Infant/Children Initial Osteopathy
Description
Osteopathy, a gentle and holistic approach to healthcare, can be beneficial for children, particularly infants, addressing various concerns like musculoskeletal issues, digestive problems, and sleep disturbances. Pediatric osteopathy focuses on improving overall body mobility and addressing specific concerns of the child. Osteopathic techniques are non-invasive and often involve gentle movements to relieve strain and tension. Conditions Osteopathy Can Help With in Children: Musculoskeletal Problems: Osteopathy can help with postural imbalances, growth-related pains, and sports injuries, improving joint mobility and alignment. Digestive Issues: Osteopathy can address colic, reflux, and other digestive problems by supporting the digestive system and relieving tension. Sleep Disturbances: Osteopathy can help restless babies and children by addressing physical restrictions that may be interfering with sleep. Feeding and Latch Difficulties: Jaw and neck tension can affect feeding. Osteopathic treatment can gently address these issues to make feeding easier. Cranial Issues: Osteopathy, particularly cranial osteopathy, can address plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome) and other cranial issues in infants. Other Conditions: Osteopathy can also help with recurrent sinusitis, torticollis, and other musculoskeletal concerns.
