Babies & Children

So much growth and development occurs within the first few years of our lives. That’s why it’s an important time to be able to provide the best potential for our babies and children to achieve their developmental milestones. Everyone grows and adapts at different rates so we aim to support your baby and child through this natural process.

As an Osteopath, I truly love working with children and have, therefore, been continuing my learning in various avenues around the treatment of children. Treatment is gentle and can be adapted to suit your baby’s or child’s needs. So, if it’s sleep time, feeding time or play time, that’s fine as we work to your schedule.

Common conditions seen in babies:

• Reflux
• Colic
• Post birth trauma
• Breastfeeding issues and attachment

As your child continues to grow and explore the world, they will encounter some bumps and illnesses along the way. They usually bounce back and learn quickly but we are here to lend a hand when needed.

As your child continues to grow and explore the world, they will encounter some tumbles, bumps and illnesses along the way. They are very resilient and learn quickly. However, sometimes they need a helping hand and this is where Osteopathy comes in handy. All Osteopathic care administered to both babies and children is gentle. A detailed history and thorough examination are carried out before a treatment plan is applied.
