Cranial osteopathy is a gentle and non evasive treatment on the skull that can be used on any age group but is particularly useful in treating very young babies, toddlers and children. Its main principle relies upon rebalancing subtle rhythmical shape changes in the skull known as the cranial rhythm. Babies in particular can benefit from cranial osteopathy. When a child is born the soft bones in their skull overlap to deal with the pressures of birth. Compression of the skull and incomplete remoulding after birth can lead to a number of problems. The osteopaths at The Backbone have experience in using cranial therapy to treat a wide range of problems. They have used the cranial techniques with new borns as well as older children and also adults.
