In addition to his training in both chiropractic and naturopathic medicines, Dr. Chlebowski has gone on to study pediatrics through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. This additional 150 hours of training pertains exclusively to infants and pregnant mothers. Only a few chiropractors hold this designation in the state of Oregon.

Natural Medicine for Infants and Children:
This is truly Dr. Chlebowski's passion. He utilizes the best pediatric techniques from all forms of natural medicine to diagnose and treat children.Almost all health conditions can be treated with these safe, gentle, and natural methods.

Colic, bed wetting, ear infections, nightmares, autism, and ADHD have all responded well to the techniques he utilizes. Homeopathy, cranio-sacral therapy, nutrition, hydrotherapy, and flower essences are just a few of the powerful medicines he employs to clear many serious conditions.

Chiropractic for Infants and Children:
Many issues can arise from the birthing process. The movement through the birth canal can be a traumatic experience. A child can spend hours stuck in one position with their head extended or flexed. An infant may have an arm jammed above their head or in any number of positions. Imagine what this sort of trauma would do to an adult.

“An infant's spine grows 50% in length during the first year. Never again in a person's lifetime will they grow so rapidly. 65% of the total lifetime growth of the brain happens in the first year alone.”

A difficult delivery puts stress on an infant's immature nervous system. Caesarean sections, forceps delivery, and vacuum extractions also do the same. It is not uncommon for ear infections, asthma, or colic to result from a birth trauma. Even a seemingly easy birth can impress stress patterns in an infant which can persist into adulthood.

“Antibiotics, vaccinations, birth trauma, emotional trauma, poor food choices, allergies, sports accidents, falls, bumps, and bruises all create negative patterns in the nervous system…”

The safe and gentle treatments used by Dr. Chlebowski help correct these stresses before they lead to further organic problems. He uses low force adjusting techniques to make corrections. Treatment of children is fast and effective. A short course of therapy is all that is required.
