24.01.2022 Ok parents, hands up if tummy time is a struggle! Tummy time is so important in developing core stability, upper body strength, visual fields and hand-eye co-ordination. Starting tummy time as early as possible will help your little one to be comfortable with it and help with their early development. As newborns, babies should be spending as much time on their tummies - supervised naturally - as possible.

24.01.2022 Pregnancy is something we have a special interest in at Family Chiropractic. There are a tonne of ways to optimise pregnancy.

21.01.2022 This is how assessments of children look at Family Chiropractic

21.01.2022 One of our key principles at Family Chiropractic is to look at the whole picture when we're assessing little bodies. From mum's experience of pregnancy and how smoothly the birth went to how your child plays and learns, we think it is SO important to look at the whole picture to have the most effective chiropractic care for your family.

21.01.2022 We're sure you've heard that we have two sides to our brain - the left, more logical side and the right, more creative side. Although we don’t just rely on one side of the brain for anything, we do have a dominant side of the brain depending on the situation we’re in. Which side of the brain do you think you’re dominant in?

12.01.2022 The brain is the master control system of our bodies, connected to every cell, organ and system via the spinal cord and the nerves it’s the boss! It controls every function of our body making sure we can live as happy and healthily as we possibly can.

09.01.2022 Happy World Breastfeeding Week

09.01.2022 Woah there! Is your child having trouble sitting still and focusing on 'slow' tasks? At Family Chiropractic we look at the big picture. Holistic approaches such as diet, brain exercises, sleep hygiene and even screen time usage can have a huge impact on how your children focus and use their surplus of energy.

09.01.2022 On the fifth day of Christmas Family Chiro gave to me: five golden fruit, four chiro kids, three super chiros, two floors of healing, ... and one big chiro family! See more

08.01.2022 Getting your kids up for school in the morning can be a nightmare. To start the day on the right side of the bed, try this: - be strict on bed time and bring it forward if you need to - have a calming evening routine - limit device time at night - follow a set morning routine... - have enough time to ease in to the day See more

07.01.2022 Tummy time isn't always a walk in the park for babies. For the fussy ones it may be helpful to try different positions like chest to chest with mum and dad, across your lap or along your outstretched legs. Not only does baby get some tummy time, they also get some time to bond with you.

06.01.2022 Lessons from Bluey To the Mums & Dads who have seen the Bluey episode ‘Baby Race’ (and those who haven’t, grab a tissue and take a moment to watch). Please know: ... -You’re doing a great job -babies should run their own race -And backwards crawling is ok Though if you have a bum shuffler there are some things that can help that and we’re here to help you with that.

06.01.2022 At Family Chiropractic we’re big believers in ‘better late than never’. We understand that sometimes life gets too busy and can get off track a little bit. We’re not here to judge - no matter where you are in your journey to health and optimal living, starting somewhere small is better than not starting at all!

06.01.2022 Many kids skip or don't have a nutritious enough start to the day and as a result they struggle at school and with behaviour throughout the day. Studies have shown that kids who eat breakfast learn and concentrate better at school even if it is something as small a piece of fruit on the way to school. A great thing to try and get your kids to get some substance in the morning as well is a quick smoothie full of yummy, healthy ingredients like banana, oats, your choice of milk, dash of honey and a spoon of almond butter.

05.01.2022 On the ninth day of Christmas Family Chiro gave to me: nine christmas cookies, eight black cockatoos, seven yoga poses, six bright works of art,... five golden fruit, four chiro kids, three super chiros, two floors of healing, and one big chiro family! See more

04.01.2022 Dealing with colic is hard! The heartbreak of not being able to help your baby settle combined with sleep deprivation makes this very stressful. While there's no absolute way to cure colic there are a few ways to try and make baby more comfortable. - Breastfeeding mums can experiment with their diet and try to eliminate irritants such as dairy, gluten and caffeine. - Bottle feeding mums can try different formulas and probiotics - Burp your baby as much as possible while feeding. - Try different feeding positions to see what works best for your baby.

04.01.2022 We like to move it, move it! When the word movement is mentioned most of us will think of exercise or organised sport, and while that is GREAT, movement can be as spontaneous and fun as a tickle fight on the floor! Here are some tips from us for some fun ideas to get young (and not so young) bodies moving! walking the dog splashing in puddles skateboarding... climbing trees jumping on the trampoline washing the car playing at the park pillow fights rolling down a hill See more

04.01.2022 We’re for the whole family and love seeing everyone getting involved in health, wellness and chiropractic care. From your newborn baby to your stubborn husband who complains of a sore back we provide holistic solutions for the whole family.

03.01.2022 Rolling exercises are a great way to stimulate the brain. Rolling fires up the vestibular system which senses where we are in space. The brain also receives a lot of stimulation through various parts of the body being in contact with the floor (tactile stimulation). In addition the core muscles have to work hard to do the rolling, yet another brain hit.

03.01.2022 Keep Growing Keep Trying Keep Learning As young bodies grow the importance of resilience has never been more prominent. Teaching our children to bounce back and thrive through love and attention, helping them identify big emotions and showing empathy and understanding.

03.01.2022 Meet Katrina! The Mum of the team who keeps us all in line and who many of you will see when you first come into the practice. Katrina loves spending time with her grandbabies especially with the recent birth of her sixth grandchild! When she’s not in the practice you’ll find Katrina out and about discovering new places and going on adventures, walking and paddle boarding her way around Newcastle.

02.01.2022 We’re COVID safe! We are still open and dedicated to care for you and your family. Please read through our new Covid-19 measures and give us a call if you have any questions.

02.01.2022 We love seeing cheeky little faces like this in the practice! We take a tailored approach to all our clients and work with them and their parents to treat them so that they are comfy and having fun along the way!

02.01.2022 Next up for Family Wellness Month is Kalina. As a Mum of 2 gorgeous and energetic boys Kalina needs to make self care a priority. For her this includes early morning walks and some quiet moments with a book and a cup of tea. Who else is making time for self care this weekend?

02.01.2022 A good (and maybe a tiny but scary) read for all parents. It is just one of the many reasons parents need support before, during and after the birth of a child. Another great share from Dr Steven Lin

02.01.2022 On the first day of Christmas Family Chiro gave to me: one big chiro family!
