At Skelian Chiropractic Clinic we understand how important it is to maintain a healthy spine throughout your lifetime. Many spinal conditions can be identified and corrected in childhood avoiding difficulties in later life.

As a child grows up, and starts to walk, climb and run, the inevitable falls and bumps can affect the still-developing bones of the skeleton. Once at school, the child carries heavy bags, sits on badly-designed chairs (often with poor posture) and takes part in a variety of games which may lead to stress and injury.

Chiropractors are trained to identify a wide variety of problems that can emerge during the different stages of growing up. Treatment techniques are very gentle and are modified to take into account the more delicate muscles, bones and joints of a child.
