In this episode, Laura and Nadia welcome Dr. Tara, a family chiropractor, specializes in pre and postnatal as well as pediatric care.  Dr. Tara discusses the importance of chiropractic care during pregnancy, the benefits of treating babies, and the identification and treatment of tongue ties.  She also discusses the importance of tongue tie releases and the potential need for multiple releases if the initial procedure is not successful. She emphasizes the importance of proper healing and post-release stretches. The conversation then shifts to the topic of chiropractic care for pregnant women, specifically the Webster technique for balancing the pelvis and helping babies get into the proper position for birth.  Dr. Tara also addresses the common pregnancy-related condition of pain, particularly sciatic pain.  The episode concludes with a discussion on the safety and benefits of chiropractic care for babies, including wellness checks and gentle adjustments.
