Actually, Gilda, the reason chiropractic care is recommended for newborns is because the birthing process is so stressful on the infant's body. Since newborns are so teeny, the slightest variation in the positioning of their vertebra can press on the internal organs, and cause digestive problems (such as spitting up constantly, heartburn, or dierreah(sp)). Also, by taking a child to a chiropractor when they're little, the parents are ensuring that the kid is growing up with a straight and aligned spine. I've known three or four people who had children with either constant spitting up or "colic" and after one visit to the chiropractor their kids were perfectly fine.
I know that a lot of people are skeptical of chiropractors, but my chiropractor is the reason I can get out of bed in the morning, and I'd recommend ANYONE to a chiropractor.
