Paediatric Osteopathy
The team at The Osteopathic Centre is committed to providing the highest quality care for your child’s health. We understand that each family has different needs and we will work together as a team to ensure you receive the best treatment possible.
Our Osteopaths have experience of seeing babies and children with a range of common conditions like colic, constipation, breastfeeding latching difficulties, scoliosis, sleep, and growing pains.
We also treat older children and teenagers who may be experiencing pain or discomfort from sports injuries or other musculoskeletal problems.
Let's start with the newborn and babies we see:
Childbirth is a wondrous but sometimes traumatic process for both the mother and the baby. Whether it was a difficult birth or not, the birth combined with pre-natal positioning in the womb and the postnatal sleeping position may lead to functional tightness in the connective tissue of newborn babies as they try to adapt to the outside world. If not addressed it is possible that this may be a factor that contributes to the development of common problems that are experienced by babies and infants.
