Family chiropractic Singapore — why is our clinic called Family Health Chiropractic? Dr. Kelvin Ng explains his vision: that chiropractic care is not just for people in pain, but for the whole family — from newborns to grandparents. At Family Health Chiropractic in Somerset, Singapore, we believe every member of your family deserves a healthy, well-functioning nervous system from the earliest days of life.
A patient asked me yesterday why my clinic is called Family Health Chiropractic Clinic. I thought this is an excellent chance for me to explain to anyone who cares to know.I personally believe that chiropractic is not just for someone with aches and pains. Chiropractic should be for the family. Chiropractic care should start from the time a person is conceived, i.e. while the mummy is pregnant. A conducive environment is essential for the baby to grow so that he/she gets the most nutrition possible and he/she can get into the best position for mummy’s big push. Having a well-aligned pelvis helps make labor easier, thus reducing the need for medical intervention. This makes it less stressful for both the mum and the baby.Most people do not know that the birth process can be a rather stressful event for the baby. The baby’s spine can be stretched or twisted and this puts alot of stress for the infant’s nervous system. If undetected and uncorrected, this can pose health problems for the infant down the road. As they grow, it is unevitable for them to fall (alot!!!) and take knocks and carry heavy bags and these further put their nervous system to stress. Most people walk around subluxated (since young) all their life and do nothing about it until they start to feel aches and pains. Why not bring pregnant ladies and infants to a chiropractor to have their spines checked?It is with this belief that I chose to be a family chiropractor. I named my clinic “Family Health Chiropractic Clinic” for 2 reasons. First, I am trained and certified to provide chiropractic care to babies and pregnant women and I believe that everyone in the family should get under care. Secondly, I treat all my patients like my family members and I want them to be healthy. Afterall, the best gift that you can ever give to a child, in my opinion, is a healthy nervous system and this can be achieved via chiropractic.What family chiropractic care looks like at our clinic
At Family Health Chiropractic, family chiropractic care in Singapore means one clinic that can look after every age in your household. Parents, children, grandparents and expecting mothers can all be seen by Dr Kelvin Ng or Dr Ashley Liew, each with an approach suited to their stage of life.
For babies and children, care uses very light, age-appropriate techniques. For pregnant mothers, care is adapted to each trimester and focuses on comfort and movement. For adults, it often centres on neck, back and posture concerns from desk work and daily routines. For older family members, care is gentle and aimed at helping them stay active and mobile.
Many families find it convenient to come together, because one visit can cover several people. We keep things simple: you pay per visit, with no packages and no lock-in, so each person can decide what suits them at every stage.
Whatever your age, your chiropractor will explain his findings in plain language and agree a care plan with you before anything begins, so you always know what to expect.
