Episode #114 Stress-Strain Injury in Newborns & Chiropractic Care

Today, Dr. Andrew Dorough, a pediatric chiropractic physician and owner of Dorough Chiropractic joins me on the podcast. We talk about stress-strain trauma that newborn experience during delivery and the impact it can have on not only the infant, but the family as a unit. I was floored as I began to think through the implications of all the signs and symptoms that indicate further examination. This incredible topic that does not get the time or attention it deserves in the medical field. I encourage you to listen to this conversation, check out Dr. Dorough's articles and help spread awareness about birth injuries in newborns.
