 Adjustments for babies
On Wednesday morning Dr. Brown gave presentations on performance & safety to groups of employees of the City of Rock Hill. Held in two sessions to accommodate both groups, the presentations focused on preventing injuries. A study of the costs and other impacts of injuries reveals that the leading experts in the field all seem to agree that the best way to avoid injury is to begin with a healthy body, because weakened individuals are far more prone to injury. This led us to a discussion of the importance of adjustments, beginning in early childhood. Building a strong healthy body is no accident (pun intended); it’s built by living a healthy lifestyle, which begins in infancy. This is why we often encourage pregnant women to get regular adjustments during pregnancy and after the baby is born to make a stop here at the chiropractor their first stop on the way home. That way the new mom can get her adjustment after doing some of the hardest work of her life, and of equal importance, we can check the new baby for subluxations. It's not uncommon for the delicate neck of a baby to be subluxated by the forces put on the baby's head and neck during the birth process. There's no better time to get it checked than right away. Unfortunately obstetricians and pediatricians lack the training to evaluate the baby for vertebral subluxation, so it's important for new parents to learn this and bring the baby in as soon as possible. As free public service we welcome speaking invitations and will accept invitations to speak before your group or organization without charge. To see a list of topics that D. Brown has recently presented before other groups, please click the link below: http://www.youneedchiro.com/joomla/dr-brown-as-a-guest-speaker

Back to School - Time for an adjustmentBack to school time is upon us. The kids are falling into their routine, teachers have gotten ready for their return and we parents have worked hard to prepare our children to get the most out of their education by getting the clothes, shoes, backpacks and school supplies, and the like.
We know that they also need to be ready physically, to learn and perform at their highest level. That’s why a visit to the chiropractor is so important at this time of year. A spinal adjustment is one of the few things that enhances kid’s health naturally and its fun for them to go see the chiropractor.
If your kids haven't been checked by the chiropractor before returning to school, don't worry. It's not too late for the kids to get checked and adjusted if they need it. Back to School Saturday Morning. On August 21st, as a community service we offerred a Saturday morning "visit to the chiropractor." School-age kids were given the opporunity for a back to school chiropractic spinal exam and those who needed it got an adjustment. It was a fun event for us and the kids. Ordinary doctors lack the training to detect spinal subluxationThousands of children receive the benefits of chiropractic care, but thousands of others do not have the advantages chiropractic offers kids because their parents don't know that all children should be checked by the family chiropractor. Making matters worse, ordinary doctors lack understanding about this most important part of a child's preventive health needs. Typical of the problem is the well-meaning pediatrician who appears on the following television news clip. Unfortunately ordinary doctors are not trained to understand that chiropractic for children is not only safe, but essential for their good health. It is interesting to see in this clip how the mother learned the value of an adjustment while the doctor only spread fear and misinformation: Click here to see this enlightening clip on an NBC affiliate.
