Hello, Chiropractic care is very safe for babies. I have been adjusting the spines of all three of my children since they were born. Adjustments for infants and babies is very different from adjustments to adults. The spine is so flexible that very gentle treatment is all that's needed. Warmest Regards, Kevin J. McDermott, D.C.
