Chiropractic
June 7th, 2011
Ashley Chiropractic has grown rapidly in the birthing community. Our focus on pregnancy, women, and children and our successes have been innumerable. The responses of our patients have caused many midwives, OB/GYN’s, and other birth professionals to refer pregnant women, babies, and children to us for specific care including websters technique and activator methods along with many others.
Maternity Care/Infant Care:
As a female chiropractor and mom myself , I know how important this prenatal time is and I’m very sensitive to the issues that arise. Mainstream medicine considers discomfort in pregnancy and colic in babies to be “normal”. However, they are not normal and can be largely alleviated by chiropractic and soft tissue techniques. With pregnant moms I mix gentle prenatal chiropractic, websters technique, and muscle and energy work. With infants I use soft tissue techniques with gentle pediatric adjustments. The birthing process itself is often traumatic for their little bodies and all newborn babies benefit from at least one pediatric chiropractic treatment. Many Midwives and OB/GYN’s refer prenatal chiropractic patients to the office when the baby is not in the optimal position for labor such as breech presentation to have the websters technique peformed before birth.
Women’s Health:
Again, as a female chiropractor I put special emphasis on getting a full picture of your health as a woman, realizing that neck and/or back pain can be symptoms of deeper more chronic patterns. Pelvic imbalances, intestinal health, emotional stress, past traumas, anxiety, hormonal changes, and/or daily routines can greatly influence health. We design a tailor made Chiropractic program just for you that addresses any and all of these areas and works toward your overall goals.
Pediatric Health:
Being a kid can be rough on the body. Growing up is hard work and joint injuries are common. Often kids have health issues that we would not know without taking them to the pediatric chiropractor. These issues can affect them seriously later in life. Falls and bonks, growth spurts, repetitive stress injuries (soccer, dance, football, etc), chronic ear infections, colic, infant acid reflux, learning difficulties, sleeping difficulties, stress from life, ADD, headaches, orthodontic/dental work, digestive problems, sensory integration problems, and failure to thrive are commonly seen in the pediatric chiropractic office.
Athletes:
Being active as a child or adult is beneficial for your body. It allows your joints to stay in motion, your muscles to be conditioned and strengthened, your metabolism to remain high, and your overall systems to function more efficiently. Repetitive injuries whether small or great cause misalignments of your joints, muscle and ligament tears, as well as other injuries. It is beneficial for all athletes to have regular athletic chiropractic care in order to minimize injuries as well as create an optimally functioning mind and body for a competitive advantage. We see patients in all athletic fields including football, soccer, swimming, golf, wrestling, body-building, dance, gymnastics, cheer-leading, tennis, etc.
General Chiropractic:
My general chirorpactic work includes spinal and extremity adjustments, muscle work, physical rehabilitation, stretching exercises, massage, nutritional response testing and counseling, hormonal testing and counseling. The Chiropractic Techniques that I most commonly use are Thompson Drop Technique, Ativator Methods, Websters Technique, and Palmer Method. Common conditions include; sciatica, whiplash, TMJ, neck and back pain, personal injury accidents, slips and falls, shoulder/arm/hand pain, hip/knee/ankle pain, balance problems, dizziness, headaches, and the list goes on.
