Cranial osteopathy is a subtle and refined approach to osteopathy, following all of the same principles and used throughout the body, not just the head. Cranial techniques are safe, gentle and non-manipulative. They are appropriate for people of all ages and are often used when treating infants and children.

What may Cranial Osteopathy Help?

Cranial osteopaths using this approach aim to treat the whole person not just the condition, so a very wide range of situations may benefit from treatment. These may include back and neck pain; joint pain and sports injuries; headaches, and migraine prevention; digestive difficulties, and general relaxation, health and well-being. Cranial osteopathy is also often used to treat babies, and children, because of its gentle approach.
