At just a few minutes old, precious Oliver was in the NICU 🏥 facing a life or death situation. After a very traumatic birth, he was hooked up to life-saving machines like ECMO, a heart-lung bypass. 😭
Thankfully, that immediate medical intervention saved Oliver’s life, but he was soon facing yet another scary 😨 fork in the road. Two paths leading to two completely different outcomes.
One path was a very grim prognosis where his parents were told by medical doctors he would have extreme health challenges and be dependent on high doses of medications for his entire life.
And the other road was rebuilding and restoring his health with a completely different approach. While medicine saved his life, Oliver’s dad, Dr. Tony, had the gift of chiropractic that actually gave him life ❤️. . .
His mom, Kristina, said, “Oliver had such an advantage at birth because from the moment he was born, not breathing and blue, his dad’s hands were on him, pumping life into him with neurological adjustments. I had no idea at the time how much that would matter, but I know without a doubt it is why my son left the hospital not being on any medications.
When he came home from the hospital, we didn’t know what to expect, but we always, always believed he would surpass every expectation he was given. We continued his daily adjustments and every natural support option we came across. In his first years, he struggled with croup and respiratory things every fall and winter, but considering his start to life, he was extremely healthy!
At his follow-up appointments, every doctor, PT, OT, and speech therapist was blown away by Oliver. They’d always comment “wow,” from the paperwork and his history, “I can’t believe this is Oliver. I was expecting a totally different child.” I didn’t truly understand the power of chiropractic until my son was born, but those follow-ups reminded me the ONLY thing we did differently was that he was adjusted from the moment he was born.
Now, Oliver is so healthy and strong without a single health challenge. I know without a doubt that chiropractic gave me my son and that every mom in the NICU praying for something to help their child deserves to know about it.” 🙏🥹
