“Its 4 o clock in the morning. I am woken again by deafening crying. This is the third time tonight, the 7th night in a row and the 6th month of little or no sleep…….WHY WON’T MY BABY SLEEP??”

Did you know that because we take a holistic approach to your baby’s health Osteopaths often spot the hidden reason why some babies are slow to settle?

We take a detailed pregnancy and birth history. We are like detectives looking for clues…..
Sometimes a baby won’t sleep because its head is still residually irritated from a long and complicated birth. On other occasions it can be because the cord was wound tightly around his or her neck. Other babies may find it hard to sleep after a very fast delivery: they still feel a little unsafe to rest.

Osteopaths provide a safe solution by using techniques that are specialised for little babies. Our gentle hands-on work can restore harmony to the body after the many and various irritations that are common after the birth process.
