We had a very productive experience for our 7 month old with Dr. Ariel. Our son was experiencing noticeable physical tension in his upper body due to the birthing process, severe reflux, trouble swallowing and possible oral restrictions. These issues caused him pain and bad sleep problems. In the first session, Dr. Ariel honed into his upper body tension, diagnosed him with a upper gag reflux and suspected tongue ties, for which she referred us to a pediatric dentist. Our son’s tension has significantly decreased - he reached his unassisted sitting milestone and started turning on his own after just one session. Not to mention the pediatric dentist referral which was a god send.
Dr. Ariel is gentle yet highly effective. She has a high command of physical anatomy and is able to find the source of the tension and connect the dots between symptom and cause. I highly recommend Dr. Ariel for your child.
Dr. Ariel and I first spoke during an initial phone consultation, and I was instantly impressed with her attention to detail and desire to get to know me. I decided to pursue treatment with her when I was 18 weeks pregnant.
Having seen a total of five chiropractors in my life, I am able to speak from experience. Dr. Ariel spends quality time with her patients listening to and addressing their needs. She makes it a point to always ask, "how's your body?" Tell her the truth! Not every chiropractor will take the time to do specific adjustments so this was a welcomed change.
Dr. Ariel is also Webster trained, which is the main reason why I initially sought care at her practice. She understands how to implement specialized chiropractic care that tends to the unique changes and needs of the pregnant woman. I had a pain-free pregnancy and relatively quick labor/delivery and am CONFIDENT it was a result of my time at Flow Chiropractic. She even made a trip to adjust me while I was laboring.
Transitioning into postpartum was wonderful for me as well. Regular adjustments during and after pregnancy greatly contributed to my physical, mental, and emotional recovery. Friends and family regularly commented how "easy" the entire process seemed for me, and I couldn't have done it without Dr. Ariel!
Also, don't forget that she treats the whole family. My husband, a self-proclaimed chiro-skeptic FINALLY committed to care under Dr. Ariel. He was able to relax and get the treatment he needed thanks to her gentle nature and technique. She also skillfully adjusted our newborn on several occasions. We absolutely could not have been happier.
Thank you, Dr. Ariel, for your wonderful care. We love you and we miss you!
