Osteopathy
may be an ideal approach for the newborn and children. It
is safe, efficient, does not have any contraindications, and
can be applied from the first days of life. Furthermore, the
specific, delicate techniques of paediatric osteopathy are
not painful.
The Functional
Technique, the Sutherland
Technique and Cranio-sacral
osteopathy are particularly recommended for disorders
in babies and infants, and have no contra-indications. A check-up
on newly born babies can be very useful in preventing future
problems. Osteopaths specialising in early-infancy osteopathy
work at our clinics.
As in the case of adults, every child is accepted and examined
by a doctor. This is followed up by the osteopath who undertakes
clinical observation.
