💛Back pain. Pelvic pain. Achy hips.
Feeling like your body changes overnight.

While these symptoms are common during pregnancy, that doesn’t mean they’re something you just have to “push through.”

🙌The good news? There are ways to help.
Chiropractic care can support your body throughout pregnancy by helping to:

✨Reduce back, pelvic and hip discomfort
 ✨Improve movement and posture
 ✨Ease joint stiffness
 ✨Help you stay active and comfortable as your pregnancy progresses

🌸Combined with simple daily habits like gentle movement, quality sleep, staying hydrated and modifying activities, many women find they can move through pregnancy with greater comfort and confidence.

💛Your body goes through incredible changes during pregnancy, and the right support can make all the difference to your comfort. If pain or discomfort is getting in the way of everyday life, we’re here to help. You don’t have to wait until after baby arrives.

Birth is one of the most physically demanding experiences a baby will ever go through.

⏱️ Long or fast labours, forceps, vacuum assistance and even the position baby spends time in can contribute to areas of tension or restricted mobility.

👐 Gentle chiropractic care is designed to assess how your baby’s body is moving after birth, supporting healthy nervous system function 🧠 and addressing areas of tension where appropriate.

By encouraging comfortable movement and optimal function, we help support the incredible developmental changes taking place as babies learn to:

✔️ Feed 🤱
✔️ Digest 🌿
✔️ Turn their head 👀
✔️ Settle 😴
✔️ Explore the world around them 🌎

Our goal is to support your baby’s body to function at its best, helping them move, grow and thrive 🌱 as they reach important developmental milestones.

💧 More than just H₂O.

The quality of the water you drink every day matters, and that’s exactly why we love our Zazen Water Filtration System here at the clinic. 🤍

Hydration is one of the foundations of good health, and Zazen takes it to the next level with a unique multi-stage filtration process designed to deliver clean, mineral-rich, great-tasting water.

✨ Here’s how it works:

💦 Pre-Clean – A ceramic pre-filter helps trap sediment, rust, mould, bacteria, parasites and nano/microplastics.

💦 Clean – The multi-stage filter helps reduce PFAS (forever chemicals), fluoride, chlorine, heavy metals, pesticides and other unwanted contaminants, while preserving beneficial alkaline minerals.

💦 Balance – Naturally replenishes your water with minerals including magnesium, calcium, potassium and silica for a fresh, balanced taste.

💦 Structure – Water flows through a magnetic tap designed to mimic nature’s natural vortex before it’s ready to enjoy.

If you’ve been thinking about improving the quality of the water your family drinks every day, we’d love to help.

We’re proud to be a Zazen stockist, so if you’re interested in bringing a Zazen Water Filtration System into your home, chat to our team in clinic, we’re happy to answer any questions.

🚨 We currently have a limited number of units in stock, so don’t miss out! Get yours today! 💙

The Palmar/Grasp Reflex is present in newborns, when the palm is touched, the fingers automatically grasp.

This reflex should integrate as babies grow, allowing development of fine motor skills, pincer grip & coordinated finger movements.

When retained, it may contribute to:

❎Poor handwriting

❎Difficulty spelling/writing

❎Poor fine motor skills

❎Tongue sticking out when writing

❎Fatigue during tasks using the hands

When primitive reflexes remain active beyond infancy, targeted therapies and activities may help support integration and nervous system development🧠

This may include:

✅Neurodevelopmental movement activities

✅Sensory integration support

✅Chiropractic & functional neurology care

Early support can help improve coordination, posture, learning & development 💛

🌿 Newborn Feeding Support with Dr Abbey Wiseman 🤍
Feeding challenges can feel overwhelming, especially in those early newborn weeks when everything already feels tender and new. You are not alone.
Dr Abbey Wiseman offers comprehensive newborn feeding assessments for mothers and babies needing gentle, experienced support.

With 17 years of experience in paediatric and women’s health care, Abbey specialises in:
✨ Breastfeeding challenges
✨ Infant feeding mechanics
✨ Tongue and oral function
✨ Oral development
✨ Neurodevelopmental support

Abbey has trained extensively in feeding and oral development, including mentorship under:
• Bridget Ingle (IBCLC) — breastfeeding, tongue ties, TMJ & oral development
• Cheree Wheaton (Orofacial Myologist & Dental Hygienist) — functional oral growth & feeding patterns
And she has completed a 2-year Post-Graduate Diplomate in Paediatrics.

Her assessments are thorough, gentle, and collaborative — working closely with midwives, IBCLCs, dentists, orthodontists, orofacial myologists, functional GPs and paediatric health professionals to ensure truly holistic care.
Using gentle chiropractic techniques, craniosacral therapy, Bio-Geometric Integration (BGI), kinesiology and neurodevelopmental approaches, Abbey supports both mother and baby to optimise feeding, comfort and development.

Now practising on the Central Coast 🌊, Abbey brings her calm, family-first approach to help mothers move through early feeding challenges with clarity and confidence.

If feeding feels harder than you expected — we’re here to support you 🤍

🧠 Understanding ATNR (Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex)

ATNR develops before birth and plays a key role in early movement, vision, and coordination 👶🤍
It supports the connection between the eyes, hands, and body.
As children grow, this reflex should naturally integrate. When it doesn’t, it can subtly affect movement and learning.

🚩 Signs a retained ATNR may be present:
• Skipped or uneven crawling patterns
• Poor balance, posture, or coordination
• Left–right confusion or inconsistent hand dominance
• Hand–eye coordination challenges
• Reading and writing difficulties
• ADHD-like traits, including dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia
• Ongoing neck or shoulder tension

🧠 A retained ATNR can also influence attention, visual processing, and reading skills.

✅ The good news?
The nervous system is adaptable.
With gentle, targeted movement-based exercises, this reflex can be supported and integrated.
Our paediatric-trained chiropractors work from a functional neurological perspective, recognising that primitive reflexes live in the brainstem and shape how a child moves, learns, and engages with the world. Through gentle chiropractic care, reflex-based movements, and supportive therapies such as the Rezzimax tool and photobiomodulation (a low-level light therapy used to support cellular energy and nervous system regulation), we help guide healthier nervous system development—at your child’s pace.
