Welcome to
Inner Child Chiropractic
I’m so glad you’re here! If you are looking to feel better in your body, or improve the life of you or your baby you are in the right place.
Hi, I’m Dr. Allie von Flotow
I’m a chiropractor specializing in women’s health in the perinatal seasons, lactation, pediatric care, pelvic floor therapy, pregnancy and postpartum core rehabilitation, lactation, hip/pelvis/respiratory/postural corrective exercise, as well as pediatric and adult functional medicine and hormone testing.
Although I specialize in women and babies I treat ALL bodies including men and our elders
Chiropractic care
The purpose of chiropractic care is to remove the stresses on your body and nervous system that create dis-ease within the body. When we remove these interferences we not only feel better, but our body’s function better. My approach utilizes traditional chiropractic adjustments to improve joint motion, position and neurologic function, a lot of manual therapy (think massage), mobilizing joints, stretching muscles, rehab exercises and breathing techniques, and other modalities like cupping and gua sha to improve blood flow and reduce pain. I always work within your comfort window so if adjustments aren’t for you there are still many ways to approach your body in a way that feels safe to you. Chiropractic care is a necessary first step before strengthening to get the framework upon which our muscles attach into alignment so that muscles are at their optimal length and tension in order to function in balance. There are so many times I hear my patients say “I didn’t know chiropractors do that.” Anything to do with your musculoskeletal system is in my wheelhouse.
Therapeutic exercise
Strength, mobility, and repositioning exercises are a critical component to long term successful treatment outcomes. Whether you are coming in with pain or just want to feel and perform your best, knowing where your weaknesses are and what exercises will support and balance your body is going to be important for your health and longevity including avoiding premature degeneration, and staying away from pain. In my office I use movement assessments and muscle testing to figure out where your body can work better and guide you through a customized rehab plan. We are asymmetrical by nature and in addition to that most of us have a dominant side where we are stronger and this can create issues for some of us, unfortunately. I often see pain syndromes as a result of imbalance in position and strength in the body. By using orthopedic and muscle testing to determine where you can utilize more balance in your system I can use that information to craft a plan to create positive change.
Care for infants
Oh the babies, my favorite! My work on moms and babies IS my life’s work. I see babies in my office for a whole assortment of issues ranging from nursing/feeding issues, colic or general fussiness, constipation, head turning preference, body and movement asymmetry, issues like plagiocephaly and torticollis, trouble sleeping, or simply for wellness. My specialized training is in lactation, tongue tie/oral restriction assessment and habilitation, pediatric cranial adjusting, and pediatric functional medicine.
Pelvic floor rehabilitation
Women frequently see a pelvic health therapist when they are experiencing symptoms like pelvic floor heaviness, dyspareunia (painful intimacy), bladder/bowel leaking, or pelvic organ prolapse, but what if I told you that I think ALL women should learn about their pelvic floor. After all, 1 in 4 women report experiencing symptoms of at least one pelvic floor disorder. Vaginal birth and age both increase your likelihood that pelvic floor dysfunction is knocking on your door. And what if your daily activities are making your symptoms worse or worse yet, causing a future pelvic floor issue that could have been prevented? These issues are so common in women it’s time to change how we approach our health down under. I want to help educate all women about their anatomy and how their body works so that they feel empowered to do the things they love without interference and knowledgeable about when to get help and what to do next. My goal is to help to make your pelvic floor issues a thing of the past, while trying to prevent pelvic floor issues from becoming part of your future.
