Cranial Osteopathy

Cranial osteopathy is a gentle, relaxing style of treatment that supports the body’s innate capacity for self-regulation, self-maintenance and repair. Every parent knows that what a child needs most when they are in distress is to be held. Adults are no different.

There is a large and growing body of evidence to support the therapeutic use of touch in a wide range of contexts. Cranial osteopaths harness and enhance the power of touch by studying anatomy and phsyiology in great depth and learning to synchronise with the many ways in which our bodies strive to maintain and restore balance, harmony and health.

Cranial treatment is very gentle, making it suitable for the most vulnerable patients, including babies, children and pregnant women, as well as older people and those suffering from complex issues with their health. Most people find the treatment deeply relaxing and the state it induces is often compared to meditation.
