Pediatric Chiropractic in Brisbane
Children are naturally active. Just ask any parent. Whether they’re climbing, running, playing sport, or simply enjoying everyday adventures, bumps, falls, and the occasional sporting injury are all part of growing up. While many recover quickly, some injuries or areas of stiffness can linger and affect how comfortably they move. At Stott Chiropractic, we provide evidence-informed chiropractic care for kids, primarily those aged six years and older. Every visit is tailored to your child’s age, development, and individual presentation, with a focus on helping them move as comfortably and confidently as possible.
Care That Grows With Your Child
Kids’ bodies are constantly changing, so our approach begins with a thorough assessment. We look at how the spine and extremity joints are moving, identify areas of restricted movement or irritation, and discuss your child’s symptoms, activities, and recent injuries before recommending an appropriate plan. Our approach combines gentle chiropractic adjustments with rehabilitation, soft tissue therapy, and age-appropriate exercises where clinically appropriate. If sprains or strains are involved, cold laser therapy may also be considered as part of your child’s care. We adapt every technique according to your child’s age, size, and comfort level.

Helping Kids Return to the Activities They Enjoy
Care doesn’t stop with hands-on techniques. Where appropriate, we also provide advice on stretches, mobility exercises, activity modification, and rehabilitation to help children gradually return to school, sport, and everyday activities. Every recommendation is individualised. Some kids improve after only a small number of visits, while others recovering from more significant sprains, strains, or sporting injuries may require a longer period of care. Throughout the process, we monitor progress and adjust recommendations according to your child’s needs.
