Chiropractor Worked!

missyjg · October 2011

Kim and JNK, THANK YOU for recommending this!! B has had fluid in her ears and has suffered from chronic ear infections since she was 2 months old. We tried the chiropractor route. She has gone for several visits, and she loves it:) Well we went for her appointment at the ENT yesterday. No fluid, no infection and her ears look great. I'm so excited about this. I never would have even considered this unless you ladies recommended it. As of now, no tubes.

That's awesome! A friend of mine took her newborn (I think at a week or two) to a chiropractor to help with her latch issues. She would only latch on one side, and the chiropractor fixed that, too.

That is such great news!

That is awesome - and definitely something I would never think of. Glad it worked for her!

That is so awesome! My friend was on a show like 20/20 when her son was little (prob 9 years ago) for the same thing, they were showing how chiropractors could help with ear issues. So happy for you!

Wow I had no idea that they could do that! I'm glad it did the trick for B! I really have been meaning to go for years, and I think this pregnancy will actually force me to.

Apparently the tubes are horizontal when a child is born and get more of an angle to them as they grow. The horizontal tubes make it difficult for some kids to drain fluid leading to ear infections (this would be . They simply manipulate the neck and ears to allow for drainage. She is a mover and when we go she gets right up on the table and sits really still. It's too cute. I'm hoping it continues to work!
