioral changes. When the nervous system functions properly, the body can address multiple issues naturally.
We commonly help with birth trauma effects, torticollis, breastfeeding difficulties, and developmental challenges that stem from spinal misalignment or nervous system stress.
Most pediatricians receive limited training in chiropractic care and may not be familiar with its benefits for infants. They’re often taught to manage symptoms with medication or the “wait and see” approach.
However, many pediatricians are becoming more open to chiropractic care as research demonstrates its safety and effectiveness. Some even refer patients directly to qualified pediatric chiropractors.
The key is finding practitioners specifically trained in pediatric techniques. We work collaboratively with your child’s healthcare team to ensure comprehensive care that addresses root causes, not just symptoms.
Pediatric chiropractic requires specialized training and completely different techniques. The pressure used on babies is extraordinarily gentle—nothing like adult adjustments you might be familiar with.
We use light-touch methods, sustained contact techniques, and instrument-assisted approaches designed specifically for developing spines and nervous systems. There’s no forceful manipulation or dramatic movements.
The focus is on removing interference that prevents the child’s body from functioning naturally. Because children’s bodies are still developing, they often respond more quickly and completely than adults to gentle corrections.
Your first appointment focuses on understanding your child’s complete health picture. Dr. Roses will discuss pregnancy, birth experience, current symptoms, and your family’s health history.
The examination is incredibly gentle and often resembles a massage more than traditional medical examination. We’ll assess spinal alignment, nervous system function, and areas of tension or restriction.
If treatment is appropriate that day, it will be very brief and gentle. Many babies actually fall asleep during their adjustment. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of what’s happening and a plan moving forward that makes sense for your family.
