Why We Started Chiropractic Care For Eiley

One thing many people may not know is that we’ve been taking Eiley to the chiropractor since she was a baby 🤍

When Eiley was diagnosed with SMA, we were warned about severe scoliosis, possible spinal and hip surgeries, and lifelong ankle support. As parents, those conversations were heartbreaking 😔, and from the very beginning we wanted to do everything possible to support her body as she grows.

That’s why we started chiropractic care twice a week ✨ While we know it doesn’t fix the root issue, we truly believe it has helped support her spine, hips, ankles, and overall alignment, and may have played a role in helping her avoid surgery so far.

Eiley still has a slight curve, kyphosis, and some hip dysplasia, which is one reason we are hopeful about the MUSE stem cell treatment she is scheduled to receive in August 🙏 Our prayer is that it helps strengthen and support her body even more as she grows.

She truly is doing amazing considering her diagnosis — she is such a miracle 💜 We are so grateful for everyone who continues praying for her, supporting us, and following along on this journey.
