Craniopathy for babies is also a specialty of ours. Giving birth can sometimes alter the shape of the baby’s head and can make breathing quite hard for the baby. By gently using hands and fingers to correct distortions and compressions to a baby’s cranium, spine and pelvis it is possible to alter the shape of the head, normalise neural function and restore a child to a peaceful, happy and healthy state. Improvements can be noticed in just a few days. Above all these are very safe procedures and highly preferable to medication.
This dist
ressed baby was delivered by emergency c-section after first passing through the birth canal back to front. His head had become widened at the back and narrow at the front, with a twist resulting in one eye being drawn back. As you can see in the picture, one hand is placed behind his head and a finger placed on the roof of his mouth. Gentle pressure is added to the palate, which then normalises the cranial plates.
