Paediatric Chiropractic in Inglewood & Perth

Dr Kimberly with babyWe see kids of all ages, supporting children through all stages of infancy, early childhood, and adolescence. We believe kids are born to thrive! At Oasis Chiropractic, we’re here to support your child throughout their entire journey.

Why Should My Child See a Chiropractor?

As a parent, you want your child to be as healthy as possible, and that includes a healthy, fully functional nervous system. The birth process can often be traumatic for infants, so they may need to be checked as soon as possible after birth.

Your chiropractor assesses the baby for any misalignments and corrects them with an extremely gentle touch and precise adjustment, no more pressure than checking a tomato for ripeness. We’re very gentle with kids—most kids love getting adjusted and it’s not uncommon for young children to sleep straight after an adjustment!

Hitting Their Milestones

As your child goes through the various stages of development, they will experience all the bumps, bruises, and falls normal to young children. Coming to see us may help ensure proper posture, and a foundation that is structurally and functionally sound. Crawling, walking and other milestones become easier to attain.

Starting chiropractic care when your child is young provides a strong foundation for a healthy life. They learn about good health and wellness habits, which may help prevent illness later in life.

This natural, safe and gentle health care adjusts the alignment of your child’s spine and skeletal system to relieve pressure and stress on their nervous system. During any stage of the growth process, children may develop problems. Regular chiropractic visits allow their bodies to do what they’re meant to—grow, thrive and meet their milestones.

The Process

Our doctor does a full assessment and discusses the findings with the parents, as well as the care plan to address their concerns. Reassessment is done every six visits.

Some conditions infants might see benefits for include

  • Constipation
  • Gas and bloating
  • Sleep issues
  • Plagiocephaly
  • Traumatic birth
  • Colic
  • Reflux
  • Latch issues
  • Milestone delays

As the child grows, new issues may arise, like bedwetting, attention issues, problems with fidgeting, inattentiveness at school, behavioural issues, delays, coordination problems, frequent falls, and clumsiness, along with sleep issues and constipation.
