The strains that a baby faces during delivery, either as they pass through the birth canal, or from forceps or other forms of delivery, can cause injuries to baby’s spines and nervous system that doctors and parents may not even be aware of.
It is well known that many Chiropractor’s see both adults and children.
At Young Chiropractic we have a special place in our hearts for the wellbeing of our families and that includes the kids too!
While kids are often robust and can recover quickly from slips, bumps and falls, there are times when you might notice that your child is not bouncing back as well as they usually do!
It is common that parents will get their kids checked when they notice that their child has:
- Fatigue
- Irritability
- Poor immunity
- Poor sleep
- Ear aches
- Head tilts
- Abnormal head shape
- Tongue and lip ties
- Poor posture
- Neck and back pain
- Leg pains
Why is this important?
Well when the spine and nervous system are out of alignment, it can have an impact on normal body function, and affect growth and development. More often than not, children will not complain of pain when they have a problem. Children often manifest other symptoms which can be related to dysregulation of the spine and nervous system.
How do you know they have a problem? Our chiropractors are trained and experienced in paediatric chiropractic care and have the skills to help your child experience the benefits of chiropractic including :
- Improved mobility
- Improved sleep
- Improved posture
- Supporting the immune system
- Supporting optimal growth and development

It can be heartbreaking when your child is suffering from an ear infection. Let’s explore ear infections and what you can do if your child suffers from ear aches.
Scientists know that your brain uses sensory information from your muscles and joints around your spine to help control your balance and posture, and to make sure that you’re moving properly. If that information from your spine isn’t very good, your brain will struggle to control what’s going on in your body.
