Cranial Osteopathy
The Children’s Clinic has a very experienced osteopath who uses cranial osteopathy in their treatments, Kate Hands.
Osteopathy is concerned with the structure of the body and its movement. Mechanical disorders, even when not obvious, have a profound effect on the functioning of all body systems, which is why osteopathy can be so beneficial. Osteopathy is about health and wellbeing as a whole, and treatment is holistic, so patients do not need to show any specific condition to benefit from our treatments. However, osteopathy is thought to help optimise the body’s resources leading to better health.
Cranial osteopathy is a refined osteopathic treatment using gentle manipulative pressure to relieve strains and stresses throughout the body, including the head. It is widely used for babies and children as it is the gentlest form of osteopathy.
Kate treats adults as well as children, but the subsidies are only offered to the children of low-income families. Each osteopath is fully qualified and registered with the General Osteopathic Council. Visit the website Lostwithiel Complementary Health Clinic for further information on prices and for FAQs.
