CRANIAL OSTEOPATHY
What is Osteopathy?
Cranial Osteopathy is a specialist branch of osteopathy that uses subtle, gentle techniques to assess and treat restrictions throughout the body. Rather than focusing on forceful manipulation, treatment works with the body’s natural rhythms to encourage balance, improve mobility and support the body’s own healing processes.
Suitable for patients of all ages, Cranial Osteopathy can be particularly beneficial where a gentler approach is preferred. Cranial Osteopathy Can Help With:
- Headaches and migraines
- Neck and jaw pain (TMJ)
- Stress and tension
- Sleep disturbances
- Pregnancy-related aches and pains
- Postural tension
- Back and shoulder pain
- Babies with feeding difficulties*
- Colic and unsettled babies*
*For babies and children, Paediatric Osteopathy may also be used as part of a personalised treatment plan
