Growth & Development

From the very first stages of life, the spine and nervous system play a vital role in a child’s growth, development, and overall wellbeing. As kids grow—from crawling to walking, playing sports, and sitting at school—there are constant physical and neurological changes happening.

At Huntlee Chiropractic, we provide gentle, safe care to support growing bodies and help kids thrive.

Why Chiropractic for Kids?

  • Encourages healthy spinal and nervous system development

  • Supports better posture, balance, and coordination

  • Helps manage physical stress from learning to walk, falls, or sports

  • Aims to reduce tension that may affect sleep, digestion, or behaviour

  • Provides early detection of musculoskeletal imbalances

Common Issues We See

  • Poor posture from screen time or heavy backpacks

  • Recurrent ear infections, colic, or digestive issues

  • Sleep disturbances or developmental delays

  • Sports-related strains or coordination difficulties

How We Help

Our approach is always age-appropriate, gentle, and tailored to your child’s needs. We aim to work in partnership with parents, providing education and support every step of the way.
