What to expect during a baby Osteopathy session

Your baby’s first osteopathy appointment at our Glenfield clinic is calm, unhurried, and focused entirely on their comfort and wellbeing.

During your session, your osteopath will:

  1. Take a detailed case history, including birth experience, feeding, sleep, and overall development.
  2. Gently assess your baby’s movement, symmetry, and areas of tension.
  3. Use light-touch techniques — including cranial osteopathy — to ease restrictions and support natural balance.
  4. Provide advice on feeding posture, settling, and exercises to support your baby’s development at home.

Most babies find osteopathy relaxing — many drift off to sleep during treatment.
