Little spines, big futures.

Dr. Anacker has checked newborns less than an hour old — and walked those same kids through scraped-knee childhoods and backpack-heavy teens. Gentle care for every growth spurt.

The first hour

Birth is hard work — for both of you.

In-utero positioning, the effort of delivery, even long stretches in a car seat — a lot happens to a brand-new spine before its first birthday. Dr. Anacker is passionate about giving newborns their best possible start, with checks gentle enough for a baby just hours old.

Parents bring their infants for help with feeding difficulties, digestion, colic and torticollis — and simply for the reassurance that everything is moving the way it should.

Childhood is a contact sport.

01

Infants

Gentle newborn checks within hours or days of birth. Families come to us with breastfeeding complications, colic, reflux, digestion issues and torticollis — small bodies asking for a little help settling in.

02

Toddlers & young children

By age seven, the average child has taken about 2,500 falls. Specific, child-sized adjustments help growing muscles and joints recover from the tumbling years — and parents often tell us their kids simply move and sleep better.

03

Teenagers

Heavy backpacks, gaming posture, growth spurts and the last stage of spinal development — the teenage years give a spine plenty to cope with. Care in this window supports posture and comfort right when habits are being set for life.

An honest note, in the practice's own words: chiropractors do not treat or cure disease. The work is simpler — reducing interference to the nervous system so a growing body can adapt and function at its best.

“Dr. Anacker is AMAZING! She has helped my son since he was just 3 months old. We trust her and her staff completely.”
