Osteopathy - Babies

What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a beautiful approach to the harmony and health of the living body. 

Osteopathy can facilitate and support this process by restoring movement, undo patterns of holding and bracing and acknowledge emotional components manifesting somatically in our bodies. 

How can Osteopathy support your (newborn) baby?

Birth is often a challenging experience, and many parents are eager to ensure their newborn is thriving in the early weeks and months. Babies face a lot of adjustment as they transition from the womb to the outside world, especially when it comes to feeding and settling into a routine. Osteopathy can offer valuable support during this time. 

As a parent, common concerns may include:

  • Persistent crying
  • Digestive discomfort
  • Difficulty relaxing
  • Sleep disturbances

However, each baby is unique.

Osteopathy in the cranial field is a safe, gentle, and non-invasive technique, encouraging your baby’s body to naturally respond and heal itself through treatment.

Please note that it’s not uncommon for babies to be a little unsettled for up to 24 hours following treatment.

Typically, a treatment plan involves 2-4 sessions.

Marie-Anne Onraed’s offering on Tuesday between 10am to 12pm and Friday 9.30am to 2.30pm.

The latest piece from local artist @jencableart (Hothouse Flower) to beautifully adorn the wall of Moon. Hothouse flowers' colours may be brilliant and their petals flawless, yet their beauty is fragile—remove them from the tightly controlled environment of the greenhouse, and they wither. Every aspect of their existence depends on external care. They embody luxury, thriving in isolation from the harsher realities of wind, rain, and change.   In contrast, wild flowers can emerge anywhere, on rocky soil, under shifting skies, and on wind swept plains (much like the Heath at the moment😉).  Their blossoms endure cold snaps, nibbles from local insects, and sudden brushes with curious dogs.  Though their stems may bend and their petals may bear marks of struggle, these are marks of endurance, not weakness. True vitality doesn’t depend on shelter from difficulty but on balance with the environment, responding flexibly to what life provides. Where the hot house flower dazzles briefly, natural health endures. One fades with the loss of its careful protection; the other thrives precisely because it has learned to live and bloom in the open air.   So this Easter break, take a moment to step onto the Heath or Waterlow Park and enjoy the daffodils nodding gently in the breeze and the last of the crocuses pushing through. Take a minute to enjoy the crisp air, flashes of green, new life, and the distant rustle of trees whilst you enjoy a quiet moment of renewal and connection with the season.

Happy Mother's Day! 💛 We’re sharing something very close to our hearts today. We're fundraising to keep the doors of our local New Mama & Parent Drop-In open for the next three months — and we need the community's help. Since June 2024, Moon Community Health's free Drop-In has welcomed over 500 local parents and babies. Every session brings together six health specialists under one roof — breastfeeding support, women's health physio, sleep consultancy, emotional health, baby-wearing, weaning and more. No appointment. No waiting list. No cost. Support that would cost hundreds of pounds privately — free to every family that needs it. 💙 We're hoping to raise £2,100 to fund the next three sessions (April–June 2026). Each session costs £700 to run and we have no ongoing government funding — so every pound genuinely makes a difference. If you can spare anything at all, please donate via the link in our bio to our Crowdfunding page. And if you can't donate right now, simply sharing this with someone who might is just as valuable. Thank you so much. 🙏 🔗 Donate via link in bio.
