Cranial osteopathic treatment with Stephanie McMahon
Cranial osteopathy is a treatment technique involving the application of subtle yet specific pressure to promote relaxation and encourage the release of tension from the head and body. It is a very gentle, non-invasive, pain-free approach that is suitable for all ages, including babies.
I employ a refined sense of touch, assessing both structural position and the quality of movement within tissues – analysing and correcting patterns of strain to improve function both locally and throughout the body as a whole.
Is cranial osteopathy right for me?
Cranial osteopathy is gentle enough to settle fractious babies, when mechanical strain is causing them distress, hence this treatment is ideal for infant and children when the body mechanics are undesirably affecting their comfort and health. However this approach is equally applicable to people of all ages as it assists and optimises structure integrity, tissue function and the physiology of repair.
Acute injuries respond well to the gentleness of this approach, and chronic postural or repetitive strain injuries can be modified because the method works by modifying the underlying strain patterns. It is even applicable to sports injuries, as it facilitates the understanding of kinetic chains. Your whole body can benefit from the subtle cranial osteopathic method.
