👶 How osteopathy can support your baby 🤍

Osteopathy for babies uses gentle, hands-on techniques — including
cranial osteopathy — to assess and support how your baby’s body moves
and functions.

During and after birth, babies can experience tension in their
muscles, joints, or tissues. Osteopathic care aims to:
🧠 Support the body’s natural balance and alignment
✨Promote freer movement where muscles have been tight.
🍼 Help with feeding or latching difficulties
😴Helps to soothe and relax your baby

Cranial osteopathy uses very light touch to feel subtle movements
within the head and body, helping identify areas that may benefit from
gentle support.

Each session is tailored to your baby’s individual needs — always
gentle, safe, and respectful of their comfort.

Every baby’s journey is unique — osteopathic care focuses on helping
them feel more settled, comfortable, and at ease in their growing
bodies.

✨ Don’t wait any longer — your body is asking for attention ✨

If you’ve been putting up with that ache, stiffness, or recurring pain, this is your sign to take action. 🩵
Pain is your body’s way of saying something needs support — not something to ignore or “push through.”

The longer we leave it, the more the body compensates… and that’s when other areas start to feel the strain.

Whether it’s back pain, tension headaches, postural discomfort, or recovery after pregnancy or injury —osteopathy can help you move better, feel lighter, and support your long-term wellbeing. 🌿

You deserve to feel good in your body — not just “cope.”

Let’s start the process of getting you back to balance.

Your posture speaks before you do. 🧍‍♀️🧍‍♂️

Poor posture doesn’t just affect how you look — it impacts your spine, muscles, digestion, breathing, and even mood. The good news? A few simple daily habits can make a huge difference.

Here are 3 posture tips I give almost every patient:
🔹 1. Uncross your legs
It feels natural, but sitting cross-legged for hours can twist your pelvis and strain your lower back. Sit with both feet flat on the floor and your knees at hip level.
🔹 2. Reset your desk posture
Every time you check your phone or laptop, ask:
* Are my shoulders relaxed?
* Is my screen at eye level?
* Am I sitting up tall (not slouching)?
Posture is about awareness, not perfection.
🔹 3. Stretch once an hour
Set a timer. Stand up, roll your shoulders, stretch your neck and hips. It only takes 30 seconds but keeps your body moving and your posture in check.

✨ Consistency is key. These micro-changes add up over time.
💬 Which one do you need to work on most?
