Cranial osteopathy is a subtle
but potent form of treatment.
Cranial osteopathy is a gentle treatment approach that aims to harness the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. I have been practising cranial osteopathy in London since 2004 and I have found it to be an extremely effective way of approaching all kinds of health problems. Cranial techniques are especially suitable for babies, pregnant women and children as it is such a delicate approach.
It’s all about supporting the body so that it can make the necessary changes itself.
Our bodies have an inherent ability to heal themselves. The same innate intelligence that grows our bodies from a single cell also heals our wounds and sets our immune system in motion when we are ill. Cranial osteopathy is all about listening to this intelligence and helping it to do its work.
As osteopaths learn to listen to the body, they find that it is possible to ‘tune in’ to what any part is doing. In this way, it is possible to get very detailed information about how the body is working and to support it as it works out what it needs to do to work better.
Cranial treatment involves supporting your body to rebalance itself and encouraging it to release any patterns of stress and tension that may be obstructing its normal healing mechanisms. This approach was called ‘cranial osteopathy’ because it was first formally taught in relation to the skull but it works just as well for any part of the body.
