Chiropractic
with Dr Bec Sandell
The
Coastal Cocoon
Gentle Chiropractic care throughout pregnancy and postpartum, for newborns and young children.
Located in San Remo, NSW
Why The Coastal Cocoon?
Anyone, of any age, is welcome here (including the dads and the older siblings!). However, The Coastal Cocoon has lovingly been created to support women in the early stages of motherhood. Women are often expected to create, grow, birth and care for small humans in a world that has a million opinions. Whether you're a first time mum or a 10th time mum, it can be confusing to navigate.
The Coastal Cocoon is a place where listening comes first.
You will not be told WHAT to do here. We will work TOGETHER to figure out how to solve your concerns.

The Coastal Cocoon
Can I help you?
My aim is to offer a safe space, free of judgement, saddling alongside you in any and all of your birthing and parenting choices. I am here to listen, encourage and assist. Women have come to see me for many reasons such as achieving comfort during pregnancy, preparing for birth, help with newborn feeding concerns, assistance in trying to understand their babies colic presentation etc.
I will help you find the help you need.
01. Pregnancy Chiropractic
Pregnancy is a big deal. I am here to help you mitigate any discomfort (even if you've been told its normal). I am here to support you in your birthing choices and assist your body in preparation for birth. There is so much to sit with, decide on and consider while you grow a human in your body, it can be overwhelming. I am here to walk with you in that journey if you need.
02. Newborn Sessions
I could write a book on how Chiropractic may be helpful for new borns. From being cramped and then squeezed on the way out, to discovering breath, light, sound, pooping, figuring out feeding etc There is SO MUCH a newborn is discovering for the first time. I am here to help your newborns nervous system, coordination and tone adapt to their new world. With very gentle (no cracking!) techniques, together we can improve their level of comfort and body functions.
03. Post-Partum Support
Helping your body do its thing as it rearranges itself back to a non-pregnant state. Healing while sleep deprived, being time poor, feeling mentally exhausted, and keeping up with the pressures of everyday life can be extraordinarily, well, A LOT. I am here to help your body regain its strength, mitigate tensions/tightnesses inherent with constantly tending to a newborn, and encourage you in this transitional time.
About Dr Bec (chiro)
I've studies for too many years (8 years, 3 degrees!), in a giant effort to be ready to be of use.
My biggest lesson so far is 'If a mum says something isn't right, you better listen to her!'. e have a 6th sense about our own bodies and about our babies. Our intuition is powerful and is not to be dismissed.
We might not know what, but we just know something is off.
I bring my 14 years experience to you. With an absolute passion for mothers. Our journeys into and of motherhood are life altering (to say the very least). I have created, grown and birthed 2 wonderful boys. I have (am!) navigating my very own motherhood journey. And when something is off in my mum gut, having a practitioner who listens and assists (not dismisses and directs) feels like true support.
We (Hubby and our 2 boys) decided on a sea change. We moved up to the central coast from south west Sydney, April 2026. We LOVE IT HERE, and cannot wait for our first summer, the beach, the lake, the chill coastal vibes. Before moving up here, I had created and grown a thriving Chiropractic business serving south west Sydney mummas for approximately the last 8 years. After a heartfelt goodbye, I am ready to do the same here on the Central Coast.
I love an ocean swim even in the middle of winter. I love a cup of coffee of a morning, and an earl grey tea of an afternoon. I love an adventure, literally anywhere. I relax with a good reno show or catching up on WWE (yuuup). And as cliche as this might be, I love learning, I froth a paediatric chiro seminar, I'll wake up early just to sit online and learn from the best.
I look forward to meeting many of you as I open the humble little doors (door) of The Coastal Cocoon.
