Each child is assessed individually based on their age and stage of development. We focus on gentle, safe, evidence-informed techniques to support overall development improve comfort and restore functional movement.
As children grow, their bodies are exposed to everyday stresses like bumps and falls, carrying heavy school bags, sitting for long periods, and using screens. Gentle chiropractic care, along with tailored exercises, can help support their nervous system, enabling them to adapt to these daily demands and function at their best.
Chiropractic care for babies and children is gentle and differs significantly from adult treatment. Before beginning any care, Dr Sarah will explain what to expect, discuss any recommended techniques, and ensure you feel informed and comfortable before proceeding.
