Osteopaths treat people of all ages. As babies skeletons are softer than an adults, osteopaths use gentler techniques than with our adult patients.
Cranial osteopathy is an extremely safe and gentle treatment approach which aims to ease stresses and strains that osteopaths believe can lead to unsettled or uncomfortable babies. Treatment aims to soothe and relax your baby and, wherever possible, we will teach you techniques to do the same!
Osteopathy is considered a complementary therapy, therefore we work alongside doctors and midwives to ensure the best care for our patients. Osteopaths are trained to screen for medical conditions and we will tell you if you need to see your doctor or midwife.
