Supporting your child’s growth, development, and wellbeing – naturally.
Chiropractic care focuses on the connection between the spine and the nervous system (the brain, spinal cord, and nerves). If there are imbalances in the skull, spine, or pelvis, this can interfere with how well the nervous system functions. This is especially important in babies and young children, as their nervous systems are rapidly developing during the early years—an essential time for setting the foundation for lifelong health.​
Our chiropractors are trained to gently assess your child’s spine for signs of tension and nerve interference, helping support healthy brain–body communication. Techniques are specially adapted for newborns, infants, and children to ensure safe and gentle care.

Chiropractic Research
​
A 2015 research study of 100 healthy newborns found
-
91% had issues with neck movement
-
94% had issues with lower back movement
Proper spine & skull movement is essential for optimal development, and this may help explain why research suggests Chiropractic care can help babies:

Cry less

What Help is Available?
At the First Visit we take a full health history and complete a gentle, age-appropriate assessment.
Our chiropractors provide age-appropriate care for children of all ages. Specific chiropractic adjustments are performed using gentle pressure on the skull & spine, by hand or with the use of a tapping instrument.
Some babies may cry or children say it's uncomfortable not due to pain—but because it can feel uncomfortable to release the tension.
You’ll also receive home care tips to help support your child’s progress.
Most children show improvements quickly, often feeling more settled, sleeping better, or having an easy bowel movement within 24 hours. Some may need a few visits to see changes, and occasionally, symptoms may temporarily worsen before improving.
We recommend a follow-up assessment within 1–2 weeks. You’ll also have email access to your chiropractor for any questions between visits.
We support families to bring children for ongoing Chiropractic tune-ups as they grow.
Bringing a child’s physical system back to ease with adjustments can allow them to better adapt to their environment and benefit in their overall health and development.
