KST A to Z

Reflux in infant and baby

John Foley, DC

Bellmawr, New Jersey

Recently I had two cases of babies diagnosed by their pediatrician with gastro-esophageal reflux disease. The symptoms were frequent vomiting with lack of sleep. Both were on baby Zantac.

One was a five-month-old female, with vomiting at night with interrupted sleep. I adjusted C5, T5, T6 and sacrum. After two adjustments, all symptoms subsided, and patient is off Zantac.

The other was a three-month-old female with projectile vomiting (controlled by high doses of Zantac, but she still vomited), severe lack of sleep and difficult bowel movements.

I adjusted sphenoid and occiput and almost immediately this baby went into a deep, long sleep, awoke and had a very large, leaky, excessive bowel movement.

She continued a day of retracing with vomiting then everything nicely settled down and she is free from any more reflux symptoms.
