Meet Your Baby-Focused Chiropractors at East Perth
Dr Emily Cumming is an experienced pregnancy and baby chiropractor who utilises gentle techniques and is committed to infant health, being a mother of three young children. She believes in a multi-disciplinary approach to optimising outcomes for her patients.

Comprehensive and Gentle Chiropractic Care for Babies
Infant adjustment differs from adult ones and doesn’t involve the loud popping and cracking you would typically see. Baby chiro adjustments look more like gentle stretches and massages, either in the chiropractor’s arm, lying down, or in the parent’s arm.
We may also use tools such as biomechanical blocking, which consists of rubber blocks to help position the body, and an activator - a spring-loaded, hand-held tool that provides low-force impulses at targeted areas to correct the alignment.
Personalised Chiropractic Care for Your Baby
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to patient care, particularly babies. We tailor our baby chiro care to each infant and focus on their needs and developmental stage.
Baby adjustments are not like adults, and our friendly chiropractors pay close attention to the head and spine, neck, diaphragm and joints, and overall range of motion, and make gentle adjustments that correspond to their critical developmental milestones.
We are committed to providing a comforting, supporting and soothing environment to help calm babies and their anxious parents!
Enhancing Infant Health and Development with Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is highly beneficial for babies. We use soft pressure to gently align the spine and restore normal nervous system function. This helps to improve:
Colic and digestive issues
Sleep disturbances
Developmental milestones and growth concerns
General wellbeing and comfort
Chiropractic care can also improve your baby’s mobility and strengthen their immune system.

Supporting Your Baby's Health: Our Chiropractic Approach
Common infant conditions treated at our clinic include:
Colic
Acid reflux
Constipation
Chiropractic care also helps alleviate the trauma sustained on your baby’s body from a traumatic birth.
Adjustments are not painful for your baby, but they may protest as they’re held in a position they’re not used to! Our highly experienced baby chiropractors will always ensure your baby’s comfort.
Your Baby’s Wellness Journey with Spine & Sports Clinic
Your first visit will include a consultation, where the chiropractor will check over your baby’s posture while lying on their back. For toddlers, this will be done while they’re standing up. We take a detailed health history of the child starting from the birthing experience, as this can be traumatic for the baby up until now. We then recommend a holistic treatment plan tailored to your baby and their development stage.

Boosting the baby’s immune system
