8-Month-Old Child’s Constipation Resolves after Chiropractic Care, Report Says

May 15, 2016 – – A case report discusses the outcomes of an 8-month-old male patient who presented for chiropractic care with constipation, as published in the Journal of Pediatric, Maternal & Family Health.

Upland Chiropractor Dr. Tymothy Flory, D.C., stated, “An 8-month-old baby boy was presented with a chief complaint of constipation. At initial consultation, the infant had not made a bowel movement for five days. Increased fluid intake was unsuccessful in resolving his problem.”

The patient was cared for, after a thorough examination, by gently correcting the structural shift present in his spine. Within a short period of his first adjustment, the infant proceeded to have a very large bowel movement while sitting in his car seat. Two hours later additional bowel movements occurred. The mother also stated that her child was of a much happier disposition.

“This case report supports evidence-informed practice in the care of patients through the detection and removal of spinal subluxations and its concomitant salutary effects,” said Dr. Flory.
