    It is nothing like chiropractic work on adults Far less physical and far more gentle. Will PM you now.

    I can't recommend a local one to you, but I just wanted to say that paediatric chiros are VERY gentle . There is absolutely no bone crunching, just gentle manipulation. I couldn't even tell our chiro had done anything a lot of the time! The one we see demonstrates the pressure on parents before adjusting the baby so we know it won't hurt.

    Good luck

    we take our son to a chiro., his first appt was at 3 weeks. the practitioner is a 'Network Care' chiro & it is a very gentle approach based on light touch and also energy work. we are using it for spinal tension and it has been brilliant. definitely no bone crunching.
