Interview with Dr. Robyn Hawkins Merritt from Magnolia Chiropractic

Why did you become a Chiropractor?

---

How long have you been a Chiropractor? Where have you practiced? What type of training and certifications do you have? 

Five years total; practiced in North Augusta before we opened our office, Magnolia Chiropractic, here in Augusta; certified in the Webster technique for prenatal chiropractic care, extra courses are taken to care for babies and children, and a member of the ICPA (organization for chiropractors specializing in prenatal and pediatric chiro care)

---

Do you practice solo, or are you a part of a team?

I co-own Magnolia Chiropractic with another doctor!

Can you explain what it looks like to get adjusted with you through pregnancy and the benefits?

Can you explain what it looks like to get adjusted with a new baby and the benefits?

Chiropractic adjustments for babies look much different than adjustments for adults. We use gentle, sustained pressure using the fingertip. The amount of pressure during the adjustment is less than what you would use when checking the ripeness of an avocado. 80% of brain development occurs by the age of 3. So starting chiropractic care early is a great way to positively impact your growing baby’s health. The benefits of chiropractic care for newborns can include: supports physical development, improved sleep, supports developmental milestones, promotes proper spinal alignment, supports neurological development, and can help improve mood & temperament.
