Did your baby skip crawling? Despite what you might hear crawling IS important. It helps integrate right and left brain, strengthens neck and shoulders, improves body awareness and also helps set them up for success later when kids need visual tracking to read. But what if they refuse to crawl? Or if they hate tummy time? What if they have a janky crawl with one leg sticking out or scooting on their butt instead? Crawling concerns is one of the top reasons a parent will bring their 6-12 month old in to my office for evaluation. Bring them in for an evaluation and we can gently adjust any spinal or pelvis restrictions, do cranial sacral therapy, muscle work AND offer tips for you to help them at home. Maybe they now walk in a weird way with toes in or out. Or they trip alot. Let's determine if they have higher or lower tone in their muscles and suggest some at home play.
