Your chiropractor will take the time to understand your postpartum experience — looking beyond just symptoms to explore how your body is recovering after pregnancy and birth, including posture, movement patterns, feeding positions, sleep and daily demands.
A thorough assessment follows, including posture, movement and nervous system checks to understand how your body is adapting in this stage of recovery.

Report of Findings
30mins
At your second visit, we’ll walk you through what we’ve found in a clear, easy-to-understand way.
You’ll gain insight into what may be contributing to your discomfort, how your body is compensating after pregnancy and birth, and what your personalised care plan could look like — whether your focus is improving comfort, restoring movement, or supporting long-term recovery.
👉 We take the time to ensure you feel informed, supported and confident in your care plan moving forward.

A flattened or irregular head shape
Favouring one side when turning or feeding
Muscle tightness or stiffness through the neck or body
Unsettled behaviour, colic, or inconsolable crying
Reflux, wind, or digestive discomfort
Challenges with latching or feeding
Facial asymmetry
Delayed movement or motor milestones
Skin flare-ups or frequent immune challenges
Trouble with sleep or waking often
An overall sense that “something feels off”
Our paediatric care is safe, gentle, and tailored to your baby’s age and needs. We use light touch, cranial techniques, and calming adjustments to support your child’s development from day one.
Newborn Chiropractic
Care is tailored to each baby and techniques used are so gentle… it’s likened to checking the ripeness of a piece of fruit.
Have you been under pregnancy care with us?

You don’t have to “just push through” postpartum recovery
Your body has been through a lot - it’s not meant to just “bounce back” on it’s own…
👉 Start your postpartum recovery with the right support
After pregnancy and birth, your body adapts to new movement patterns — feeding, carrying, lifting and holding — often without enough time or support to recover properly.
