Children's Osteopathy

The European School of Osteopathy has now opened its Diagnostic Ultrasound Clinic for the assessment of Musculo-Skeletal Disorders.

The ESO Clinic's Mother and Baby Scheme is a new low-cost community scheme allowing new mums and their babies (up to 1 year) to come along to the clinic for a thorough osteopathic check and assessment, and if required on-going treatments, for just £5 per appointment.

Why would a baby need an Osteopath? This is a common question when speaking to parents. The first thing to understand is that an Osteopath does not only treat spinal pain. They treat the whole body and can therefore contribute to treating a wide range of conditions such as migraine, asthma, and irritable bowel. Therefore an Osteopath would not be seeing a baby because it necessarily had something wrong with it's spine but for conditions like colic, restless sleep, and feeding difficulties.
