Complementing your care

Practitioner-Only Supplements

At The Healing Nest, we believe that good health is built on strong foundations. While chiropractic care focuses on supporting healthy movement and nervous system function, nutrition can also play an important role in overall wellbeing.

As part of your care, Dr Carina may recommend practitioner-only nutritional supplements where clinically appropriate. These recommendations are always tailored to your individual health history, lifestyle, goals, and current presentation.

We stock a wide range of high-quality practitioner-only supplements from trusted Australian brands including Metagenics, Biomedica and Orthoplex — allowing us to create personalised supplement plans to support your individual needs. Recommendations may include nutrients, herbal medicines, probiotics, minerals, or other evidence-informed products when appropriate.

Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we believe supplementation should be purposeful and individualised. During your consultation, Dr Carina will discuss whether nutritional support may be beneficial as part of your overall health plan.

Our aim is to complement your chiropractic care with practical, evidence-informed recommendations that support your long-term health and wellbeing.

Mimos® Pillows

At The Healing Nest, we offer the Mimos® Pillow as part of our integrative approach to supporting babies with positional head shape concerns, including plagiocephaly (flat head) and brachycephaly.

The Mimos® Pillow is designed to help reduce pressure on the back of a baby's head while they are resting on their back. It is commonly used alongside other conservative strategies, such as supervised tummy time, positioning advice, and regular monitoring of your baby's head shape and development.

During your baby's assessment, Dr Carina will evaluate head shape, neck movement, posture, and overall musculoskeletal function. If appropriate, she can advise whether a Mimos® Pillow may be a suitable addition to your baby's individual care plan.

Every baby is different, and recommendations are always tailored to your child's age, development, and presentation. Where appropriate, Dr Carina works collaboratively with your GP, paediatrician, child health nurse, or other healthcare providers to ensure your baby receives the most appropriate care.
