ST. LOUIS — It is a trend found across social media: chiropractic care for babies. But this popular health hack is nothing new.
“When I was growing up, I had an uncle who was a chiropractor, so I have been getting adjusted since I was a newborn,” says Dr. Danielle Fishel, Owner of the Wellness CoFishel Chiropractic.
In 1986, the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association was established. Now considered the most sought out chiropractic pediatric association in the world, you can find nearly 9,000 members. Dr. Danielle Fishel opened Fishel Chiropractic in 2018 with a focus on the entire family!
Dr. Fishel is Webster Technique Certified, an adjusting technique for pregnant women and has additional education in treating, and adjusting children. For her, she believes in finding healing for the entire family.
“We are not twisting and popping,” says Dr. Fishel.
Most commonly, parents come to Dr. Fishel with breastfeeding difficulties, flat head syndrome, digestive issues, earaches and infections, asthma and more!
“The pressure I use when adjusting is the pressure I would use to check the ripeness of a tomato,” says Dr. Fishel.
