Chiropractic Treatment in Costa Mesa Aided New Mom Regain Health From C-Section
I delivered my second child via caesarean-section. However, I begin to experience shoulder, neck, and head pain after she was born. I also developed bruises on my abdomen and pain in my lower back. Orange County Chiropractor
My older son, Joseph was not able to understand why I suddenly cannot pick him up, carry him around, or even play with him down on the floor. I just cannot stand the pain.
As the pain persists, I decided to seek a chiropractor for an immediate treatment since I had visited a chiropractor several years ago where I used to live. Then I got in touch with Great Life Chiropractic In Costa Mesa for my first scheduled appointment.
I felt totally at ease during my consultation with Dr. Candice McCowin, DC because she genuinely seemed interested in why I was there. She asked about the birth, about my lifestyle, my eating habits, and sleeping habits. On that day, it already seemed she was dealing with me as a whole person instead of the symptoms that have brought me there.
The first adjustment was a success! The pain in my shoulder, neck, and head immediately subsided. Although I expect for relapse because of what I have gone through with the pregnancy and c-section. The best thing to do is to keep the spine maintained over time since it was a matter of the vertebral sublaxations (spinal imbalance putting pressure on the nervous system) and still being present.
It only took a couple of treatments for me to realize how much my young family could benefit from chiropractic care. Then I brought along my new baby, Sophia to see Dr. McCowin. My main concern was over what she might have gone through during the c-section. Also, she had this frequent spitting up, which I remember not seeing on my son when he was a baby.
Baby Sophia began to keep milk down without the excessive spitting up, which was a big relief after following her treatments. After a year since Joseph underwent Dr. McCowin’s care, the results have been impressive. He goes right to sleep at night and we no longer deal with constipation.
My only regret is not finding Great Life Chiropractic sooner. I have read studies on how easy it would be for women to recover from pregnancy and birth after establishing chiropractic care instead of waiting to begin after delivery. Of course, like the old saying goes, “Better late than never.” Chiropractic Treatment in Orange County
