Description: Pediatric osteopathy for growing wellness. From birth trauma, breastfeeding issues, developmental delay, breathing issues, to musculoskeletal issues.
Osteopathy employs a wholistic approach to treating the child’s body, using hands-on techniques to support the body’s self-healing abilities. At the Children’s Osteopathic Centre, the osteopath is most interested in free motion and alignment of the body framework and its relationship to organ function, circulation, and the nervous system. Treatment and management are tailored to the individual child or baby.
The Children’s Osteopathic Centre is located within the grounds of the Melbourne Therapy Centre, a not-for-profit organisation. The Centre incorporates integrative doctors, nurses, naturopaths, masseurs, acupuncturist, maternal health nurse and a psychologist. https://www.melbournetherapy.org.au/
