Colic and Excessive Crying: Finding Relief for Your Baby

Tiny baby As a parent of a baby with colic or excessive crying, you’re likely feeling exhausted, frustrated, and maybe even a bit helpless. At Crane Chiropractic & Applied Kinesiology, we understand the challenges you’re facing, and we’re here to offer support and gentle, natural solutions for your little one.

Understanding Colic

Colic is a common condition affecting many infants, typically characterized by intense crying episodes lasting for 3 hours or more, occurring at least 3 days a week, and persisting for 3 weeks or longer. While the exact cause of colic remains a mystery, several factors may contribute, including digestive system development, overstimulation, nervous system immaturity, and food sensitivities.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

At Crane Chiropractic & Applied Kinesiology, we offer a gentle, non-invasive approach to treating colic and excessive crying. Our experienced chiropractors use specialized techniques tailored for infants to identify areas of tension or misalignment in your baby’s spine and nervous system. We then perform gentle adjustments to restore proper alignment and promote overall health and well-being.

Many parents have found that chiropractic care provides significant relief for their colicky babies. Often, this results in reduced crying episodes, improved sleep patterns, better feeding habits, and increased comfort and contentment for the infant.
