  Speaker 1: Time now for back to the basics and healthcare with
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: balance life chiropractic. And it's April and we ain't a
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: fooling How you doing doing good?
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Are you? John?
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Very very good? This is again I cannot believe that
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: it's already April. How did that happen?
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Like time just starts flying by.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: More and more When you get older, like I am,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: it gets quicker. So I don't know exactly why. But
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: I read a story about why that is, and I
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: don't know. It didn't make any sense to me. Maybe
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: I was just not comprehending. But today we're going to
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: talk about kids. Which kids are kind of cool, aren't.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: They talk about time going by fast? Yeah, I know
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: a lot of parents you have to say, like blinking,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: they go from a birth to eighteen.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and my daughter's getting married this summer. I remember
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: when she was born the other day, is what it
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: seems like? So exciting.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: It is exciting.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: But there is no age that's too young for chiropractic,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: and there's no age too old for chiropractic, So you
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: can literally be a chiropractic patient even as a newborn.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we do adjust, I know, Like there's chiropractors out
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: there that have adjusted their brand baby at like minutes old,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: as soon as they're out, they adjusted them. Most times,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: it's you know, within a few days or even a
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: few weeks. Especially when I tell moms, it's like, whenever
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: you are comfortable and wanting to get out of the
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: house and ready to get baby.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Checked out, and think about what they've just gone through.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I mean that that's a bit of trauma that will
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: never go through that same experience again, thank goodness. But
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: so that I could see why it would make sense
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: to get an adjustment there.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Right, A lot of people like, wait, why do babies
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: need an adjustment? What do they have going on? But yeah, exactly.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Birth is very hard on mom. It is also very
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: hard on those little babies, you know, regardless of how
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: they're born, if it's you know, kind of the normal birth,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: or if it's a C section any other type, it's
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: still a lot of pressure and forcing put on their
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: head and their neck. And what's the first thing they
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: tell you to do when you hold a baby.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: For me, They say, don't drop that baby.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: I mean that's a good one, yeah, but support their head,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: hold their head because their neck can't hold their head
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: up so it you know, it's even if we have
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: like assisted bursts with like forceps or vacuums or hands
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: or anything that that's putting even more twisting and pulling
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: on their necks. So we can actually get misalignments or
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: you'll hear me call them sublxations as well at birth
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: because of all of that force being applied there.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Now there's we spend most of our life after that
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: phase of our life because that's just at the very beginning.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: But we spent you know, eighteen years being a child,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: some of us even longer than that. But this this
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: is a good time for people to make the good
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: choices in life and the right decisions in life. And
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: that starts with health as well.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: It can start right from birth. You know, if we
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: can get babies adjusted right away, it's going to help
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: their nervous system to function at its one percent best
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: capacity and that's only going to help them with reaching
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: their developmental goals, you know, every couple of months as
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: they're growing in to their new body. And you know,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: the biggest things we see with babies especially is you know, eating,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: if they're collicky or burping or you know, reflux, a lot.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: It can really help with that. Or if they're not
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: sleeping very well, or they're you know, ky he always
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: waking up cranky, digestion if they haven't been very regular,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: or you notice days where they don't go to the
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: bathroom and then suddenly you have a blowout, you know,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: any type stuff like that. You know, those are the
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: biggest things with babies. You want to helm, eat, sleep
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: and poop.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: There you go, and and that's kind of life in general,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: but that's definitely what your baby.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that's kind of all they got go before
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: them and as well as.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: They don't have to worry about tax, doesn't other.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Things you know of note like toward a cullis. If
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: you notice they're always kind of holding their head in
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: one direction, or they don't want to turn their head,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: or maybe they are a little late in some of
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: those developmental milestones, or they're having a hard time with
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: like tummy time or something like that. Those can be
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: indicators of needing an adjustment in their neck because things
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: aren't moving quite like they should.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And you want that alignment. So your brain is communicating
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: with the whole body and it's not having any issues
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: getting there and back because again, that's going to help
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: in every way you can imagine definitely.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: And as they're developing, their cervical, thorastic and lumbar curve
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: start developing. So that tummy time where they're lifting their
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: head up, working on that headstrength, that's developing their neck developmentally,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: and their curve in their neck. You know, as they're
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: getting into crawling, that's going to develop that lumbar curve.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: So those are all important steps to make sure that
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: your baby is going through.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: So if somebody either has or knows somebody that has
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: a new baby or an old baby. I don't know
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: how many old babies there are, but if somebody has
• 4:28
