From Colic and No Sleep, To Happy Baby and Mama
When Christy first called us, she wasn’t sure about chiropractic - but she was desperate! Read her story about how neuro-tonal chiropractic care changed her mental health, postpartum experience, and life!
“Colic parents, this one’s for you: Very early one morning, I had finally hit my breaking point with my colic baby. I desperately emailed Apex beggingggg for my daughter to be seen. To my surprise, they called within 10 minutes and Kirsten carved out an appointment before opening hours just so our baby could be evaluated that same morning. Praise godddd. We had been keeping a sleep log of night wakings: 14. Yes…fourteen times per night. She was 6 months old. I’ll let you imagine how those first 6 months were going before Apex intervened.
Leaving the house felt impossible. The anxiety of wrangling my then-2-year-old while putting a baby who screamed the SECOND she touched the car seat made even short trips miserable. The screaming was nonstop. From point A to point B. Yet we somehow made it to Apex that morning. I was hanging on by a THREAD. They did an evaluation and came up with a treatment plan. (There’s toys in every room which made bringing my 2 year old easier.) She started with 3-4x adjustments per week. First thing we noticed? She…slept…in the car seat…SLEPT?! I couldn’t believe it. This had to be a coincidence…Wrong. Since being adjusted, no more discomfort in her seat and most importantly, no longer ball and chained to the angry baby dictator outside of the house. In that first month her night wakings went from 14 down to 8. Over the course of our 3 month care plan, we got her wakings down to 3 per night. They have an app that allows you to book, reschedule or cancel appointments without the hassle of calling. That was soo helpful.
Looking back, another major transformation wasn’t just in my daughter, but the freedom I gained with having a happier baby. My mental health improved in ways that felt impossible when we were deep in colic hell. Even going to appointments by myself which was impossible before. It still makes me emotional. So if you’re reading this, desperately, with tears in your eyes paired with sleep deprivation, I’ve been there. You will be met with compassion and a team that cares about you.
I absolutely recommend Apex not only for your colic baby, but for parents too. We will always be thankful to Kirsten, Jared, Karyn, and Avery for guiding us through one of the hardest seasons of our lives. We love you guys, thank you.”
We absolutely love partnering with families so that they aren’t just surviving - but thriving!
