Infants and Children
Children and teenagers get back pain, neck pain and sport-related aches too. We assess carefully and use gentle techniques suited to their age.
About Infants and Children
Back and neck pain become more common through the teenage years, often linked to sport, growth spurts, long hours on devices or carrying heavy school bags.
Care for babies and young children follows the Chiropractic Board of Australia's guidance on the care of infants and young children. Please call us to discuss before booking for a child under two.
