🤍 Chiropractic care for newborns 🤍
Birth is a big physical experience for babies - even uncomplicated deliveries involve pressure, positioning and rapid changes as your baby adapts to the world outside the womb.
Newborn chiropractic care is gentle and age-appropriate, and aims to support normal movement and nervous system function during early development. It does not diagnose or treat medical conditions, but may support your baby’s overall wellbeing.
Here are some ways chiropractic care may support newborns:
🍼 Movement
May help support comfortable head, neck and body movement as babies begin to explore and develop.
🍼 Feeding
Some parents notice improved feeding comfort when babies are moving more freely (individual responses vary).
🍼 Sleep
By supporting relaxation and regulation, care may assist babies who are unsettled or have difficulty settling.
🍼 Digestion
Chiropractic care focuses on nervous system function, which plays a role in many bodily processes, including digestion.
🍼 Posture
May support balanced positioning and posture during early growth and development.
🍼 Nervous system
Chiropractic care aims to support optimal nervous system function - a key foundation for development.
Every baby is unique, and care is always guided by a thorough history, assessment, and parental consent🤍
