Pediatric Chiropractic

Service Description

This initial visit includes a comprehensive history and exam to we have a complete understanding of your body. Treatment for children with a Pediatric Chiropractor is very different to how we would treat adults. Light and low-force techniques are used with Pediatrics- the pressure used on your child's joints are no heavier than what you would place onto your own eyeball! Gentle pediatric chiropractic care supports your child’s developing nervous system, helping their body regulate, adapt, and function with greater ease. Care is tailored to each child using light, safe techniques appropriate for all ages. Benefits may include: • Support for nervous system regulation and calming • Improved sleep and settling patterns • Reduced muscular tension and postural strain • Enhanced body awareness and coordination By reducing tension within the spine and nervous system, care can help improve regulation, focus, and comfort. It may also support the integration of retained primitive reflexes (early movement patterns that should naturally diminish as a child develops). When these reflexes remain active, they can impact coordination, attention, and behaviour. Gentle adjustments and supportive techniques can help the nervous system mature and integrate these patterns more effectively. Care works best as part of a holistic, collaborative approach alongside other healthcare and developmental supports.
