"Please let Dr. Jensen know that we had an excellent experience today. Our baby was so relaxed and calm after the treatment. He loved it."
Dr. Jensen has been working with infants and children for the past 26 years. She is part of the diplomate program for Chiropractic Pediatrics through Palmer College and the ICA.
Some of the most common conditions of infancy are reflux, colic, constipation and torticollis. All are related to subluxation of the skull and upper cervical vertebrae, most commonly related to the birth process. Other conditions of childhood that respond well to Chiropractic care are chronic ear infections, headaches, sports injuries, scoliosis, bed-wetting, ADHD.
Dr. Jensen is certified in the Webster Technique used primarily in the pregnant patient. The patients presenting for treatment using this technique are typically in their 34-37th week of pregnancy and their baby is in the breech position. However, being under care throughout the pregnancy often avoids the issue of a breech presentation entirely. The treatment is gentle and non-invasive. Chiropractic care is safe during the entire pre-natal period from conception to delivery.
