'Infant Examination Essentials for the Birth Worker'

Dr Chamberlain, Paediatric Chiropractor (MAICE 2023), will offer tips and tricks for doulas to identify when a baby may benefit from chiropractic or osteopathic care. Attendees will learn several examination techniques that will build their confidence in knowing if a baby requires bodywork. ~80% of babies are born with tight joints or muscles, which can impact on their mood, sleep, and development. This way, you will help more families thrive in the early days.
