Cranial treatment is very gentle and is therefore safe for all ages but in particular for babies and children. Parents have reported excellent results when their children have had this type of treatment.

Birth is a dramatic event the stresses and strains involved in moving from the warmth and comfort of the mother’s womb to being born can leave slight structural imbalances for the baby. This method of treatment can help relieve the resultant tensions and reduce the problems caused by them.

What will happen during an appointment?

As with any other appointment there will be a detailed case history taken form you that will also include questions about the pregnancy and parental health so I have a full picture of what has influenced your child’s health.

In much the same way as it would be with any other appointment I will carry out a detailed visual and hands on examination. This will be tailored to the age of the child as babies obviously require a different approach to the older children. Throughout I will discuss with you my findings and the best treatment options.

Treatment will generally be a combination of a cranial and structural approach which will be very gentle and safe. Specific gentle pressure is applied where necessary to enable the inherent healing ability of the body to affect the release of stresses.
