Cranial osteopathy is widely known for the treatment of babies but, is equally effective for children, adults and the elderly.

In any osteopathic treatment, the whole body is involved and, improvements are often noted in many different areas. For example, it is not uncommon for digestive problems to resolve when the spine or pelvis are being treated because of back pain.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ padding_bottom=”15″][vc_custom_heading text=”What does cranial treatment feel like?” font_container=”tag:h5|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Cranial osteopathic treatment is very gentle and relaxing. During the treatment some people are aware of different sensations, such as mild tension, aching or sensitivity that gradually disappear, or of feelings of warmth and relaxation.

Other people are unaware of anything happening at all during the treatment but are aware that they feel very different when they get up afterwards. Most people become deeply relaxed during treatment and it is not uncommon for people to fall asleep.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ margin_bottom=”15″][vc_custom_heading text=”Does cranial osteopathy have a scientific basis?” font_container=”tag:h5|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Cranial osteopathy is difficult to ‘prove’. But modern scientific understanding of physiology, in particular the physiology of fascia and electromagnetics in the body, are increasingly validating the theory and palpatory experiences of cranial osteopaths.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_color=”#33cec8″ equal_height=”yes”][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_empty_space][agni_button value="Need more help?" url="www.aleksandra.one/contact" alignment="center"][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_section][/vc_section]
