Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a natural and scientific hands-on approach to health care that focuses on the optimal function of your spine and nervous system through the correction of the neuro-musculoskeletal system. Chiropractic is a safe and effective technique for all ages and stages of life.
Our Chiropractors here at Pregnancy and Family Wellness Centre approach health using a patient centred & multi-modal model of care with particular focus on how abnormal spinal function impacts on the nervous system's ability to control and coordinate the body. We work in a holistic manner and aim to address your overall health and function rather than just relieving your pain. Health is not entirely physical - your health is also impacted by your emotions, how you’re choosing to move or exercise and what you are putting in your body.
Our Chiropractors use a variety of techniques depending on your needs. These include
-
Diversified Manual Adjusting

Continuing education is really important to us, our Chiropractors regularly undertake further education with a large focus on pregnancy and paediatric specific techniques. All of our Chiropractors have completed numerous Spinning Babies workshops and are well versed to assist you with Spinning Babies techniques and any questions you may have.

Chiropractic for Kids
Chiropractic care for babies, children and adolescents is safe, gentle and effective.
Infancy and childhood are times of significant growth and it is important to ensure that the connections between the brain and body develop and function well. During this time of rapid development, many parents choose to bring their babies and children to a Chiropractor for assessment of their neuro-musculoskeletal system.
Our Chiropractors complete careful, thorough and detailed assessments of children and babies before using very gentle, specific and appropriate corrections to their neuro-musculoskeletal system to support healthy development and encourage optimal achievement of developmental milestones.
If you have any questions about whether Chiropractic care is a good fit for your child please don't hesitate to call us.
Chiropractic for Pregnancy
Pregnancy is a transformational time in life and every woman’s journey to motherhood is unique. Women should be supported through preconception care, pregnancy, postpartum and throughout motherhood.
At Pregnancy and Family Wellness Centre we strongly believe that women should be guided in every aspect of their health, not just physically, with the correct hands-on therapy, exercises and stretches, but also chemically, with correct nutrition and supplementation advice, and emotionally as they navigate their journey to motherhood.
Our Chiropractors believe that every woman should feel empowered to advocate for themselves through their pregnancy, labour, birth and as a mother. Although it may be common to experience pain in pregnancy, this doesn’t mean that all pain is normal, we believe all women should be able to find some comfort in their pregnancy and enjoy the special time before their baby arrives.
Our team has undertaken many further studies with particular focus on pregnancy including pregnancy adjusting and exercise seminars. Our Chiropractor, Dr Aimee Owens is also a Spinning Babies Aware Practitioner.
