Gentle support for your baby’s growth, comfort, and development

As a chiropractor trained in caring for babies and children, a mom of three little ones ,  Dr Anneke Lees understand how important your baby’s comfort and development is from the very beginning. 

Birth can be physically demanding for both mother and baby. Even a smooth delivery can cause tension on a baby’s spine and nervous system. 

Through gentle, specific adjustments, chiropractic care can help restore balance, ease discomfort, and support healthy growth.

Why Consider Chiropractic Care for Your Baby?

Your baby’s nervous system controls every function in their body — from digestion and sleep to movement and development. When there’s tension or restriction in the spine, it may affect how your baby feels, behaves, or responds to their environment. Chiropractic adjustments help relieve that tension and promote better function. Dr. Lees believes every baby should be checked by a paediatric chiropractor for optimal development.

We use gentle, safe, Chiropractic techniques specifically adapted for babies and children. Most babies find the experience calming and may even fall asleep during the session.( or sleep very well after)
