During labour, the baby is subjected to enormous strains and forces and she twists and turns to squeeze through the mother's relatively narrow pelvis. Most babies recover from this process perfectly easily, but some are left with a variety of strain patterns in the head, jaw, neck, back or shoulders which can leave them unsettled, making the early weeks or months of life difficult for the whole family. Osteopathy is a very gentle form of treatment which aims to remove these strain patterns and restore health and balance to your baby.
As children grow they can experience aches and pains, growing pains, spinal issues and problems with posture. Osteopathy can help to alleviate these issues before they become long-term problems.
