Babies
Parents are often directed to come and see us by their midwife or health visitor - treatment is extremely gentle, safe and effective
Cranial osteopathy
The journey of the baby’s delivery into the world is perhaps the most natural thing in the world, but not all go perfectly naturally!
Osteopaths work on the principle that if the structure of the body is free of tension and properly aligned then all functions healthily.
We treat children from newborn upwards from calming unsettled babies from birth to supporting the developing structure through the growing years further ahead.
Common reasons to come
Prolonged periods of distress – babies are difficult to settle.
Stiffness in the neck or shoulders.
Head turning more easily to one side.
Difficulty establishing easy relaxed feeding.
Slightly misshapen head.
Increased mucus - nasal and chest congestion.
