2 Paed Chiros – Details, episodes & analysis

Christian and Mike unpack the effects of asymmetrical developmental issues and Torticollis in particular

Christian and Mike discuss poop in kids. What is normal, what to expect and how to manage it.

Come join Christian and Mike as they discuss how birth, feeding and environmental factors affect the gut, brain and neurodevelopment through the lens of the microbiome.

Pika pika.

What goes into creating a treatment plan for your paediatric patients? Christian and Mike explore factors to consider when creating a management schedule while discussing certain cases, presentations and what the research suggests regarding this challenging topic.

Christian and Mike look at brand new research around unsettled infants, the link to sleep/long term effects, and dive right in to that contentious topic of the moment - the CDC Milestone changes!

Christian and Mike dive into the world of research. Why do Case Studies matter? Are RCT's the best thing since sliced bread? Does coffee work with almond milk and honey? 

Join us as we navigate our way through using research in practice, understanding evidence informed care and the world of Chiropractic Paediatric Research!

Christian and Mike discuss the importance of spinal curvature and their development in kids. They discuss good posture, bad posture and the potential causes of both. Backpacks can be a source of contention and our 2 Paed Chiros break down the evidence around school bags and their usage. 

We cover a bunch of topics in this episode, and there are more references than we have space for in this description! If you want any of the references we discuss, please email us at 2paedchiros@gmail.com

Christian and Mike take an evidence based look at colic. Definitions, possible causes, treatment options and what evidence is still required.

Christian and Mike are two Paediatric Chiropractors who love any excuse to talk about their favourite subject...kids.

In this episode they tackle Hip Dysplasia: from the nuances of testing, to the timing of diagnoses and even some Italian phrases thrown into mix.

This isn't a lecture, this is two passionate chiro's talking about paediatrics

enjoy!
