Babies and children of any age benefit hugely from massage and chiropractic care. Whether you have had a difficult pregnancy or assisted or traumatic birth, or a straight forward birth, babies often have areas of tightness and restriction that can cause problems. Massage and chiropractic care can help with sleep, colic, breastfeeding and infant feeding, and general bonding and relaxation for mum and baby. Childhood growth spurts, sports and fitness, tumbles and falls, sitting at a desk and carrying school bags can all take their toll on developing bodies. Chiropractic treatment (including Cranio-sacral therapy) is gentle, safe and restorative, and can encourage lifelong self-care habits.

We often forget how much change our older children's bodies are going through. Growth spurts, sport injuries, posture, prolonged periods of time sitting or lugging around a school bag can all take it's toll on their developing body. Both chiropractic care and massage are effective ways of ensuring your child's joints, muscles and ligaments are growing and developing in the way they should and without pain or discomfort. Chiropractic and massage care for our children sets up healthy self-care habits that last a lifetime!
