How does it work? Is it safe?

Chiropractic assessment and treatment of babies and kids is completely different to that of an adult. We do a thorough history, specific neurological, spinal and cranial tests to identify what’s going on and where the problems are.

The tests and treatment are very gentle and performed with light pressure. It helps the children's spine and nervous system to function better which help reduce your childrens symptoms.

After a period of care, we look to retest and re-assess your children's symptoms and neurological tests to see how things have changed and what to do going forwards.

Stories from our younger patients

When my little boy was born he was referred to ENT for suspected Laryngomalacia. When he was seen by the consultant, his Laryngomalacia got confirmed and we were told instantly that he needed to have surgery because he was 'failing to thrive' and not gaining enough weight despite showing no other severe symptoms to suggest surgery was necessary. I came away distraught at the thought my 3 month old baby had to undergo surgery and I had never been told by any other health professional (Midwives, GP, Health Visitors) that his weight was a concern. He was referred to a dietician after his appointment and I was told by the consultant he had to go on a high calorific milk to help him gain weight. During this process I had sought second opinions and done a lot of research and decided to decline the surgery for the momen. Since my little boy was newborn he suffered with consistent reflux which continued to get worse and caused him a huge amount of discomfort and distress. After speaking to the dietician she suspected a milk allergy over a high caloric milk, after putting him on this milk he shown an improvement in the fact he was a lot more comfortable and didn’t seem in as much discomfort but the amount he was being sick was still and issue. We thought this was just going to be our normal now until he grew out of the ‘reflux stage’ like everyone kept telling us he would but I just felt like I could do more to help him. I got in touch with Dane through a friends recommendation and I thought what do I have to lose I have tried everything else and this could be the turning point. We had a consultation with Dane who gave Cruz a full and thorough examination and said he thinks he can help us (he wasn’t wrong!) he had 4 weeks of seeing Dane twice a week for adjustments, after 4 weeks of appointments Cruz’ reflux is all but non existent and he is absolutely thriving, so much so we attempted the milk ladder challenge to reintroduce dairy and he successfully completed it and is no longer dairy free! He has gained a considerable amount of weight and has been signed off by his consultants and surgery was not needed. Dane is so knowledgeable and his time and care he puts in to his patients is invaluable. He is so thorough and really takes the time to explain everything so that you understand, at each appointment a plan for the next one is made so you not what is happening through every step. We will continue to see Dane every few months to check Cruz over but I honestly can’t thank him enough. He has changed our lives!
