An adult's body will function in a certain way, with certain limitations, because of how it is built — in other words, your form decides your function. But in babies and children that are still growing it is the other way around. Their form is not yet set, so how well they function will ultimately lead to the type of body they will eventually develop. It is the goal of the paediatric chiropractor to maximise that potential.
Paediatric Chiropractic Africa stands for excellence in the chiropractic treatment of paediatric patients.
