YOUR FAMILY IN GOOD HANDS

ABOUT ME

Welcome to "Your Family Chiropractor” by Dr. Bhavini Dhanji

 

I run and maintain a 17-year-old self-established practice in the heart of Lonehill, Fourways. Over these years, I have been privileged to treat and interact with patients ranging from veterans, adults, expectant moms, teenagers and my personal favourite; children and babies.

 

My goal is to help you to get pain relief and to improve your general quality of life so that you are able to keep doing what you love! I continuously strive to stay up-to-date with the latest research in holistic health and paediatric care by regularly attending seminars, workshops, lectures and courses. Thus widening my expertise to bring well-rounded care to my family orientated practice.

ABOUT ME
BABIES

BABIES

baby care

My passion for paediatrics really sparked when I became a mom to two very busy, sporty boys. This further prompted me to complete various paediatric courses through CASA and the AECC based in Bournemouth England.

​

The spinal cord is the first part of the body to form in the womb, and the nervous system is the ‘chief controller’ of the body. The stresses of the birth process itself may place great stress onto the baby’s delicate spine leading to misalignments.

​

In babies, nerve disturbances brought on by these misalignments may present as;

​

  • Baby colic,

  • Irritability.

  • Reflux,

  • Constipation,

  • Torticollis,

  • Earache,

  • Trouble with winding,

  • Inability to suckle, or

  • Poor sleeping habits

CHILDREN

In children, this may present as;

​

  • Delays in reaching developmental milestones,

  • Digestive issues,

  • An inability to concentrate,

  • Headaches, 

  • Growing pains, 

  • Postural issues from heavy backpacks, 

  • and the list goes on.

 
Chiropractic adjustments on children are vastly different to that of adults and has been shown to be gentle and safe for all ages. Children can benefit from regular spinal and extremity examinations and screenings. Rather than waiting for an injury to take place, why not introduce your young athlete to a proven prevention model that will keep them pain-free and in the game? After all, that's what it's all about: keeping them safe and able to participate in the activities they most enjoy.

​

So why not make chiropractic a part of your child’s health and wellness today!
