Here’s the research that gives understanding to why gentle chiropractic can be a game changer for babies, children and their parents

“Just like the rest of the cranial nerves, the accessory nerve innervating the upper back and neck responds to a specific kind of emotional distress, and this is a feeling of being ‘unable to turn the body, head or neck sufficiently.’ If we have difficulty moving our head or neck, and if this causes acute emotional distress, then the accessory nerve immediately responds to adapt the muscles of the neck and back. Along with this response, there occurs a partial paralysis of the smooth musculature that lines the outer wall of the trapezius.

Because they are embryologically linked, this unique distress affecting the accessory nerve can simultaneously activate the vagus nerve to signal a peristaltic immobility in the intestines. In other words, the unique emotional distress of ‘not being able to move the head or neck sufficiently,’ can lead to a simultaneous peristaltic constipation in the intestines!” –John Ohm

By understanding the connection between the nervous system, our emotions and infant digestion, we can gain new insight into why infants experience constipation and indigestion.

Pediatric chiropractic care’s ability to provide specific adjustments to the head and neck, along with recognizing specific forms of infant distress, illuminates how we can foster better digestion for our infants’ and support their nervous system’s functioning.

Shoulder mobility yep a very important piece of the puzzle. This is great for maintenance and rehab but if this isn’t resolving your issues or you can’t even get your shoulder into these start positions you likely need some releasing treatment first and a lot of it comes back to healthy neuro biomechanics. I can help! Appointments available in Tasmania and Victoria www.stateofbalance.co

Hey there Balancers
This here pinned post is the best way I can find to have both Highton and Cradoc locations on the same page. I've tried everything I know how to do to list both sites equally but it seems Highton and Cradoc can't co-exist in the Facebook world.
Both will have the same contact number. Leave a message and I will get back to you ASAP. You can always send an SMS but please include your name so I know who I am responding to.
To make a booking online head to the website

I look forward to seeing you soon
