Chiropractic for Babies and Children
Our treatment is safe & effective for all the family.
More and more parents are turning to chiropractic for Babies and Children, no wonder it is the fastest growing healthcare profession in the world. You don’t need to be in pain to get your spine checked – just like you don’t need toothache to get your teeth checked. The main premise of chiropractic is to remove anything that interferes with your body’s ability to work at its best. As the nervous system organises everything in your body & the delicate nerves travel down the spinal cord & pass out between each vertebrae, there is a chance that the nerves can become irritated… often from birth onwards!
“The amount of pressure needed to treat a child’s spine is no more than you would use to check the ripeness of a tomato!”
Chiropractors attempt to find the source of the many childhood problems that are caused by nerve interference. Once detected we utilise a range of treatment techniques to resolve the problem. Think of a Chiropractic adjustment as locating a tripped switch in your fusebox. We locate it, correct it & let your body do the rest.
Do Chiropractors “crack” baby’s spines?
Babies do not need the manipulation that adults may experience, there is no cracking or sudden movements; everything is slow and gentle: Most babies enjoy their spine being checked & often fall asleep. In-fact a baby hasn’t fully developed the joints in their spine for some years so we use specific gentle techniques for babies. Not all chiropractors are trained to work with babies and children so it is worth checking before booking your family in for a consultation. Our Chiropractors are members of the International Chiropractic Paediatrics Association (ICPA) and trained in techniques specifically for Baby’s and children.
Our Principal Chiropractor has over 17 years experience working with children in practice and has twin toddler sons and an older daughter.
