The Osteopathic Clinic at Me too & Co opened in September 2007 offering osteopathic treatment to children with all sorts of additional needs and their siblings. Treatment sessions are held weekly during term time on Tuesday afternoons 2.30 to 5.30 p.m.
Osteopathy is an ideal treatment for babies and children because it is safe and very gentle.
It can benefit a wide range of health problems from glue ear, asthma, and allergies to digestive disturbances such as colic and reflux. Osteopathy can also help in more complex situations such as Cerebral Palsy, Autism and learning difficulties, as osteopaths look at the health of the individual as a whole not just individual symptoms.
Osteopaths use a very subtle contact to release tensions within the body, freeing blood and nerve supplies to encourage the body’s natural healing process, helping to restore health and well being. Most children find the treatment relaxing and enjoyable.
Treatments are offered in a relaxed informal atmosphere and are tailored to meet each child’s needs. An initial assessment is made on the first visit where a comprehensive case history is taken, an osteopathic examination is made, and you will have an opportunity to ask questions. This takes about an hour and we try to include some treatment on the first visit. Follow up treatments are 30 minutes.
Our osteopaths, Janice Moss and Mary-Jane Anderton, are registered with the General Osteopathic Council and have completed extensive postgraduate training specialising in the treatment of children.
They will be very happy to talk to you in advance, or spend a session with you, if you would like further information about treatment.
A donation of £5.00 is optional.
