Beautiful evening with over 20 amazing wise women.

Local midwives and educators joined us for a presentation on plagiocephaly, the unsettled baby, pregnancy and webster technique.

Collaboration is key for the best outcomes and support for all the families we look after.

In our theme of limiting technology, no phones and no photos unfortunately of this gorgeous group! Exciting things to come with this collaboration, watch this space!!
DID YOU KNOW...... the very gentle Webster technique we use has a 82% success rate for babies in breech position turning head down.

Dr Kirsten, Jen, our awesome CA, and our practice baby attended another wonderful Inspiral Chiropractic Seminar a few weeks back and what a privilege it was. Drs Genevieve and Rosemary Keating making huge strides in Paediatric Chiropractic and helping equip us all along the way. So special to help all babies and children to express their best selves!

Our practice baby loved every second which shows that you’re never too young for Chiropractic.

Autoimmune issues anyone?
I'm sharing this information as many of you have kindly asked how our daughter Molly is doing as she was addressing Graves disease this year. Most specialists will tell you that you wont be successful with a natural approach and will need drugs or radiation or surgery or a combination.
Molly has her T3 and T4 in normal range now, is feeling great and has used Naturopathy, homeopathy, nutrition and a big part of her recovery has been hyperbaric therapy. www.cocoon.net.nz

Dr Jason talks about why HBOT helps autoimmune challenges https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutube.com%2Fshorts%2Fb9R98PF-ibI%3Fsi%3Daw1O4Gt20VqL-APu%26fbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0kl7zUMHd9OK6JyVe63uTUsO9JqIYa2C4iaFETtQOTyJQgA-kSUThyujU_aem_Re6Pn9eRLO-kB4AwNEx3oQ&h=AT1Q7-Cwv0HX5ZmYaEelzPEKPPXKnWhB_-Wn63OOuMhZEbSga0qUXl4QkNRs6FtwUp52tqNnscY0preHfV1-z3cuM6nw7_0aDww9N0FpCNt9mQ0nHT_N-HP2ch5r5ABqQKCXCC6Lqcfa-wGLY9o
