*A woman’s body changes during pregnancy. These changes include the softening of ligaments, weight increase and changes to posture. This can lead to additional pressure on joints in various parts of the body, including the spine and pelvis. Osteopathy may help relieve the stresses and strains on your body during pregnancy and after birth.
**After delivery, gentle osteopathic treatment can help soothe and relax your baby. Babies’ skeletons are softer than adults' and osteopaths use very gentle techniques, such as cranial osteopathy, when treating babies.
Katherine, Madeleine and Tom
utilise a variety of traditional structural and cranial osteopathic techniques in their treatments. The practice encompasses patients from newborn and childhood through pregnancy and work life, to sport and DIY fanatics, retirement and the elderly.
