Dr. Maria loves to work with pregnant mamas, babies & kids and you will see lots of them around the office. Our daughter Cora is also in the office with us every day. Many of the kids that come in get really excited to come here because they love to play with Cora! We have worked hard to make it a very baby and kid friendly space with lots of fun toys to play with.
Whatever place you are in along your journey of pregnancy and parenting, we would love to be on your team to support your family in optimal health, from the inside out, by hooking up the incredible intelligence that lies within your amazing body.
The other doctors are there for when you get sick or need medications. We are here to keep the body in tip top shape, supporting the changes as you go through different phases of life and as your children grow and develop. What other doctor puts their hands on you with love and intention to help free up the potential in your body?
Dr. Maria continues to learn and grow, and you will often hear her talking about the most recent or upcoming seminar. She will continue to grow and learn to gain more tools in supporting your growing family.
We love to support kiddos as they move through the stages of development and as their body adapts and learns new skills. You might bring your kiddo in for support with their immune system - it can help so much if they seem to get every cold that comes by, and it especially helps with ear infections. You may also bring them in because they show difficulty with emotional regulation, learning, socialization or development. Like adults, stressors stack up, and children become locked in survival mode affecting their ability to thrive in school and life. Dr. Maria’s mission is to ensure children are fully capable of expressing their potential. Through pediatric chiropractic care, she detects blockages that might be limiting their full expression, often before symptoms ever show up. Your child is meant to shine, and it is a privilege to help them do that!
Birth is a wild ride for mom and baby! Even in a normal vaginal birth without interventions. My goal is to help set the tone for your baby to have the best possible foundation for life. Dr. Maria will check their spine, cranium and intraoral tissues to help unwind any stress or trauma. Getting adjusted (with the pressure of checking the ripeness of a tomato) helps babies to latch better, sleep better, poop better, be less colicky/cranky, relax more, and helps them become a happy and healthy baby!
We will talk a LOT about how to support you and baby to have successful breastfeeding and learn a ton about it. She works closely with an IBCLC & Craniosacral Therapist, as well as a Pediatric Dentist if outside support is needed.
Dr. Maria was a doula before she became a chiropractor and has always had so much awe and respect for the incredible process of pregnancy and birth.
Prenatal chiropractic helps your body move through this huge transformation with as much ease as possible, creating the optimal environment for a healthy & comfortable pregnancy. Webster specific chiropractic is about making sure that your body is hooked up to its incredible intelligence within to coordinate the huge and incredible task of creating new life. When your nervous system is strong, your baby’s nervous system is strong. When your pelvis is balanced, your baby has more space to get into optimal position.
Being pregnant does not have to mean you have to live with lower back pain, round ligament pain, pubic bone pain or acid reflux. Chiropractic can help with all of that and more!
This session is for us to get to know each other, to do an initial exam and to give you (or your child) your first adjustment (unless we need imaging or other referrals first).
Bring your baby to Dr. Maria! Dr. Maria provided exceptional care for my newborn daughter, who was struggling with oral ties. Her expertise and gentle approach with babies were evident from the start. She skillfully adjusted my daughter which helped with latching and nursing, ensuring she could build up strength before her tongue tie release procedure. Dr. Maria's compassionate and effective care made a significant difference in our breastfeeding journey and my daughter’s torticollis. Her beautiful head shape and all the tiny blessings in between is all due to this woman’s magical healing hands. I highly recommend Dr. Maria for anyone seeking pediatric chiropractic care, especially for issues related to oral ties. -Emily N.
She has guided me through sports injuries, work stress and the aches and pains from overdoing it in everyday life. Dr. Maria is a healer, an educator and a vital part of my overall health and well being. – Gina W.
My son first saw Dr. Maria when he was seven weeks old. He was jaundice, colicky, gassy, didn’t sleep much and had terrible reflux. Within hours of his first visit, the jaundice faded completely out of his body. Over the next few weeks of care with Dr. Maria, he became a much more relaxed and happy baby. Dr. Maria noticed that he was possibly tongue tied and referred us to an IBCLC. She confirmed the tongue and lip ties and referred us to a pediatric dentist for oral tie release. We did several weeks of chiropractic care with Dr. Maria then had his ties released. With the help of Dr. Maria, his recovery went very smooth. His body has responded very well and he is happy and thriving now. I highly recommend Dr. Maria! - Kallie M.
She is truly one of a kind Doctor. My experience with her has been nothing but amazing. I have been adjusted by many different chiropractors, and her knowledge and adjusting skills are top notch. She is gentle, but delivers very powerful adjustments, which makes you feel an immediate difference in your mind and body. I highly recommend anybody in the area to get under care with her, you will not regret it! – Cristina A.
She saw me during my pregnancy and now sees my newborn and is a baby whisperer! She is so gentle and soft spoken. I could not recommend Dr. Maria more! If you're expecting, have a little one, or just needing help to feel better, come see Dr. Maria, you will thank yourself! – Megan P.
Her adjustments, exercise videos and suggestions really helped me get unstuck, not only in my spine, but in my life. It’s amazing how holistically connected everything is, and I’m grateful to have a chiropractor on my team that understands this so deeply. Thanks Dr. Maria! She also has an amazing booking system for easily scheduling a session whenever I need one, right from my phone. Nice office with a space to stretch and roll out my back. - Blair B.
She helped keep me balanced throughout my pregnancy and now with my newborn, she's been working wonders with my baby's tight latch, jaw, and shoulders. My little girl literally becomes unwound before my eyes in our sessions. It's quite miraculous to witness. – Lauren J.
Dr. Maria helped my body feel better in so many ways during my pregnancy and into postpartum. She’s the most thorough chiropractor I’ve worked with and has a wide range of techniques. She helped solve some major discomfort happening during the third trimester of pregnancy and that work contributed to a smooth and positive labor and delivery. And then she came to my aid in the early days of postpartum and helped correct sciatica and back pain. Thank you Dr. Maria! -Aletheia Z
