Paediatric CARE

Paediatric osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that supports the healthy development of babies and children. Using a combination of structural and cranial treatments, our Osteopath Maria helps to release tension, improve mobility, and restore balance in the body. These techniques are particularly soft and well-suited for newborns and young children.

Benefits of paediatric osteopathy include:

- Supporting digestion helping with constipation and gut health. - easing colic or reflux symptoms - Improving sleep and relaxation through cranial encouraging a calm and balanced nervous system - Aiding postural development and mobility. - Relieving tension from birth strains, and asymmetries (side preferences). - treating tensions in upper body helping with feeding difficulties or tongue-tie -alleviate neck tensions (torticollis) or flat head (plagiocephaly)

Our Osteopath Maria tailors her treatment to the child’s needs, using safe and effective techniques to promote comfort and well-being of the child.

All children can benefit from a general osteopathic check-up and treatment, especially after birth. The delivery process can place strain on a baby’s body, leading to tension or discomfort. Osteopathy helps to gently release these strains and support their early development.
