Support your child’s growth and comfort with personalised care

Children grow fast, and their bodies need support to develop smoothly. From birth trauma to posture, digestion, sleep, and behavioral functioning, early life presents physical and neurological challenges. At our Palma clinic, we offer an integrative model combining gentle chiropractic adjustments with Applied Kinesiology (AK). Together, these therapies help your child settle into balance, resilience, and optimal health.

How We Help
From the first session, we personalize care to your child’s needs:

• Ultra-light spinal adjustments (using fingertips or gentle instruments) correct alignment from birth onward.
• Specific cranial and cervical methods address tension from birth and relieve pressure that may affect feeding and sleeping.
• Soft-tissue releases reduce muscular tightness, especially around shoulders, back, and neck.
• Postural guidance supports developmental milestones (crawling, sitting, walking) with ease and coordination.

The journey through the birth canal, even in uncomplicated vaginal births, involves significant mechanical forces on a newborn’s body. The baby’s cranium and upper cervical spine endure compression and pressure, which can affect cranial nerve function and neurological regulation. Misalignments here may impact the vagus nerve, which governs sucking, swallowing, gut motility, and calming responses. These dysfunctions can manifest as colic, reflux, poor latching, irregular bowel movements, and sleep disturbances.

Birth interventions such as forceps, vacuum extraction, prolonged labor, or C-section may introduce additional biomechanical stress to the head and neck. Even without obvious injury, subtle misalignments or soft tissue strain can interfere with neurological signaling and muscular balance.

Our chiropractic care for infants focuses on gently releasing this tension and correcting alignment using extremely light pressure—often no more than you’d use to test a ripe tomato. The goal is not just to relieve symptoms, but to optimize neurological development, self-regulation, and movement from the earliest stages of life.

Applied Kinesiology Insights

• We use muscle testing to detect subtle functional blocks in the triad of health: structural, nutritional and emotional.
• AK reveals issues like digestive discomfort, nutritional gaps, or local tension impacting behavior or concentration.
• Based on AK findings, we provide tailored stretches, dietary suggestions, light meridian or reflex touch, and breathing strategies to support deeper healing and functional resilience.
• Together, chiropractic care and AK work in harmony, ensuring your child is supported at every level.

Benefits You’ll Experience
Parents often notice meaningful, uplifting changes:

• Calmer sleep and easier rest after addressing cranial tension and spinal alignment
• Improved feeding and digestion, as alignment eases reflux and colic
• Less fussing and improved mood, supported through AK-balanced nervous and emotional responses
• Better milestones: from smoother crawling to more confident walking and posture
• Enhanced immunity, behavior, concentration, and digestion as alignment supports the nervous system and AK uncovers deeper imbalances

Clinical reports and emerging case studies also document improvement in issues like:

• Poor latch and feeding dysfunction
• Gastrointestinal discomfort (colic, constipation, reflux)
• Asymmetries such as torticollis or plagiocephaly (flat spots)
• Sleep difficulties and irritability
• Developmental imbalances in tone, reflexes, or movement patterns
• By combining structural alignment with functional feedback, we help your child adapt, thrive, and grow with confidence
