Children’s health begins in pregnancy and birth! It is an honor to care for newborns and infants at Stephens Chiropractic and Wellness! Dr. Andrea uses specific, gentle adjustments, and has taken advanced classes on specific techniques for newborns and infants.

What can cause birth trauma for infants?

-Labor

-Pitocin

-Pain medications

-Restricted birthing positions

-Pulling and twisting during delivery

-Use of forceps or vacuum extraction-Cesarean delivery

Left uncorrected, this trauma continues to impact baby’s spinal growth and development, reducing the healthy function of the nervous system. This can cause many health challenges later in life that could easily have been prevented; nursing difficulties, sleep disturbances, and an inability to be soothed and settled are all potential signs of spinal nerve stress in infants.

THIS was really NEAT! At Stephens Chiropractic and Wellness, we have carried XYMOGEN all-natural Supplements for 12+ years! XYMOGEN is a family owned company located in Orlando, Florida. The ideas of trust and transparency are foundational to the company; XYMOGEN professional formulas are developed for quality and recommended levels of ingredients. When you reach for a XYMOGEN bottle, you’re reaching toward a healthier future. I was able to see the raw product, chemistry, testing, engineering, packaging all the way to the shipping! I personally use this company and have been recommending it to my family, friends and patients for years! I have always considered myself a “picky practitioner” and visiting the XYMOGEN Campus exceeded my expectations! -Dr. Andrea

Please let us know if you have any questions about XYMOGEN and Supplementation! Our bodies crave certain nutrients, and unfortunately our food system is lacking in essential nutrients.

In 1910, D.D. Palmer, the Founder of Chiropractic, stated that there were three underlying causes of subluxation, or nerve interference. He identified them as the 3 T’s: Thoughts, Trauma and Toxins. Today, these 3 T’s continue to wreak havoc on our bodies and contribute to many of the aches, pains and dysfunctions that we experience.

Expert Tip:

Thoughts: In our culture, we are constantly in a “fight or flight” sympathetic state. Be sure to utilize stress management: Epsom salt baths, prayer, social media breaks, adequate sleep, Acupuncture, time in nature and grounding. These will enhance your parasympathetic state, which is needed for a balanced nervous system (it decreases cortisol, our stress hormone).

Trauma: Pay attention to posture, micro traumas, and overuse of certain muscle groups. (please stretch and/or foam roll regularly!)

Toxins: Pay attention to what you are putting into your body, what you are eating, breathing and drinking; and what you are putting on your body. Regular detox is important! Sweat through exercise and infrared sauna use; proper hydration is also key in detoxing!

Regular Chiropractic Care is a great way to reset your nervous system and structure, often, which is very valuable in our busy, noisy, and toxic culture!

She will also we touring the cutting-edge Xymogen campus, meeting the team, and overlooking the enhancements, care and quality that is invested in each and every formula. Dr. Andrea has been recommending Xymogen formulas to her Patients for over 12 years! Stephens Chiropractic and Wellness will resume with regular business hours on Tuesday, October 29th. As always, we look forward to serving our Patients with the best HEALTHCARE possible!
We continue to keep Floridians in our prayers at this time.
