Is That My Child?
Dr of Chiropractic, Robin Pauc has been seeing children previously diagnosed with learning and behavioral difficulties for several years, with excellent results.
He approaches learning difficulties, including Dyslexia, ADD, OCD, ADHD, Dyspraxia and Tourette’s syndrome of childhood, from a truly ground-breaking perspective:
All human babies are born prematurely and develop special brain cells four months after birth. These cells are vulnerable; various factors can hinder their development in the early years and in the womb. The effects of which may blight childhood and marginalize a child at school and leave them with difficulties in adulthood.
ADHD, ADD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, OCD and Tourette's syndrome are all symptoms of Developmental Delay rather than separate diseases, and they improve with Dr Pauc's methods.
Darren Barnes-Heath DC has been working closely with Dr Pauc for the last five years. Newland Chiropractic Clinic is one of twelve Tinsley House Clinics across the UK helping children with Developmental Delay.
We suggest parents wishing to take their child to a Tinsley House Clinic, and all teachers who teach children with special needs read "Is That My Child?" It brings neurological development into the understanding of the lay-person, it will help you appreciate the process of Developmental Delay and empathise with these children.
It contains:.
Effects - good and bad - of certain foods and supplements on the brain.
Use of exercise in the management of developmental delay
Exercises and computer programs that may expand your child’s neural function.
Case histories of children for whom this plan has worked.

Our approach
"Darren always gave us clear/ thorough information in an understanding, caring professional way. He listened to concerns from the adults and child’s aspect. We saw a clear improvement in Sam within a few treatments.
Sam has always found it difficult to find true friends as he struggled to express his thoughts and feelings and so was withdrawn. Learning and reading was difficult and memory retention lasted less than 2 weeks (e.g. times tables up to 15 were easy for Sam, until after the Christmas break when he had forgotten them all.) Sam had musculo-skeletal problems with an arched back with his neck and his shoulders pulled forwards.
After considering several ‘health’ treatments a local Chiropractor recommended Darren Barnes-Heath at the Newland Chiropractic Clinic, Lincoln, we have not looked back since. Sam underwent a series of tests to assess his muscular, skeletal and reading abilities. After Sam’s assessment we were informed of potential ways for his improvement and felt confident with the information and approach offered.
We are convinced that Sam has greatly benefited from his treatment at Newlands, he now chats much more, is far more confident, remembers most events/facts and his reading and understanding has greatly improved, his treatment has made him a more contented individual.
We are currently awaiting Sam’s GCSE mock exam results, prior to his treatment we only expected poor results. At his last parents evening it was revealed that Sam could potentially receive 3-4 Grade ‘C’ and possibly even a ‘B’ Grade – what an improvement, far better than we ever anticipated.
Since a small boy Sam has been part of the local swimming club, we have noticed that his improved coordination, concentration and technique have increased his swimming times. He is also a very keen Water polo player, the treatment he has received has also helped his physical ability and accuracy skills due to his skeletal improvements. As Sam’s understanding of words has increased he is now able to understand the game play situations better. Sam now competition swims and plays Waterpolo at County and Regional level."
