New Ridge Chiropractic & Wellness
New Ridge Chiropractic & Wellness provides drug-free pediatric, prenatal and family chiropractic care in Colorado Springs. The office describes its approach as neurologically-focused rather than traditional chiropractic, working from the position that the nervous system is the master controller of the body and that challenges such as colic, reflux, latching, constipation, delayed milestones, sensory processing disorder, ADHD, autism and allergies all branch from that one system. Care follows a five-step clinical process. It begins with a consultation, where the doctors dive deep into case history to look for the root cause of the health challenge. Step two is a set of INSiGHT scans, technology the office uses to find, measure and quantify stress and tension built up in the nervous system, looking specifically for subluxation, dysautonomia and vagus nerve dysfunction. From the case history and scan findings the doctors build a customized care plan that sets the frequency, adjustments and duration of care for that individual, which the office contrasts with a one size fits all approach. Step four is a report of findings visit to review the scans, the exam and the plan and to answer questions, and step five is the start of adjustments, which the office describes as safe and gentle. Alongside pediatric care, the practice serves pregnancy and fertility patients. Prenatal care uses the Webster technique and focuses on regulating the nervous system while relieving common complaints such as round ligament pain, sciatica and tailbone pain. Fertility care is offered as a complement to an existing fertility team rather than a replacement, assessing how the state of the nervous system may be affecting reproductive health. Newborn and postpartum care supports both baby and mom after birth, including latching, colic, reflux, co-regulation and milk production. The office also runs higher frequency specialty intensive care for deep, complex and layered nervous system dysfunction, naming autism, epilepsy, sensory processing disorder, ADHD, dysautonomia, PANS/PANDAS, apraxia, POTS, anxiety, asthma, chronic constipation and motor tics. Families are served across generations, from newborns to grandparents. Care is delivered by husband and wife practice partners Dr. Kelly Swanson and Dr. Josh Swanson, who both earned their Doctor of Chiropractic degrees at Life University in Georgia. Dr. Kelly holds an undergraduate degree in Exercise Physiology from Ohio University, is an ICPA member, is Webster Certified and is part of the PX Docs network.
