🌿 The Pathway to a Thriving Paediatric Chiropractic Career
** FREE WEBINAR FOR CHIROPRACTORS***

There comes a point in practice when you know there’s more you want to give — and more you’re capable of.

Join Dr Jacey Pryjma for a free online session exploring how to build a truly fulfilling chiropractic career — one grounded in purpose, personal mastery, and a deep understanding of how to support children’s developing nervous systems.

Dr Jacey will share the four pillars that have shaped her success in paediatric practice:
✨ Structure & Systems — the frameworks that create certainty and prevent burnout.
✨ Mentorship & Support — guidance that keeps you growing, not guessing.
✨ Mastery & Reputation — becoming known for the quality and depth of your care.
✨ Impact & Fulfilment — staying connected to a purpose greater than yourself.

Discover how to move from general practice into paediatrics with clarity and confidence. Learn how these pillars — alongside mentorship, structure, and connection — can help you rediscover joy in your work and build something truly remarkable.

🗓 Sunday 19 October | 2 pm AEDT
📍 Online via Zoom (Replay available)

🧠✨ Even after 19 years in practice, I’m still in awe of the little nervous systems I get to work with every week.

I love the variety in my week—caring for different stages, navigating complexity, and being creative and intentional in how we communicate and manage care. That blend keeps both my brain and my soul happy.

I’ve been using the Well Kids Exam—and the full Well Kids Program—for over 15 years. And in all that time, I’ve made just two small tweaks. Why? Because it works.

The patterns I see, the neurodevelopmental understanding I’ve developed, and the clarity I have when caring for children… they’ve come from years of consistent examination, re-examination, and reflection. This isn’t just book-smarts, it’s lived experience. It’s the result of being hands-on, of tracking changes over time, and of having honest, thoughtful discussions with colleagues who are just as curious and committed to chiropractic care and its potential for human potential.

This week alone, we’ve had such rich conversations with families—about how chiropractic care is more than a technique. It’s a lens, a philosophy, a way to understand our children and ourselves and live, parent and raise them with intention.

As Chiropractors we carry and live by our philosophy daily, we bring it into parenting, into how we design our family life, and how we respond in the little moments.

✨ Expertise isn’t just having knowledge. It’s applying it. Being self-reflective. Staying open.
Always growing and connecting.

Love our programs at ACCC!

Wobbly posture, meltdowns, messy handwriting — could it be a primitive reflex at play?

So many of the things we label as ‘difficult’ in kids — fidgeting, falling behind, emotional outbursts, poor coordination — are often not a child misbehaving. They’re signs of a nervous system still trying to organise itself.

Primitive reflexes that haven’t integrated can quietly shape a child’s posture, learning style, and ability to stay calm and focused.

At our Primitive Reflexes Workshop on 20th August, we’ll connect the dots between early movement patterns, brain development, and emotional regulation — and explore gentle, natural ways to support integration and healing.

💬 What attendees are saying:
“All-round great information! I heard some new things and built on current knowledge. I’ll use this in both my professional work and personal life.” – Sandra, Primary School Teacher

“The information on right and left brain imbalances was incredibly interesting and useful. I also really enjoyed the practical testing on the night.” – Kelly, Paediatric OT

This isn’t about fixing or forcing. It’s about understanding your child’s nervous system with compassion — and feeling empowered to support it.

Primitive Reflexes Workshop
Wednesday 20th August
7pm - 8.30pm

🤰Taking a good history is so important when caring for children.
It shapes your clinical reasoning and plays a vital role in mapping out a care plan and knowing how to move forward.

Here’s why:

✨ Prenatal experience shapes the nervous system.
Research shows that stress in pregnancy can influence the developing nervous system of the unborn child. High maternal stress levels can heighten sympathetic (protective) responses, affect vagus nerve tone, and set the stage for altered regulation even before birth.
Imagine being born already in a heightened sympathetic drive, beyond the natural newborn state of protection.

And then… layer in a big birth story.

