PREGNANCY AND MOTHERS
Chiropractic is highly beneficial during pregnancy. Low back pain and discomfort are very common and might be due to expected physiological changes, hormonal changes and the increase in body mass leading to altered compliance and increased mechanical stress on the spine. The enlarging gravid uterus, accompanying compensatory lumbar lordosis and shift of the centre of gravity may increase strain on bones, muscles and ligaments of lumbar region. We are trained in Webster technique which is a specific chiropractic sacral analysis and gentle adjustment often used in pregnancy. Chiropractic care during pregnancy may also help your baby get into the best possible position
for delivery.
WELL BALANCED CHILD
Evidence-based approach that is grounded in the principles of developmental functional neurology. Our focus is on specific stages of brain development and we use a variety of techniques to functionally measure and examine the brain as it goes through these stages. With this approach, we strive to identify when, where and why brain development is altered in its functional development. This has allowed us to better understand and treat a variety of
neurobehavioral conditions.
SYMPATHETIC DOMINANCE
VAGUS NERVE DYSFUNCTION
Autonomic nervous system is broken into two parts: Sympathetic and Parasympathetic (Vagus Nerve). The parasympathetic side is known as "feed and breed" or "rest and digest" mode. The sympathetic side reacts in "flight or fight" situations. What happens when we are in Sympathetic Dominance? We can experience sensitivity to light and sound, sugar or salt cravings, digestive upsets, headaches, tiredness and many other symptoms. How can we improve Vagus Nerve function? We offer advice, assessment and simple to use tips on how to balance your autonomic nervous system.
