We understand how you are feeling.
Paediatric Chiropractic Care can be a valuable addition to the healthcare of your baby. The first year of your baby’s life is a period they will experience an extraordinary degree of development, surpassing any other age.
Within the 1st year, your baby’s height will grow by 50%, while their brain 2x in size. By the age of 5, their brain volume will have reached 90%.
This crucial phase of rapid growth and development can be influenced by the stress exerted on their spine and nervous system, potentially resulting in delays in reaching developmental milestones, as well as learning and behavioural challenges.

Let’s take a step back. During a baby’s time in mother’s womb, and during the birthing process, your precious little one can go through a particularly hard time.
During the time spent in the womb, the baby might have been confined and positioned in suboptimal and awkward ways depending on multiple factors.
Following this, the baby could go through a gruelling birthing process (either a natural birth, assisted or C-Section). Birthing is a huge ordeal for both the mother AND the baby as it poses substantial challenges to the baby’s tender body. It can affect a baby’s spine and may cause irritation to the nervous system.
Traumatic birth can create spinal distortions, shoulder or hip dysfunction that may affect how your baby settles, grows and develops.
Chiropractic care can be highly beneficial for babies who experience the following symptoms:

Nowadays kids are hunched over their phones, laptops or tablets from school work and recreational use. This can contribute to stressed and awkward postures leading to pain.
Technology connects with the world, but can disconnect us with our bodies.
Do you observe your child with poor posture or slouching? Is there concerns with their quality of sleep?
Tech neck and Scoliosis are two most common postural issues. It is advisable to get your child checked before they reach skeletal maturity. If you are concerend with postural issues, please get your child checked as early as possible as their body is growing quickly.
Our team of skilled chiropractors are trained to conduct postural checks, treat sporting injuries, assess heavy backpacks, and care for your child’s spine through all stages of their growth and development. We will provide you and your child with easy exercises and lifestyle guidance to foster healthy habits which they can use throughout their lives.
We are a family-friendly chiropractic clinic and you are more than welcome to bring any other children in with you as we are fully aware that getting child care can be difficult. Our friendly reception staff is always staffed during opening hours so any queries you have can be answered promptly via phone or email.
