Chiropractic Care for Babies & Kids

Why More Parents Are Bringing Their Children to Oaktree


At Oaktree Health, we believe a healthy spine sets the foundation for a healthy life—starting at birth. Parents visit us for a variety of reasons, from colic to posture checks, and everything in between.


✨ Common Reasons Parents Book Paediatric Chiropractic Visits:

Allergies or breathing difficulties


  • Colic and constipation

  • Ear infections and frequent colds

  • Fussy babies or trouble sleeping

  • Nursing challenges

  • Head tilt (torticollis) or poor posture

  • Back, neck pain, or headaches

  • Hyperactivity and focus concerns

  • Sports injuries and growing pains

  • Wellness checks to support healthy growth

Although chiropractic care doesn’t "treat" these conditions directly, many families report noticeable improvements as their child’s nervous system function improves.

🧠 How Chiropractic Supports a Child’s Development

Children’s bodies are constantly growing and changing. From birth to their first steps, tumbles, and sports activities, every stage brings new stressors on the spine and nervous system.


Spinal misalignments—called subluxations—can begin in the womb or during the birth process. Left uncorrected, they may interfere with spinal growth and brain-body communication, even if symptoms aren’t obvious right away.


That’s why many chiropractors recommend early assessments and ongoing wellness care.


👐 Gentle, Safe & Tailored for Kids

Our chiropractors use specialized, gentle techniques—adjustments on a newborn use no more pressure than checking a tomato for ripeness! As children grow, the approach is adjusted to meet their needs in a safe and supportive way.


The Oaktree Approach

We combine:

  • Gentle spinal adjustments

  • Cranial work

  • Neurosensory integration

This supports healthy joint movement, reduced nervous system stress, and restored brain-body communication—allowing your child’s body to self-regulate and heal more effectively.


Even when children can't articulate their pain, we often see meaningful changes: better sleep, fewer outbursts, improved digestion, and happier, healthier little ones.


✅ Curious If Chiropractic Can Help Your Child?

We’d love to chat! Whether your child is facing a specific issue or you simply want to ensure they’re growing well, our team is here to support your family’s wellness journey._

Advanced AI Links Spinal Posture to Fibromyalgia Severity

New Study Reveals How Poor Alignment May Worsen Symptoms


A groundbreaking July 2025 study published in Scientific Reports used advanced machine learning (ML) to uncover how spinal misalignment correlates with symptom severity in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).


What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition marked by widespread pain, fatigue, sleep issues, and cognitive challenges. It affects over 2% of the population, mostly women, and is notoriously difficult to diagnose and manage.


Key Study Highlights

  • Participants: 303 confirmed FMS patients

  • Data Collected: 3D posture scans (sagittal/coronal imbalance, pelvic tilt, vertebral rotation)

  • Symptoms Measured: Pain, sleep quality, fatigue, mental stress, and overall impact

What AI Discovered

  • Top-performing models (FastKAN-BCO and MLP-LBFGS) predicted symptoms with up to 97% accuracy

  • Main predictors: Sagittal imbalance and pelvic obliquity

  • A vertebral rotation of ~10° marked a sharp increase in symptom severity

Why This Matters

  • AI captured subtle, nonlinear patterns invisible to traditional analysis

  • Posture may be more than a structural issue—it could be a key modifiable factor in fibromyalgia

  • This insight could lead to personalized care plans targeting spinal alignment
