I'm used to providing cranial osteopathy for babies, kids and toddlers in Bristol, and thought it would be good to further highlight specific treatments available at my Henleaze clinic.
Cranial osteopathy is a gentle form of osteopathy that is perfect for the release of strains and stresses within the body. It is suitable for babies, toddlers, older kids as well as adults in Bristol.
It is called cranial because it usually involves very gentle osteopathic treatment of the head, although other parts of the body may also be treated such as the sacrum (base of the spine).
I've been treating babies, toddlers and older kids using cranial osteopathy in Bristol for over 22 years, and it is particularly well-suited for young patients who are still developing.
The most important point to make is that cranial osteopathy is safe and non-invasive.
It can help kids who may have sustained activity-related injuries, growing pain, general aches, headaches as well as postural issues.
For babies and toddlers, cranial osteopathic treatments can be good for colic, unsettled babies, those struggling to feed and infants with sleeping issues.
Cranial osteopathy can be highly effective in helping kids and toddlers to feel more settled, and calmer, and to enjoy more consistent and higher-quality levels of sleep.
When it comes to treating younger patients, it depends mainly on their age and the condition being treated. I offer full consultations for all patients of all ages.
Babies and children heal quickly, so my job as an experienced and leading Bristol osteopath is to help the healing process and get their bodies back in balance.
