Chiropractic for Kids and Growing Bodies
Children grow, move, and change fast, and their bodies work hard to keep up. From bumps and tumbles to heavy schoolbags and digital devices, kids face all kinds of stress on their developing spines and nervous systems.
Our skilled team cares for children of all ages, from newborns and toddlers to teens and young adults. Whether you’re noticing something in your child’s posture or just want support through different stages of growth, we’re here to help in a calm, friendly, and family-orientated setting.
Gentle, Child-Friendly Care That Fits Your Family
Chiropractors Dr Mark and Dr Julie both have advanced training in paediatric care and years of experience working with babies and children. Appointments here at are relaxed and tailored to your child’s age, comfort level, and developmental stage. We are also wheelchair accessible.
We use gentle, low-force techniques suitable for young bodies. Babies may respond with a sigh or subtle movement – there’s no cracking, forceful pushing, or surprises. We involve older kids and teens in the conversation so they feel informed and relaxed throughout their care.
Why Do Families Bring Their Kids to See Us?
Parents often come to us with questions or concerns about how their child is developing. We may be able to help with:
- Postural changes or imbalances
- Head tilting or favouring one side (in babies)
- Discomfort from growth spurts
- Difficulties with sleep or restlessness
- Trouble settling or signs of discomfort in newborns
- Schoolbag strain or slouching
- General support for healthy movement and function
Kids don’t always have the words to explain what’s wrong. Our role is to listen carefully, observe clearly, and communicate with both the child and their parent to understand what’s going on.
Family-Focused From Start to Finish
We know that getting out the door with kids can be a challenge. That’s why we’ve designed a space that makes life easier, from the play area in our reception room to the caring team who’ll happily hold your baby while you get adjusted. No babysitter needed. Same-day and late appointments make finding a time that works for you easier.
We’ve been seeing multiple generations of Mornington families for decades, and it’s not unusual for the children we once cared for to bring in their own kids today. It’s an honour we don’t take lightly.
