Baby and Mom’s Tough Beginning Eased with Chiropractic Care

Fussy Baby | Stressful Birth

"I had my third daughter earlier this year, February 2nd of 2026. My natural birth went great and there were no complications other than my daughter being on the smaller side(5lb 13oz)but otherwise healthy. I started to notice after just a few days that she seemed pretty fussy and uncomfortable when she wasn't sleeping. During the day, I could maybe lay her down on the ground or in a baby bouncer for a max of 10min before she would start to cry. She was fed, burped, changed, etc. but would still be upset., so I knew something was wrong. I finally took her in when she was about 7 weeks old and Dr. Torrie immediately noticed how tense she was. She struggled to extend and straighten out her body. We scheduled 3 visits a week for a month to start off and that helped tremendously! I was able to lay her down unbothered for 20-30min and that gradually increased the more sessions we did. My daughter also had a separate food sensitivity issue that was causing discomfort, but after visiting Dr. Torrie, 90% of her fussiness went away. She finally started smiling more and became a happier baby overall."

"
We are big fans of Dr. Tori and the whole staff. The space is family friendly and Dr. Tori is so great with kids, so even when bringing my 4 kids in solo to all get adjusted I don’t feel overwhelmed. I also can’t recommend enough for parents to bring their newborns in! Keeping their bodies aligned supports a smooth adjustment to the outside world (healthy digestion and nervous system) and Dr Tori is so gentle and sweet with babes! Everyone needs a good chiropractor in their lives 🤍
