Joy,
What kind of results have you seen with Chiropractric treatment for your clients in regards to reflux?

>I am all for trying to find the cause of reflux 
> in babies before drugging them. I suggest mothers investigate food 
> intolerances and also consider an assessment from a chiropractor or 
> osteopath, to check for misalignment in the neck region, especially 
> if the baby was delivered by some method where he was *pulled* out 
> rather than pushed. This includes caesarean, forceps and vacuum, but 
> could also include hands pulling the baby in a normal vaginal 
> delivery, especially if pressure is applied as the baby turns. 
> Misalignment in the neck vertebrae can affect the vagus nerve, which 
> in turn can affect the functioning of the end organs of the vagus, 
> namely the digestive tract.
