Are Chiropractors good for babies like Cranial Osteopaths?

Anyone have any experience of Chiropractors treating babies? Its just that theres no Osteopaths where we live but lots of Chiropractors..

Hi nomorechoc, DS2 was treated by a chiropractor from 3 weeks old - he was very colicky and constipated from birth and literally cried all day. The chiropractor discoverd that he had a trapped neck from a very fast ventouse delivery and he was comfort sucking to relieve the pain in his neck which was causing him to overfeed hence the colic. 3 treatments in and he was like a different baby. Would definitely recommend it, but try to find someone who specialises in the treatment of babies. The girl we see is a pregnancy/post natal expert. Hope this helps [smile}
