Why to consult an osteopath for my baby ? The birth process can be one of the most stressful events in our lives. Babies are subjected to enormous force to pass through their mum’s pelvis. Your baby’s head is designed to adapt to this force. This normal physiological process is called ‘moulding’. During the first few days of life your baby will undergo the normal physiological process of ‘unmoulding’, releasing any strain absorbed during labour and re-establishing health and balance. Often the unmoulding process is incomplete, especially if the birth was difficult, such as a long labour, a very short labour or when it involves intervention such as ventouse or forceps. As both the head and body are compressed and squeezed during this journey, any part of the baby’s head and body can absorb stress and retain strain. This may mean that your baby is experiencing discomfort in their head or body. How the osteopath can help your baby ? Osteopaths work with various of techniques. It is a completely natural therapy, which identify and treats mobility restrictions. By working on the integral structure of the body, and looking at how bones, muscles and connective tissues work together, osteopathy will restore the body of your baby to a balance.

La naissance peut être l'un des événements le plus stressant de notre vie. Durant l'accouchement, les bébés sont effectivement soumis à d'importantes contraintes lors du passage au travers du pelvis de leur mère. Cependant, la tête de votre bébé va s'adapter lors de ce processus qui est tout à fait normal. Sachez que pendant les premiers jours de vie, le crâne de votre bébé va alors retrouver sa position physiologique. Néanmoins, ce retour à la normal est souvent incomplet, surtout quand l'accouchement a été très long ou très court et lors d'utilisation de forceps ou ventouses. Qui plus est, pendant l'accouchement, le corps de votre bébé est également comprimé et soumis aux mêmes contraintes qui peuvent être retenues par ce dernier. Ainsi, cela induira un inconfort chez votre bébé au niveau de la tête ou du corps. Comment un ostéopathe peut-il aider mon bébé ? L'ostéopathe travaille avec différentes techniques naturelles pour identifier et traiter les restrictions de mobilités. En travaillant sur l'ensemble de la structure du corps, l'ostéopathe restore son bon fonctionnement. Quand y amener mon bébé ?
