You know something isn’t right when your baby spits up constantly, arches their back, or screams every time you lay them down. The truth is, babies don’t just “grow out of” tension patterns—they grow around them.
Research shows that 9 out of 10 infants experience significant improvement with gentle chiropractic care for reflux symptoms. Many parents see changes after just one visit, especially when nervous system stress is the root cause.
Your baby isn’t trying to be difficult. Their body is trying to tell you they need help, and we’re here to listen.
Dr. Paul Roses originally wanted to be a pediatrician to help as many children as possible. That passion led him to chiropractic care, where he discovered he could make an even bigger impact on young lives through natural healing.
Chiropractors have been providing safe, gentle care for children for more than a century. At Roses Chiropractic, families throughout West End trust us because we understand that your baby’s comfort is your peace of mind.
We’ve served the local community for years, helping parents navigate those overwhelming early months with confidence instead of constant worry.
First, we listen. You know your baby better than anyone, and we want to understand exactly what you’re experiencing at home—the sleepless nights, the feeding struggles, the constant worry.
Next, we perform a gentle examination using techniques lighter than checking a tomato for ripeness. We look for tension patterns that may have developed during birth or early development that could be affecting your baby’s nervous system.
Then we create a personalized care plan. Some babies need just a few visits, while others benefit from ongoing support as they grow. We’ll explain everything clearly so you can make the best decision for your family. Most importantly, we work at your baby’s pace—no rushing, no pressure, just understanding.

Every adjustment is specifically designed for your baby’s delicate anatomy. We use gentle pressure—often lighter than a fingertip touch—to help their nervous system function properly.
West End families choose us because we address the root causes, not just symptoms. Birth trauma, even from normal deliveries, can create spinal misalignments that affect digestion, sleep, and comfort. Early intervention during those critical first months can prevent these patterns from becoming bigger problems later.
Our approach focuses on calming your baby’s nervous system so their body can do what it’s designed to do—digest properly, sleep peacefully, and develop normally. We also work alongside your pediatrician, lactation consultants, and other specialists to ensure nothing is overlooked in your baby’s care.
Absolutely. Pediatric chiropractic care has been safely practiced for over 100 years, with techniques specifically developed for infants and children.
The pressure we use for newborns is about the same as checking a tomato for ripeness—extremely gentle and designed for their delicate anatomy. Our adjustments are nothing like what adults receive. We use light-force techniques and specialized training to ensure your baby’s safety and comfort at every visit.
Studies consistently show that chiropractic care is safe and effective for infants when performed by trained professionals. We never use twisting, cracking, or popping motions with babies—just gentle, precise movements that help their nervous system function properly.
Many parents notice changes within the first few visits, though every baby responds differently to care.
Research indicates that many babies experience decreased reflux symptoms after just a single treatment, particularly when spinal misalignment is contributing to their discomfort. Some families see improvements in sleep patterns and fussiness within days, while others need a few weeks of consistent care.
The key is addressing the underlying nervous system stress rather than just managing symptoms. When we help your baby’s body communicate properly between the brain and digestive system, natural healing can occur. We’ll monitor your baby’s progress closely and adjust our approach based on how they respond.
We commonly help babies with colic, reflux, feeding difficulties, sleep problems, and excessive crying—often signs of nervous system stress.
Many parents are surprised to learn that issues like constipation, ear infections, and even some developmental delays can improve when spinal alignment is corrected. This happens because the nerves controlling digestion, immune function, and development all connect to the spine.
We also address tension patterns from birth trauma, whether from normal delivery, C-section, or prolonged labor. Even seemingly “easy” births can create subtle misalignments that affect how your baby feels and functions. The earlier we can identify and correct these patterns, the better your baby can develop naturally.
Most babies actually find chiropractic adjustments soothing and relaxing, often falling asleep during or immediately after treatment.
Our techniques are so gentle that many babies don’t even realize they’re being adjusted. We use light pressure and slow, careful movements that feel more like a gentle massage than traditional chiropractic care. Some babies may fuss initially if they’re already uncomfortable, but this typically decreases as their nervous system calms.
If your baby does become upset, we stop and give them time to settle before continuing. We never force an adjustment or work with a distressed baby. Our goal is to create a positive, calming experience that helps both you and your baby feel more comfortable and confident.
Treatment frequency depends on your baby’s specific needs and how they respond to care, but we always aim for the minimum effective dose.
Some babies with minor tension patterns may need only a few visits, while others dealing with more complex issues benefit from regular care during their first few months. We typically start with more frequent visits to establish positive changes, then space them out as your baby improves.
We’ll create a personalized care plan based on your baby’s examination findings and your family’s goals. As your baby grows and develops, their needs will change, and we adjust our recommendations accordingly. Our focus is always on supporting your baby’s natural development, not creating dependence on ongoing treatment.
Your first visit focuses on understanding your baby’s history and gently assessing their current condition—no surprises, just thorough, caring evaluation.
We’ll start by discussing your pregnancy, birth experience, and what you’ve noticed at home. This helps us understand potential sources of tension or stress in your baby’s system. Then we perform a gentle physical examination, checking for areas of restriction or imbalance in the spine and nervous system.
If we find areas that need attention, we may provide gentle treatment that same day, or recommend returning for care once we’ve fully analyzed our findings. We’ll explain everything we discover and answer all your questions before moving forward. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of what we found and how we can help your baby feel better.
