Dr. Karin Nealon, DC

Dr Karin is on medical leave until August 15. When she returns, only babies, kids, and adult craniosacral therapy will be the services offered at that time until further notice.

Always a great day when I get to meet the baby I have been working with since conception. ♥️.

Everyday I get to go to a job I love.

Finally! Something I have known for 15yrs, but scientific evidence is always nice. Craniosacral works on babies!

Effectiveness of craniosacral therapy in the treatment of infantile colic. A randomized controlled trial - PubMed Craniosacral therapy appears to be effective and safe for infantile colic by reducing the number of crying hours, the colic severity and increasing the total hours of sleep.

First day. Let the chaos begin.

This is why so many babies have dysfunction that is not caught by the primary care provider.

They have so little time to look at everything. I am so thankful I have the time to look at the details.

Human babies are different than cow babies

If you are a primary care doctor and you are focusing only on infant weight gain, and you ignore other symptoms of breast-feeding or bottlefeeding, you are doing a disservice to your families. Focusing just on the weight gain is what a farmer would do for a baby cow. Focusing on just weight gain for a human can ignore the detrimental effects of air ingestion, ni**le pain, ni**le trauma, a very fussy baby etc.

Be a doctor. Even farmers care for the welfare and quality of life for their livestock. We should do the same for babies.

This is the information I try to share in my practice with parents as much as possible. The US has put fear so much in parents, that they forget to follow what feels right.

American parents: Calm the eff down, co-sleeping isn’t always dangerous Parents, relax. Your infant can sleep in your bed, your toddler can share your dinner and your 1-year-old can amuse herself just fine. “[American] parents nowadays think, ‘Oh, my God, my baby isn’t…

So very thankful to celebrate my annual 29th with these amazing people.

Just this week, I will have treatment hours on Wednesday from 1-5pm
Otherwise I am totally booked up.

I get to make babies smile every day I get to work.

Finally got to making some art for the new office.
