Paediatric Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial osteopathy for children involves subtly cradling and lightly massaging your child’s head, spine and body to feel for and release imbalances. Our aim is to foster healthy realignment, improve fluid dynamics and alleviate any muscular tension and stress resulting from environmental traumas.
In addition, our appointments also include gentle stretching, massage and take-home play based exercises for your kids to continue at home.
