Chiropractor for Babies and Children, Midwife


Birth can be a difficult process for little bubs, especially with the trauma of a birth with forceps or vonteause delivery. This can create imbalances that make growing up harder than it needs to be. Julie's gentle chiropractic work helps your bub reclaim that balance, allowing them to reach their most radiant health potential. Thereby, their body's intelligence can be accessed to help reduce symptomatic problems such as feeding issues, asthma, eczema, bed-wetting, unsettled babies, behavioral problems, recurrent colds and flus, allergies, ear infections and many more.


With 23 years as a midwife and 14 years of study and practice as a chiropractor, Julie has a natural ease and an extremely gentle technique in handling babies and kids, whilst offering a wealth of experience and knowledge.

Though one in four women suffer miscarriage, most are left feeling alone with their loss. The natural grieving process is seriously hindered by lack of appropriate support. We are attempting to remedy this by providing an opportunity for women who have suffered a loss of pregnancy to engage in an intimate, support group.


This group is facilitated by psychotherapist and social worker, Genevieve David, and supported by acupuncturist and doula, Naomi Abeshouse, who hold a safe and nurturing space for women to come to understand and share their loss.The program will be run in two hour sessions over 8 weeks, beginning february. We will be holding an introductory evening in early february, please contact us for details or watch this space !
