How Osteopathy can help O


steopathic care is wonderful during pregnancy. Not only can it help relieve some of the common symptoms of pregnancy but it can also help labour and delivery go smoothly.

Discomfort whilst lying on his/her back; Plagiocephaly, Flat Head or Odd Shaped Head; Suckling/Feeding difficulties; Colic or Excessive Crying; Regurgitation;


Sinus problems and Glue ear; Sleep disturbances; Unsettled restless babies.


As well as helping babies, Jane Hartley also treats toddlers who suffer with any of the above problems.
