Chiropractors are adjusting an atypical population in the industry – infants. The practice has reeled in some moms on TikTok and left paediatricians concerned.

Several chiropractors post videos on TikTok about how infants benefit from adjustments, some of the babies as young as six days old. Some of the videos have millions of views and are igniting a debate among viewers.
