Common reasons why parents bring their children to see our Brisbane Osteopaths
In some cases, Osteopathy may also have a positive effect on conditions that are not primarily musculoskeletal, but are caused by, or worsened by, tension or dysfunction in our muscles, and the way we move. While Osteopathy does not treat the conditions themselves, painful musculoskeletal symptoms related to Asthma, and some dental conditions may also be alleviated with Osteopathic care.
Constant, low-level pain or discomfort such as a headaches or tight leg muscles, can often leave us feeling "on-edge", and it's the same for kids. By reducing tension in the muscles and joints, Osteopathy aims to have a positive and calming effect on the nervous system. This approach may help when anxiety or restlessness becomes problematic in children (but only if muscle tension or discomfort are present) and an Osteopathic assessment will help identify potential contributing factors within the body.
If you are still unsure if Osteopathy is the right choice for your child or baby, we would be happy to arrange a free phone chat with our Osteopath on (07) 3366 7970 so you can discuss your concerns directly with a practitioner.
