Paediatric Chiropractic in Hastings
Our philosophy at Joint Space Chiropractic is that everyone needs chiropractic care from the day they’re born until the day they die—and we’re here for you for the entire journey!
It may seem like babies have a pretty easy life, but their little bodies deal with a tremendous amount of stress while they’re in the womb, during the birth process and while they’re growing and developing. Their nervous systems have so much to process and learn in order for them to hit milestones and develop optimally.
Chiropractic care is gentle and can help with that critical brain/body connection that your baby needs to thrive.
Gentle Techniques
For infants, we use a technique called “touch and hold,” which is just a very light touch in the appropriate area. In fact, the pressure is about the same as what you use when you touch your eyelid. As kids get older, we use other gentle adjusting techniques that are considered prudent and tailored to each child’s specific needs.
We Take Our Time
What Chiropractic Helps With
Since chiropractic care helps optimise nervous system function and biomechanics, it’s great for helping your child develop properly. Some of the specific issues we see in infants include:
- Colic
- Constipation
- Digestive issues
- Latching problems
- Plagiocephaly
- Torticollis
For older kids, we’re more likely to see issues such as:
- Balance
- Coordination
- Developmental delays
