Chiropractic Care for Newborns & Toddlers on the Mornington Peninsula

We welcome newborns from their very first weeks of life through to toddlerhood. Many parents bring their baby in simply for a gentle check-up, the same way they'd visit a maternal health nurse or paediatrician. It's one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

What We Commonly See:

  • Birth related spinal & nervous system stress

  • Unsettled behaviour, excessive crying and difficulty settling

  • Feeding difficulties and latching concerns

  • Wind, reflux and digestive discomfort

  • Plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome)

  • Torticollis (neck muscle tightness or persistent head tilt)

  • Developmental milestone support

All techniques used with newborns and infants are specifically adapted and extraordinarily gentle and nothing like the adjustments used for adults. The amount of pressure used is often compared to the weight of a fingertip. Our practitioners have training in paediatric chiropractic care and will always walk you through exactly what they're observing, what it means, and what they recommend. We know handing over your newborn takes real trust.
