Dr. Sweet Asks some important questions of interest to Lacey residents - Chiropractor Lacey Dr. Sweet Asks...

Can babies with colic be helped with chiropractic?
It's probably one of the times a parent feels the most helpless. But based on the research, chiropractic and colic relief appear to go hand in glove. With success rates in the mid-90% range, more and more Lacey parents are seeing a chiropractor. If you have a baby with colic learn how chiropractic may help.
Are aches and pains good or bad?
While aches or pains may be unpleasant, they're merely warning signs. As a Lacey chiropractor, I see this all the time. The pain is not the problem! It just means a limitation has been reached and something needs to change. That's when we get to work correcting the underlying cause.
