Common postnatal concerns we assess and care for include:
Pelvic and lower back discomfort from pregnancy or birth strain
Pubic symphysis pain and support for pelvic floor stability
Neck, shoulder, and jaw tension from breastfeeding, holding, or settling your baby
Headaches and postural tightness related to feeding positions or lack of rest
Numbness, tingling, or carpal tunnel symptoms, “mum thumb” (De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis) in the hands and arms
Core and abdominal weakness (diastasis recti) affecting posture and stability
Breastfeeding difficulties, including mastitis, cracked/damaged nipples or reduced milk flow (that are associated with baby latch)
Assessment of oral or tongue ties that may affect both feeding and maternal comfort
After giving birth, your body continues to adjust and recover from the physical and hormonal changes of pregnancy.
Our approach focuses on restoring balance to your spine and nervous system, improving mobility, and supporting your body’s natural recovery after birth.
The fourth trimester matters.
After birth, your body, mind, and nervous system are still deeply in transition. Healing, adjusting, adapting—and caring for a new life—all at once. Postpartum chiropractic care at Nomad Chiropractic in Mosman on Sydney’s North Shore helps you restore balance, stability, and calm through this period of recovery and reconnection.
Our perinatal-trained and Webster-certified chiropractors take a gentle, birth-aware approach to supporting women after pregnancy. Whether you had a vaginal or caesarean birth, we tailor every visit to your body’s unique healing stage and story.

Why Postpartum Care Matters
Pregnancy and birth profoundly change how your body moves, feels, and functions. Hormones like relaxin soften ligaments for birth but leave joints—especially the pelvis—more mobile and less stable for weeks or months afterward. Add in postural changes from feeding, carrying, and interrupted sleep, and it’s no surprise that so many new mothers feel sore, tight, or misaligned.
Chiropractic care supports these natural adaptations by helping the spine, pelvis, and nervous system re-integrate. It’s not just about pain relief—it’s about helping your body recover well.
We at Nomad Chiropractic, support women through every stage of motherhood—prenatal, pregnancy, and postpartum—helping them cultivate a naturally aligned body and vibrant wellbeing for themselves and their growing family. xx

Can Chiropractic Care Help Babies?
Birth is an incredible journey—but it can also be quite intense for a newborn.
Even during smooth, natural births, the pressure and twisting forces involved can place strain on a baby’s fragile spine, cranial bones, and nervous system. When labour is prolonged, fast, or assisted with tools like forceps or vacuum extraction, these effects can be amplified. Baby’s position in the womb, restricted movement before birth, or exposure to stressors during pregnancy may also affect how well their nervous system functions from the very start.
That’s where gentle chiropractic care can make a difference.
At Nomad Chiropractic, our approach with infants is calm, specific, and deeply respectful of their developing brain and body. Early assessments and adjustments are designed to support comfort, symmetry, and optimal communication between the brain and body through the nervous system.
When a baby’s nervous system is balanced and at ease, feeding, sleeping, digestion, and development can all unfold more smoothly.
Our goal is to support the function of your baby’s spine, cranial bones, and nervous system to promote balance, ease, and healthy development.
You might consider a chiropractic check if your baby is showing signs such as:
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.
