✨“Wait… do you adjust adults too?”✨

You’d be surprised how often I get asked this question, and every time, it makes me smile (and laugh just a little)!

Yes, absolutely! I see adults in practice every single day.

While I love caring for kids and supporting pregnancy (it’s such a beautiful part of what I do), my work extends far beyond that. Many of the parents who bring their little ones in eventually hop on the table themselves, because they realise their bodies deserve that same level of care, too.

Adults come to see me for a whole range of reasons, including:
🌿 Neck and shoulder pain
🌿 Headaches or migraines
🌿 Low back discomfort
🌿 Fertility and hormonal health support
🌿 General wellness and nervous system balance

Chiropractic care isn’t just about pain, it’s about helping your body function better, adapt to stress, and feel more connected and at ease.

So yes, babies, kids, pregnancy, and adults are all part of the beautiful mix of people I get to serve every week.

Your whole family deserves to feel their best. 💫

🌿 Have you ever noticed how your child’s body and emotions are so closely linked?

How when they’re overtired, overwhelmed, or have had a big day, their little bodies just can’t seem to “switch off”?

That’s the nervous system at work.

Your child’s nervous system is the master communication network, it’s how their brain and body stay connected, grow, and adapt to the world around them. Every movement, milestone, emotion, and even immune response is coordinated through it.

But sometimes, this system becomes overwhelmed.

Birth stress, falls, illness, emotional tension, or overstimulation can shift your child’s body into a constant fight-or-flight state.

When that happens, you might see signs like:
⚡ Trouble winding down or sleeping
⚡ Sensory sensitivities or emotional outbursts
⚡ Constipation or tummy troubles
⚡ Poor coordination or clumsiness
⚡ Recurring ear infections or immune challenges

Chiropractic care gently supports your child’s nervous system to return to balance, helping the body feel safe, connected, and ready to grow and thrive.

When the nervous system is calm and connected, kids can too. 🥳

Kids are designed to thrive. 🌿

From the moment they’re born, their body is adapting, learning to roll, crawl, walk, run, and explore the world around them.

Each of these milestones helps shape how their spine and nervous system communicate.

Sometimes, those little stresses from growth, play, or even birth can add up and make it harder for their body to adapt with ease.

That’s where chiropractic care comes in, helping your child’s body move, grow, and heal in the way it’s meant to.

✨ A connected nervous system = a thriving child. ✨

This is a snapshot of my week last week! ❤️

Some people are surprised with what I see in practice! And sometimes, I am too!

It was a week filled with babies, pregnant bellies, some people in desperate need of relief and somethings in between.

There have been tears and laughter, crumbs and home baked banana bread gifts. It’s sometimes wild in here but that’s what makes it so beautiful. 😍

We’re back at it for another week 🙌🏼

Does your end goal feel a million miles away?

If you’re not where you want to be with your (or your family’s) health, and the gap between where you are and where you want to be feels too big, it can be overwhelming to even begin.

But that’s the secret: you just have to start.

Start messy. Start small. Start imperfectly.

Because those small, consistent steps add up. They turn into miles.

Every action you take, no matter how tiny, moves you closer to where you want to be.

Whether it’s in your nutrition, strength, flexibility, pain, energy, relationships, or spiritual health…

Take that first baby step today. Then keep building on it.

What’s one small step you can start today? 👇🏻

✨ Pregnancy and Your Pelvis ✨

The health and function of your pelvis and nervous system play a huge role in how your body moves through pregnancy and ultimately, how you birth.

Your pelvis is designed to move, expand, and adapt as your baby grows and as labour approaches. When the joints, muscles, and ligaments of your pelvis are balanced and your nervous system feels safe and supported, your body can function as it was designed to.

Here’s how you can support your pelvis (and your birth!):

🌿 Movement: Gentle, regular movement helps keep your pelvis mobile and your baby in an optimal position. Think walking, yoga, or pelvic circles on a birth ball.

💆‍♀️ Chiropractic Adjustments: Chiropractic care during pregnancy helps support pelvic alignment and nervous system balance, creating more space and ease for both you and your baby.

🧘‍♀️ Stretching: Daily stretching helps release tension and promote balance through your hips, low back, and pelvis.

💗 Manage Cortisol + Stress Levels: Birth and stress aren’t a match made in heaven. When you feel calm and safe, your body can soften and open as it’s meant to.

Your body is incredibly wise, supporting your pelvis and nervous system allows that wisdom to shine through when it matters most. 🌸

Why We Check Growing Spines 🌿

Everyday life is full of movement and growth for kids, running, climbing, backpacks, sports and hours at school desks.

All of this is wonderful, but it can also place small, ongoing stresses on a child’s developing spine and nervous system.

Regular chiropractic check-ups are like routine dental visits:
✨ They help monitor posture and spinal movement as kids grow.
✨ They support balanced movement patterns for sport and play.
✨ They give parents peace of mind that someone is keeping an eye on how their child’s body is adapting to growth.

Our approach is gentle and age-appropriate. We use specific assessments to see how your child’s spine and nervous system are functioning, then offer care plans that fit their stage of development.

By making chiropractic visits a normal part of family wellness, just like dentist check-ups, you’re helping your child stay active, comfortable, and ready for all the adventures of growing up.

📅 Family appointments are available so parents and children can be seen together.
💛 Questions about how it works? We’re happy to chat and explain every step.

✨ I’m calling BS on the phrase ‘it’s because you’re aging’ ✨

How many times have you heard (or maybe even said):
“Oh, that’s just what happens when you get older.”

🌿Joint pain? Must be age.
🌿Fatigue? Age.
🌿Losing strength? Age again.
🌿Weight gain? Menopause.
🌿Loss of balance. Age.

But here’s the truth: blaming everything on age is a cop out. 💥

Yes, our bodies change as we get older but how we experience aging has so much more to do with how we live than simply the number of candles on our birthday cake.

🍎 When we truly nourish and support our bodies 👇🏻
🍑Eating enough and choosing foods that fuel our metabolism
🏊‍♀️Moving daily and challenging our strength
🌿Using our bodies in the ways they’re biologically designed to move

…we can actually age well, with energy, mobility and resilience.

Some people even find themselves feeling stronger and healthier in midlife and beyond than they did in their 20s.

But it’s not just about food and fitness. We see people with longevity and increased vitality who thrive as they age also have:
🌿Community – Being connected and supported makes a huge difference.
🌿 Purpose – A reason to get up each morning keeps our minds and bodies engaged.
🌿 Relationships – Nurturing family and friendships adds joy, love and belonging.

✨ Aging well is about living well, nourishing our bodies, moving with intention and staying connected to what matters most.

Stop blaming age.

Instead, take responsibility for how we show up for ourselves today, tomorrow and for years to come.

💛 Your future self will thank you 💛
