Moms
Does pain get in the way of your work, your sleep or prevent your from enjoying time with your kids? Do you long for a body that can keep up with your three year old while wearing your infant? Do you want to have the ability to play soccer with your 10 year old without feeling achy and sore for days afterwards? Do you feel like you’re not as present as you could be?
As mamas, we spend so much time caring for and worrying about our kids that we often forget to care for ourselves. If you’re not taking care of you, then you’re not going to be the best mom you can be for your kids. If you want to feel supported and uplifted, then you’ve found the right place
Adults of all Ages
No matter what stage of life you are in, or what your level of wellness is, chiropractic care is one of the best ways to ensure that you are maintaining your optimum structural integrity and functional capacity by having a healthy spine and nervous system.
Subluxations are a joint or motion segment dysfunction that can have a negative impact on your neurological and/or biomechanical integrity. Toxins, trauma and thoughts are the three main culprits leading to subluxation, and subluxation can put a lot of neurological and physiological stress on the body's ability to function effectively.
Overtaxing ourselves on a regular basis, not taking care of our physical condition and mishandling the stresses of daily life can wreak havoc on our mind and body-the best we can do is make sure that our system is always up for the challenge of handling these stressors so that we don't set ourselves up for mental unrest, unrelenting pain or chronic illness.
Kids
Chiropractic for kids is a gentle, safe and effective way to keep your child healthy and out of pain.
On the surface? It’s about keeping the spine mobile and aligned. But really, It’s about keeping your child’s nervous system functioning at 100% so that they can enjoy being a kid.
You want what’s best for your children, and so do we. We believe that health care extends beyond treating infections and injuries. We love working with families who believe that feeling great and being well is a better approach to healthcare than being “not sick.” We base our practice on the idea that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Compensation patterns that develop in childhood can lead to pain and dysfunction in adulthood.
Whether your kid is a high school track star or a newly walking toddler, chiropractic care can ensure that their body is working at it’s fullest potential.
Infants
Newborns and infants may not seem like the likely candidates for chiropractic care, but they experience several traumas within the first few months of their lives that can leave them subluxated. The mechanical forces of compression and traction during the birth process cause injury in approximately 7 of 1000 live births. This does not account for an unknown number of babies that experience subclinical trauma, which can lead to symptoms and difficulty later on in life.
As a chiropractor with advanced training in pediatrics, Dr. Ramirez will do a thorough exam and analysis of your newborn. If there is any indication of subluxation (dysfunction of a joint complex accompanied by impairment of the nervous system), it will be addressed through a gentle, specific chiropractic adjustment. Dr. Ramirez will also help you track your child's developmental milestones, growth, and address any concerns or questions you may have about your child's diet, activity or behavior.
Your baby deserves an optimum start in life, and a clear and fully functioning nervous system is one of the most important ways you can allow them that. Fort Valley Family Chiropractic is here for you!
