Chiropractor in Omaha, NE
Hello and thank you for visiting Nebraska Family Chiropractic & Acupuncture in Omaha! One of the most beneficial health treatments is chiropractic care, yet many people are unaware of it’s benefits.
Chiropractic can be used for patients of all ages – from children to seniors – and can help in the treatment of chronic pain, disease, acute injury, or simply for patients who are looking to reach their optimal health.
In chiropractic care, the alignment of the spine is used to treat a number of physical conditions, such as muscle aches, neck discomfort, chronic back pain, headaches, and more. To do this, the spine is adjusted into the correct position using various methods.
Chiropractic methods are non-invasive and painless. Dr. Katie Dischler will do an assessment to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms, and then determine the appropriate course of treatment personalized for you.

How do I know when my baby needs to be adjusted?
Feeding issues
- Sometimes when the baby is uncomfortable, or there is a restriction in range of motion, it can affect how the baby feeds. You may notice this in the following ways:
- Nursing (trouble latching, preferring to nurse on one side/vs the other, one nipple gets more sore than the other)
- Bottle (Prefers to be held on one side vs. the other)
Digestive issues
- Trouble pooping – Constipation is a sign that the digestive system needs attention. Chiropractic care can help make sure that the proper signaling from the brain to the digestive system is taking place and help move the bowel along without the “stall”. Diet is also a factor that may need to be addressed.
- Excessive spitting up/reflux & gassiness- Some spitting up may be normal, due to over eating. However, the stomach and brain need to communicate to determine if the baby should continue to eat, or if he/she is full. When there is a miscommunication, overeating can occur and spitting up or gassiness is a common side affect. Chiropractic care to the abdomen as well as the spine can help improve the brain-body connection, thus helping relieve the excessive gassiness, spitting up, and/or reflux.
Mood/Sleep
- Excessive crying (colic)
- Needing to be held ALL of the time. (can’t lay them down for 5-10 minutes at a time)
- Trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep **Babies have smaller stomachs, so they will naturally need to eat more often when they are younger.
When should I bring my child in for their first adjustment?
Whenever you are ready! They have been living and developing in a very confined space and in some cases, in some very awkward positions. Delivery can also be traumatic for the infant.
It is a good idea to get them adjusted to help promote proper movement of the spine during development so they are developing the best biomechanics while learning how to roll, sit, crawl, stand and walk.
Sometimes flat spots can form on the skull due to reduced range of motion. Chiropractic can not only help with full rotation of the head, but also address the cranial bones.
Is chiropractic safe for me and my baby during pregnancy?
YES! We love working with expecting Mamas and helping care for you and your family as it grows! Chiropractic care has been proven to be beneficial for decreased labor time, as well as making delivery easier, faster and safer.
I have a pregnancy waddle, but that’s normal.
While it is normal to experience back pain and pubic bone pain during pregnancy, you don’t have to live with it and just endure.
Your body is releasing a hormone called Relaxin, which is great to help make room for baby as well as aid in delivery, however, it also allows for more motion and movement to happen in the joints.
Getting adjusted can help alleviate pain, increase range of motion and support proper motion of the joints. This allows other areas to relax and gives baby more room and freedom for movement in the womb.
