Pregnancy and pediatric care in Battle Creek and Galesburg.
Adjusting an expecting mother or a small child is gentle and routine here. If you are wondering whether it is safe or right for your family, here is a plain answer.
Care that fits the smallest patients
Adjusting a newborn looks almost nothing like what you might picture. It is a light touch, about the pressure you would use to check a ripe tomato, aimed at helping a small body move and settle the way it should. Parents bring children in for all sorts of reasons, and many simply want a gentle check as their kids grow.
For expecting mothers, chiropractic care is about comfort and movement as the body changes. A growing belly shifts posture and loads the low back and hips, and gentle adjusting can ease that strain through the pregnancy.
How we approach family care at Myers Chiropractic
We adapt everything to the person on the table. For pregnancy we use techniques and positioning that keep mom comfortable. For children we use the lightest effective touch and go at the child's pace. Dr. Rachelle Myers and Dr. Emily Leatherman are often the doctors families ask for, and any of our doctors can help.
Nothing is done without explaining it to you first, and you are never pushed toward a long schedule of visits.
