CACCP-Certified Care for Newborns, Infants & Children
When it comes to your child's health, you deserve a chiropractor with more than general training. At Vibra Chiropractic in Woodstock, Dr. Fabiola Menéndez (Dr. Fab) holds the CACCP certification, Certified by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics, representing 200+ hours of post-graduate training dedicated entirely to the chiropractic care of infants and children.
This isn't a general chiropractor who occasionally sees kids. Pediatric and prenatal care is Dr. Fab's specialty, her passion, and what she has trained extensively to do.
What Is the CACCP Certification?
The CACCP is one of the most rigorous pediatric chiropractic credentials available. To earn it, a chiropractor must:
Complete 200+ hours of post-graduate coursework through the ICPA
Pass a comprehensive examination
Complete research projects demonstrating clinical understanding
Maintain ongoing continuing education in pediatric care
The curriculum covers newborn and infant spinal analysis, pediatric adjusting techniques, developmental milestones, neurodivergent and special needs care, primitive reflex assessment, and perinatal chiropractic research.
In plain terms: it means Dr. Fab has been trained by leading experts in how children's spines, nervous systems, and brains develop, and how to support that development with gentle, specific chiropractic care.
This is the question most parents ask and it's a great one. The birth process, even an uncomplicated one, places significant physical stress on a newborn's spine and nervous system. Interventions like forceps, vacuum, or C-section can add additional tension. And as children grow, through tumbles, postural habits, screen time, heavy backpacks, and everyday activity, their spines and nervous systems continue to be challenged.
Pediatric chiropractic isn't about treating pain. It's about supporting healthy nervous system communication so your child's body can adapt, grow, and function at its best.
Why Would a Baby or Child Need Chiropractic Care?
Common Conditions We Support
Families bring their children to Vibra Chiropractic for a wide range of reasons. Common conditions we see in newborns and infants include:
Colic and excessive fussiness — often related to nervous system tension or digestive difficulty
Torticollis (head preference) — one-sided tightness affecting how baby turns their head
Latch and feeding difficulties — tension in the jaw, neck, or upper spine can affect a baby's ability to nurse effectively
Reflux and digestive discomfort — nervous system support can improve gut motility and comfort
Sleep difficulties — nervous system regulation plays a major role in infant sleep patterns
Birth tension — general stress from the birth process, especially after long labors or assisted deliveries
For older children, we also support:
Growing pains and sports injuries
Sensory processing difficulties and neurodivergent challenges
Headaches and neck pain from screen use and backpacks
Ear infection support (nervous system approach)
Bedwetting and constipation (neurological component)
How Gentle Is Pediatric Chiropractic Care?
Very. Pediatric adjustments are nothing like adult adjustments. For newborns and infants, the pressure Dr. Fab uses is often described as the same amount you'd use to gently test the ripeness of an avocado, fingertip-light.
Techniques are always adapted to the child's age, size, and comfort level. There is no twisting, cracking, or aggressive manipulation. Many babies sleep through their adjustments. Many toddlers giggle.
Dr. Fab's approach is calm, unhurried, and always parent-inclusive. You are never asked to leave the room. We explain everything we're doing and why.
What to Expect at Your Child's First Visit
A thorough health and developmental history (including birth history for infants)
A gentle, age-appropriate nervous system and spinal assessment
A first adjustment if appropriate, always with your full consent
A care plan recommendation and honest conversation about what we observe
First visits for infants typically take 45–60 minutes. We take time with families, especially on that first appointment.
