Pediatric Chiropractic in Larchmont
Your baby’s entry into the world is incredible, but it’s not always gentle. Even the smoothest delivery can create tension in their tiny spine and nervous system. At The Family Chiropractic Office, Dr. Henry Cohen has spent over four decades helping infants and children start life in balance, using gentle, specialized techniques that support healthy development from day one.
Many parents bring their little ones to our practice for relief from colic, digestive discomfort, or trouble sleeping. Our chiropractor carefully examines every baby, often finding tension between the shoulder blades where nerves connect to the stomach and digestive system. By gently releasing that tension, we help the body function the way it should, allowing your infant to feel more comfortable and at ease.
Natural Relief for Your Baby’s Discomfort
Colic is one of the most common reasons parents seek our help, and most babies find relief within just a few visits, often in less than a week. Our chiropractor focuses on the areas where nerve signals travel to the stomach, helping the valve open properly so gas doesn’t collect and cause discomfort. This gentle approach addresses the root of the issue, not just the symptoms.
Our pediatric chiropractic care also supports infants and children experiencing:
- Digestive concerns and feeding difficulties
- Frequent colds or weakened immune response
- Tension or stiffness in the neck and back
- Developmental milestones like crawling and walking
Supporting Healthy Growth at Every Stage
We recommend gentle checkups at key milestones—when your baby lifts their head, sits up, or starts crawling. These are perfect times for a quick, gentle evaluation to make sure your child’s spine and hips are ready for the next stage. Dr. Cohen encourages parents to let babies crawl as much as possible and never rush walking before their bodies are truly ready.
A Gentle, Comforting Experience
Our chiropractor uses age-appropriate techniques, and if your child is nervous, they can accompany you to your appointment to help them feel more comfortable. Adjustments are often done while babies rest on a parent or are cradled in their arms.
