Babies & Children Osteopathy

There is no minimum age for osteopathic care. Babies can be assessed and treated from just a few days or weeks after birth, whenever parents feel ready to travel. Care is always adapted to your child's age, individual needs and comfort.

Absolutely. Parents are welcome to stay with their child throughout the appointment.

Absolutely. If your baby needs a feed, comfort or a nappy change during their appointment, that's completely fine. We can simply pause and continue when they're ready.

Yes, where appropriate. If your baby is settled or asleep, we can work around their sleep and comfort rather than expecting them to be awake for their appointment.

No referral is generally required to make an appointment. If your child is already seeing another healthcare professional, we're happy to work alongside them where appropriate.
