Chiropractic Care Infantile Colic

CA infantile colic affects normal infants, where the baby cries for three hours a day, at least three days a week, over the span of three weeks. There are some suggestions as to why infantile colic occurs. They include excessive gas, food intolerance/allergy, and abnormal peristalsis.

In a normal, growing infant, infantile colic can begin between the first and second week of life. After it reaches a peak at around week six, infantile colic ceases during the second to third month. As a matter of fact, 20-30% of infants are affected by infantile colic in San Jose. The infant usually starts to cry at the end of the day and usually at around the age when the parents start to really feel the sleep deprivation. Many parents end up feeling very discouraged and frustrated when their baby ceases to cry.

Your chiropractor, Dr Seth Lueders DC, will perform a thorough history and examination on your infant to determine the extent and severity of the infantile colic. Then, a personalized chiropractic treatment plan will be created for your baby.
