Dr Shelley gets the best jobs.

This little guy started his chiropractic care even before he was born and he absolutely loves his appointments! He’s so gorgeous 😍

Why do we check babies? To give them the very best start in this big modern world.

Some of the symptoms of dysfunction are sleep issues, reflux, colic, latching difficulties, feeding difficulties, favouring one side with neck range of motion, flat heads, unsettled, wired babies, or failing to meet developmental milestones and more.

Did you know, from birth they should have a set of primitive reflexes. These should be integrated, by the nervous system, to allow for the development of postural reflexes.

These postural reflexes then develop into gross motor skills, trunk control, fine motor skills.

All of this incredible work is happening within their nervous system before they even get to school!

Dr Shelley has done special paediatric training so she can identify age and stage development and very gentle adjustments and cranial work…. this little guy just loves it 🤩

Today we had the opportunity to meet Hon Louise Upston, MP for Taupo, as she congratulated us on our success at the Waipa Business Awards. She was super interested in our functional health DNA testing and Dr Shelley didn’t let her get away without a rant about why folic acid shouldn’t be mandatory in foods.

Here’s hoping we can make some progress on that one with some cutting edge research available.

But for now, a massive thanks to Louise for popping in and meeting us, we really enjoyed sharing our success with you and we are very proud of our innovative and unique clinic.

No need to worry about the pop sound. It’s just gas and pressure being released. This is a good sign and means your joints are loosening. Many people find it satisfying. If you’re unsure, ask your chiropractor to explain it. 💥😌🧘‍♂️
