COLIC GURU
Dr Greg Lacock
This website is born of my passion for helping babies. Colic is poorly understood and poorly treated, with parents left to try a range of remedies and often ineffective treatments. This often results in months of needless suffering and sleepless nights. I have come to believe that prolonged colic can even have an effect on the babies personality!
As a Chiropractor, I approach the treatment of colic and reflux from a holistic perspective. This means treating the causes rather than just medicating symptoms. I’ve personally treated well over 6,000 babies over the past 33 years and have heard about every imaginable symptom and remedy for colic!
Releasing one little 'bubble' can make all the difference.
In most cases, it's simply a case of helping your baby to get trapped winds and gas to escape. So I teach ‘hands on’ practical exercises that you can begin immediately and expect to see results quickly. Getting a deep burp to escape can bring instant relief. A different set of exercises can release a deep pocket of intestinal gas. In some cases, it's more of a musculoskeletal problem where stretching and easing body tension can make the difference.
In other cases, further investigation might be needed as the pattern suggests an allergy or digestive issue unrelated to simple trapped gas.
I do hope you will find the information on this site of value and that your baby will benefit from my experience!
