From newborns and toddlers to children and adolescents, paediatric chiropractic can help address a variety of common concerns such as:

Colic and Digestive Issues: Chiropractic adjustments can help relieve colic, trapped wind, and constipation by supporting proper spinal alignment, which in turn can promote better digestive function.

Sleep Problems: Many children experience sleep disturbances, and chiropractic care can improve sleep patterns by reducing discomfort or tension that may be interfering with restful sleep.

Frequent Ear Infections: Chiropractic adjustments can support a child’s immune system and promote proper drainage of the ear area, potentially reducing the frequency of ear infections.

Teething and Feeding: Chiropractic care can alleviate discomfort caused by teething by helping to relieve tension in the jaw and surrounding areas.This also helps with common latching and feeding concerns by addressing the alignment of the neck, jaw, and connecting soft tissues.

Postural Concerns: As children grow and develop, they can experience issues with posture, especially with the increasing use of electronic devices. Chiropractic care can help improve posture and prevent problems from becoming chronic.

Paediatric chiropractic care isn’t just about addressing specific concerns – it’s about fostering overall health. By creating awareness and encouraging alignment, chiropractic care helps children grow into healthy, strong, and balanced individuals.

A paediatric chiropractic adjustment looks very different from an adult adjustment. There is no rotating, clicking, or “popping” involved. Instead, only very light pressure is applied to gently guide the delicate spine into proper alignment, ensuring safety and comfort for your child.
