Years of Combined Experience
Our Approach to Postpartum and Newborn Care
Care begins with a thorough assessment, gentle for a newborn and matched to a new mother’s recovery, because both bodies are adjusting after birth. For a new mother, low-force techniques can help manage the back, neck, and pelvic strain that feeding and carrying bring. For a baby, only very light pressure is used to check posture and support comfortable movement. Care is delivered by a chiropractor registered with the College of Chiropractors of Ontario, minutes from Markham Stouffville.
- Multidisciplinary Team
Chiropractors, physiotherapists, and registered massage therapists collaborating under one roof, so your care is coordinated, not fragmented.
- Movement Based Approach
We assess how your body actually moves, then build a treatment plan that restores function from the foundation up. Kinetic. Core. Foundation.
“Gentle chiropractic care supporting a new mother and her baby.”
The weeks after birth ask a lot of a new mother, and a newborn is adjusting too. Our Cornell clinic offers gentle, low-force chiropractic for both, delivered by a chiropractor registered with the College of Chiropractors of Ontario. Care supports a mother’s recovery and a baby’s comfort, minutes from the hospital.