✨ Birth experience — and those early days — matter.
Birth is a powerful, beautiful, and intense event for our babies. Sometimes, there is significant (macro) birth trauma, such as emergency interventions, forceps, vacuum, or severe distress. Other times, there are smaller (micro) traumas that are more subtle — a long labour, challenging positioning, or tension patterns from assisted deliveries. For many families, there are emotional elements during and after birth that can also shape the nervous system.

Those early days of mother–baby bonding are critical, supporting breastfeeding, healing, and laying the foundation for regulation.

Knowing which questions to ask — and why they matter — is key when caring for children. At Well Kids, we support you to look beyond the surface to truly understand the story of that little nervous system.

Because the way babies enter the world matters.
And how we learn and hold their story in our care… matters, too.

✨ If we want to raise a generation of Well Kids, it starts with listening to their very first chapters and recognising the impact of early stress on lifelong health. 📖

The beautiful thing about our profession is that chiropractic care already has outstanding outcomes—high satisfaction rates (99.1%), excellent parent-reported improvement (98%), and an exemplary safety record with no serious adverse events recorded across 24,000+ paediatric visits.

But at Well Kids, we believe there’s more to it.

From such an incredible foundation, we have a unique opportunity to further support and expand the experience families have with chiropractic. We need to decide to show up in a way that leans into excellence—not just standard care.

When I reflect on the Safer Care Victoria stats, I wonder...

Is it because we’re offering a style of care that’s refreshingly different from the standard medical model?

Is it because chiropractors are great listeners—known for taking time and building meaningful relationships with families?

Or is it that we’re fortunate to be in a profession where the chiropractic adjustment is so powerful that, even with varied skill levels, great results still show up?

Honestly—it’s all of that.

And that’s what makes me even more curious…

If our standard level of care already leaves parents feeling grateful and supported—
What could become possible if more chiropractors committed to being exceptional?

What changes could we influence in how families view health, development, and their child’s potential?

We’re not just adjusting spines. We’re shifting culture.
And we can only do that when more chiropractors choose to lean in, learn deeply, and lead with excellence.

👣 Balance isn’t just about walking a straight line.

It’s about interpreting the conversation between body and brain — and knowing when the message isn’t as clear as it should be.

Tandem gait offers us a window into nervous system function. Not just for cerebellar coordination, but for how proprioceptive input is being integrated and processed. When something’s off, kids don’t always tell us with words — they show us with wobbles, hesitations and compensations.

At Well Kids, we teach Chiropractors to notice what others might miss. 🧠✨ The small imbalances that may signal bigger disconnections. Because the quality of feedback a child receives from their body is only as good as the processing of the nervous system receiving it.

📍Our job is to interpret patterns and identify issues, particularly when they are more subtle. To train our eyes to spot these difficulties and help families connect the dots — so they can take action early, before stress patterns become stuck patterns.

This is the art of paediatric care. This is why we do what we do.

👐 Hands, Toes & Brain Growth 🧠✨

At 7 months, babies are deep in the sensory exploration phase—gripping, grasping, reaching for their feet, eating their toes and using their hands and toes to explore the world. These small movements are actually big indicators of brain development!

✅ Grasping & Holding strengthens fine motor skills, coordination, and is a major source of sensory information.
✅ Toe Grabbing & Kicking helps integrate reflexes and continue to build core stability.
✅ Hand-to-Foot Play supports the connection between the upper and lower body, setting the foundation for crawling and beyond!

But what happens when subluxations disturb function?

Spinal dysfunction alters the sensory input the nervous system receives—impacting proprioception, primitive reflex integration, and a child’s ability to practice the foundational movements needed for gross motor development. When the brain doesn’t get accurate feedback from the body, movement patterns may shift, becoming asymmetric or more difficult, affecting coordination, balance, and postural control.

A well-regulated nervous system depends on optimal sensory input, particularly from proprioception of the spine and the body. The Well Kids Program helps you monitor the small milestones, ensuring babies have the best foundation for movement, development, and long-term neurological health.
