All births whether long or short, natural, assisted or cesarean put a lot of pressure on your baby's cranial bones, spine and nervous system. Even the baby's position in the womb can have an effect on their spinal alignment.

We believe that every child should have the opportunity for an optimal start to life, which is why we recommend children are checked by an experienced chiropractic professional from birth.
Our newborn and child-specific chiropractic care focuses on removing interference in the spine and nervous system to allow the body’s natural healing capacity to work optimally.
Because infancy and childhood are times of rapid growth, it's important that the connections between your baby's brain and their body function properly, helping them achieve developmental milestones.
Parents bring their babies to Connect Chiropractic for feeding attachment issues, difficulty in turning their heads, tongue-ties and lip-ties, concerns with head shape, digestive disturbances, colic, disturbed sleep patterns, or repeated sickness.
Your baby cannot tell you what's wrong. By making very gentle and specific chiropractic adjustments, we'll assess your baby's nervous system, spine and cranial-dural system for interference, restoring balance and function to your child's system.
To help create a nurturing and supportive environment in Christchurch for our little ones and their families, our paediatric chiropractor can also advise you on neuro-developmental exercises, to strengthen your bond with your child and ensure they get the best care in-between chiropractic appointments.
From our Ferrymead clinic, we support East Christchurch families from Lyttelton to Redcliffs, New Brighton, Burwood, Sumner and Woolston.
If you're concerned about your child's health and development, or just want to make sure their body is functioning as it should, book an appointment at Connect Chiropractic.
