Children's Osteopathy
health through touch
Osteopaths who treat infants and children should have completed special training in treating children with their 5-year osteopathic degree.
Specific knowledge of anatomy, physiology and the sensorimotor and emotional development phases are necessary in the treatment of children,
also a special sensitivity and a sensitive perception .
OSTEOPATHY IN INFANTS
Problems can arise with newborns due to the lack of space in the womb, during natural birth, caesarean sections or ventouse births.
During birth, the baby's skull and body are subjected to strong pressure, which results in a physiological displacement of the skull bones, which are still soft and not firmly connected.
If nerves are compressed here, it can be, por example sucking and swallowing problems, colic, flatulence, sleeping problems or excessive crying
