Baby & Children's Chiropractor Malvern East

 

The first year of life is full of exciting changes. Babies are learning to lift their heads, roll, sit, crawl and explore the world around them. Because development happens so quickly during those early months, we believe it's important to make sure babies are moving well and reaching milestones with confidence. 

 

Parents commonly bring their babies to see us because they have noticed:

        A preference for turning their head to one side

        Difficulty with tummy time

        A flat spot on the head (plagiocephaly)

        A preference for feeding on one side

        Concerns about movement and development

        Challenges with rolling, sitting or crawling

        Or they simply want to be proactive and have their baby checked.

 

Our chiropractors have completed additional postgraduate studies in paediatric chiropractic care and use extremely gentle, age-appropriate techniques suitable for newborns, babies and young children.

Unlike adult chiropractic adjustments, which may involve more force, techniques for infants are altered appropriately, using techniques specifically designed for your child’s age and developmental stage. The care for babies is very gentle on their delicate little bodies, using incredibly gentle finger pressure.
