How Children Can Benefit from Chiropractic Treatment

Chiropractor Arif Soomro at Cliffs is renowned in Southend for the safe, gentle and effective treatment of babies and children.

He has developed as a specialist in the chiropractic treatment of pregnant ladies and children since 1999 and is a Fellow of the International Chiropractic Paediatric Association.

Over the years he has continued to develop his knowledge, learning from the best in the fields of Sacro-Occipital Technique, advanced Craniopathy for babies, children and adults, paediatric chiropractic and cranial chiropractic (similar to cranial osteopathy).

Arif now has a large practice treating many expectant mothers, babies and children, many who travel many miles to receive his specialised experience, knowledge and care. The whole practice can be full of pregnant ladies, prams and small children and the lovely receptionists often multi-task with arms full of babies.

He believes in the humanistic approach to pregnancy and birth. The human body has it’s own innate wisdom and the female process of pregnancy and birth are generally healthy and safe. A birth team should create a loving, relaxed, nurturing environment for the birth; this power will help to deliver your baby without fear, feeling in control. To reduce the risk of birth trauma and problems such as crying babies we need to take responsibility for the outcome of birth.

Chiropractic treatment of the pregnant mum, babies and children is centred on a holistic approach, thoroughly examining the spine, pelvis, cranium as well as the muscular and nervous systems.

Arif believes that  analysis and specific correction to the pregnant female and paediatric spine and cranium may have far reaching impact on whole body with health benefits that can effect an individual for life.

While Arif and the team at Cliffs are experienced in assisting the treatment of many childhood conditions, you should always visit your medical practitioner if your child develops new symptoms or their existing condition worsens.
