Cranial Osteopathy Stamford
Cranial Osteopathy is a form of osteopathy that is very gentle and suitable for most people. It involves the application of gentle, subtle pressure in specific areas to help release tensions in the body. It is particularly suited to babies and we are taking part in a national research study into treatment of crying babies. Contact our practice in Stamford to book an appointment.
A Cranial osteopath is an Osteopath who has first qualified as an Osteopath and has then undergone further postgraduate training. Cranial Osteopaths are trained to feel very subtle, rhythmical shape changes in all body tissues and use this to assess and teat the various strains in the body. When we experience physical or emotional stresses our body tissues tend to tighten up. The body may have been able to adapt to these effects at the time but often a lasting strain remains. This can lead to ongoing restrictions of movement which can then make it more difficult for the body to deal with subsequent injuries or strains. Cranial osteopathy is a gentle yet very effective approach and is suitable for all ages. It can be a useful approach to those who need a gentle approach.
