McTimoney Chiropractic
McTimoney Chiropractic is a gentle method of adjusting the bones in your body through subtle modifications, which will then relieve pain and discomfort. The gentle approach makes it especially suitable for babies and young children.
Young children experience bumps and tumbles on a daily basis and this can often cause misalignments of the skeleton, which then can cause daily discomfort. Also, older children can cause themselves issues by carrying heavy bags to and from school, playing computer games for hours in an awkward position or by playing sports. All of these can lead to problems such as neck and back pain.
First Treatment
Firstly, Steven will ask for a history of your child’s health as well as details of the symptoms they are experiencing allowing Steven to assess their individual problems. Subject to consent from a parent or guardian, the child will be given a physical examination to locate the problem. If treatment is agreed, Steven will discuss a treatment plan and make the appropriate adjustments. Children tend to recover quickly from injuries and problems but serious issues may take longer to deal with.
If Steven discovers or suspects a problem that requires further medical investigation then he will refer you and your child to your GP.
Please get in touch with Steven if you think your child or baby would benefit from this treatment.
