A pair of chiropractic researchers wanted to know the answer to the following question, “Do the positive effects of chiropractic last long after the treatment period ends?” They created a questionnaire asking parents of colicky infants whether their children experienced any behavioral or sleep disturbances several years after treatment. Of the 200 sets of parents surveyed, half had children who were colicky infants and were treated with chiropractic care. The other half had infants with colicky symptoms but received no chiropractic treatments.
Survey results showed the infants who were not treated with chiropractic were twice as likely to display disturbed behavior (e.g. temper tantrums) and sleep problems as those who did receive chiropractic care. Chiropractic not only has short-term benefits for colicky infants, but this study suggests there are long-term benefits as well.
