From Struggle to Smiles: Judah’s Healing Journey Through Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care

Before baby Judah began care at Radiant Waves Chiropractic, his mom was in a place many parents find themselves... desperate for answers, exhausted from trial-and-error, and heartbroken watching her baby struggle.

Judah was battling daily reflux and constipation. His mom had tried everything she could think of: gripe water, holding him upright for an hour after feedings, and researching endlessly. But nothing seemed to bring him lasting relief. Instead, she was met with dismissive comments like “he’ll grow out of it,” even though she could clearly see that he was in pain.

“I felt like I wasn’t being heard,” she shared. “Everyone kept saying it was normal, but I knew something more was going on.”

What Was Missed

When Judah came to Radiant Waves, we started with what every child deserves—an in-depth look into his nervous system using INSiGHT Scans. These neurological scans are a powerful, non-invasive tool that allow us to measure stress patterns and imbalances in the spine and nervous system.

Judah’s scans revealed exactly what his mom had sensed: his nervous system was under stress. Subluxations, or areas of misalignment in the spine, were likely interfering with the function of key nerves—including the vagus nerve, which plays a major role in regulating digestion and calming the body.

Subluxations in the upper neck and sacrum can disrupt communication between the brain and gut, affecting everything from motility (how well food moves through the digestive tract) to the strength of the esophageal sphincter, which helps prevent reflux. When this regulation is off, babies can experience symptoms like Judah’s—reflux, gas, bloating, constipation, and discomfort.

A Turn Toward Healing

After just two weeks of gentle, neurologically-focused adjustments, Judah’s mom noticed something incredible.

“He wasn’t throwing up nearly as much—if at all,” she said. “And as for the constipation, I noticed a difference right away. He started going every day, sometimes two or three times!”

As his nervous system began to regulate and adapt, Judah became a different baby. Happier. More comfortable. Full of smiles.

This transformation is what happens when we remove interference in the nervous system and allow the body to do what it was designed to do—heal and thrive.

A Mama's Message to Other Parents

Judah’s mom wants others to know they’re not alone, and that real answers exist outside the traditional “wait and see” approach.

“Radiant Waves absolutely makes sure you are more than comfortable before any adjustments,” she said. “They really put your mind at ease.”
