Infantile Scoliosis on the Rise

Abnormal spinal and skull development related to baby's sleep position

Written by Dr. Rebecca Patterson, D.C.

Over the last decade, researchers in the field of scoliosis have seen a steady increase in the numbers of children under the age of three who develop abnormal spinal curvatures, a condition known as Idiopathic Infantile Scoliosis (IIS). The relationship between this rare form of scoliosis, malformations of the developing skull (known as plagiocephaly) and specific sleeping positions is currently a hot area of research.

Lizanne Rowe - Family Food Coach

Lizanne Rowe

Lizanne comes to The Natural Care Clinic with a practical "expertise" in following special diets. Four years ago, when her son was diagnosed with autism, Lizanne and her husband sought out biomedical treatment to help heal his autistic symptoms. They realized a tremendous amount of success with biomedical and have shared their successful experiences with many other families, helping to coach them through their dietary adjustments.

Lizanne is passionate about food and she helps to ease the transition into speciality diets that can have dramatic effects on health.

The "F" Word

Written by Dr. Carly Wendler, N.D.

Do you pester your child with a frequent hand to their forehead lest they feel warm to you? At the first sign of a sniffle do you run for the thermometer? Are you well stocked with children's anti-fever medication, just in case?

The word 'fever' for a parent, especially if you are a parent of a young infant or toddler, tends to generate a lot of fear.

Here, I hope to educate you on each of these areas so you may make an informed choice about how to manage and treat your child's next fever.
