Cranial and Osteopathy Treatment
Serving Seattle and the surrounding communities, we provide thoughtful care tailored to your needs.
Osteopathic treatment of the newborn or infant is important on a number of levels. Osteopathy addresses structural restrictions and compression forces related to the birth process and position in the womb. Often specific treatment for muscular tension, feeding difficulties, torticollis and plagiocephaly is beneficial. Also, digestive issues and sleep issues are often relieved with treatment.
Osteopathy offers many benefits for infants, toddlers, and children. We recommend treatment both to support growth and development and to address specific concerns. To support development, treatment is offered at major milestones; such as crawling and walking, to support speech development, during periods of rapid growth, after repeated head bonks/falls and during/after sports seasons.
