Colic and Constipation

All parents can testify to the fact that babies can cry—a lot. For the first several months of their lives, that’s basically their job! Eat, poop, cry, sleep, repeat. Maybe this sounds a little bit like your daily schedule too. That’s fine! No judgement here.

But what if your baby cries a lot a lot? Like, more than you think should be normal. Well, if this is the case then your baby may have colic. Colic is a condition used to describe otherwise healthy, well-fed babies that are fussy and frustrated for more than 3 hours a day, more than 3 days a week, for 3 weeks or more.

It’s much more than just a fussy baby—colic can get scary. Babies may stop breathing and turn blue, just because they’re crying so hard about something that they can’t explain to you. It is so sad and so miserable for both the baby and the parent. Luckily, it can be treated! And should be immediately!

If your baby is inconsolably fussy, look into treating them for colic. Chiropractic care will help your baby feel more comfortable and will help you AND your baby get better sleep. Check out how chiropractic helped Beau with his colic and constipation.

After the first few weeks of his life, Beau struggled with fussiness and frustration, mixed with constipation and extreme discomfort. When his mom first took him to Highland Chiropractic, he pooped the next day and was immediately happier because of that. He also gained better neck control and was able to live life more happily. Chiropractic care can and will help unhappy babies receive the help they are so desperately looking for. Schedule an appointment with Highland to see how we can help you be more comfortable.

The Giving Tree – Help Us Help Them

Every year in the month of December we sponsor families that are in need of a little help around the holidays. We buy their Christmas gifts and make a special surprise delivery to their house before Christmas! It’s so awesome.

This year we are sponsoring three single moms and helping them buy presents for their sweet kids! So, if you’re willing to add a gift or two to your Christmas shopping list, we have a few families that need your help!

When you come into our office grab a tag (or a few) off the tree in the lobby. Each tag has a gift written on it, and the name and age of the person who will be receiving it. Be sure to tell the front desk what tags you’re taking so we know which gifts are being fulfilled!

The gifts need to be purchased, wrapped, and back here at the office by December 21st! Please tape the tag to the outside of the gift so we can deliver them all correctly.😊

If you’re not able to get in – feel free to respond to this email and we can pick an ornament for you to help with!

We absolutely LOVE this event, and it is a huge success every year thanks to you guys. We are so grateful for the opportunity it gives all of us to share some light and love with the people who need it the most. And we’re especially grateful for you and your willingness to provide extra holiday cheer for these sweet families.

We cannot express how much this is going to mean to these moms. And we are so excited to share this experience with you. This is going to be so much fun. 😁

Highland Heroes Family Festival Highlights 2021

Now this event was unique. We’ve never done this before but we knew it had to be done. We have had many questions regarding why we do these free events. The whole purpose goes deeper than just saying that “we want to give back.”

We really do want to give back, but more than that we have core tenets that we uphold at Highland Chiropractic. One of those tenets is: People and Relationships Matter Most. You are not just another number at Highland. Your life and the happenings in your life matter to us. We love creating things that can bring you and your family joy and then being able to be part of that joy as well.

In a world of differing opinions and ideaologies, we hold true in our belief that every single human deserves to feel welcome, to feel joy, and to feel the relief of removing unnecessary stress from their lives. We are here for you. We love you. And we look forward to being there for you in the future.

Now go check the amazing highlight reel that we composed for you! Also, we have pictures of all the Heroes who attended, so don’t forget to look and find your picture!

Highland Hikes 2020

Every year we make a trek up Table Rock with any of our patients that want to join us. It’s a good excuse to get outside, get some exercise and build a stronger tribe.

This year we made record time in getting to the top! Can you believe it? We hike every first weekend of June and it tends to always be at least 90 degrees! This year…it was 58 degrees this year, rainy and windy! (While we were planning on 100 people showing up, we ended up with 40…which is WAY more than I expected because of the weather.)

So maybe we got up to the top faster because we didn’t have to stop multiple times to feel like we weren’t having heat stroke. Or maybe the wind helped push us up? Either way, it was still a lot of fun and the kids that came blew my mind. They beat the adults up to the top.

I made a fun video recapping the hike – check it out below. And next year, we’re going to be at it again on June 5th! Plan on joining us.

Highland Hikes 2019

Highland Hikes was such a great time this past weekend! We made sure to have some sweet Highland Swag for all those who showed up…dogs included 🙂 This year we had bandanas made becuase last year the trail was dusty, hot and sweaty. We thought it was only appropriate to have bandanas made, however, the weather was amazing for us. It didn’t feel like we were in Death Valley, but the bandanas were still awesome??

This is a hike that we at Highland Chiropractic do every year and will continue to invite all of you to join us for. It’s a great excuse to get outside, get moving and be with some of the best like-minded people in this community. This year it was perfect timing for a kickstart to the summer as school was officially out for West Ada on Friday!

Boise has a lot to offer when it comes to beautiful landscape. And if you haven’t hiked Table Rock before then you need to know that this hike is amazing. It’s such a beautiful view from the top and is worth the occasional trail whining kid or husband to get there. It’s just part of the whole experience 🙂

Check out the video we made from Highland Hikes this year!

We also had Kevin Bidwell join us and WITHOUT ME EVEN ASKING HIM, he took some amazing shots of our crew on the way up to the top. You can check his awesome pictures out here – Kevin Bidwell Photography

We love our #HCTribe and look forward to seeing you all soon!
