Osteopathy for babies
As any mother who has laboured will tell you, the forces involved, even in a normal labour, are strong! There may be a lot of stresses on the baby's skull and spine from their position in the womb or from the birth. Birth complications or interventions may be part of your baby's story.
Muscular tensions can impact on babies in many different ways, such as discomfort in the feeding position, favouring turning their head one way when sleeping and difficulties with relaxing. Very gentle osteopathic techniques can help to improve this. Combining this with specialist knowledge to give you advice and support means that most people see a happier calmer baby very quickly.
