How I became the "poop doctor": In the same week, I saw an eight-month-old boy and a three-year-old boy. The eight-month-old had not had a BM in three days, very little sleep, minimal napping, and lots of crying.

OD told me to adjust bilateral sphenoids, C1, T7, and the ileocecal valve. Within three hours, the mother called telling me there's poop 'everywhere.' The next day she calls and says he's been sleeping, napping, and there's no more fussy crying.

The three-year-old was in a hospital isolation room with rotavirus for six days, listless, moody, on IV. The OD told me to adjust a lot of things and come back the next morning. The next day he was a totally different child - smiling, talkative, playing a video game. He was released later that afternoon and had his first BM when they got home.
