What Can Help My Nausea?

Acupuncture is very helpful and safe during pregnancy for nausea that occurs any time during pregnancy.

What Can Help Labour?

Many women find that their labour is shorter and more comfortable after receiving chiropractic care during pregnancy.

Why Would A Baby Have Spinal Problems?

The birth process can put a great deal of pressure on the spinal nerves and muscles of the infant’s neck and back. Even most ‘natural’ births can cause significant birth trauma. As children develop they suffer falls and tumbles while learning to crawl, walk, climb and run. Such everyday activities can cause these problems, which may result in a variety of unhealthy conditions.

How Does A Chiropractor Treat Babies?

Chiropractors use very gentle adjustment techniques that are suited to the child’s age and condition.

When Should You First Take My Child To A Chiropractor?

As soon as possible after birth. Chiropractic care at an early stage could
prevent many common childhood disorders that occur during
development. But any age is a good time to start because a chiropractor
will help your child’s body keep itself healthy, which can lead to a lifetime
of good health.
