At the age of learning to walk, falls, even minor ones, can cause various problems:

• disturbed sleep

• O.R.L. affections

• excitement, anger, nervousness.

   

   

• disturbed digestion, constipation.

   

• deviation of the spine.

   

• malpositioned feet or knees etc.

   

• osteopathy is a therapy of choice to correct the after-effects of trauma.

OSTEOPATHY AND SCHOOLING

The child described at school as "not holding in place, dreamy, lacking concentration, dyslexic..." will find a certain help in the osteopathic treatment. This follow-up will allow him to relax, to concentrate better and to be more attentive. Children are particularly receptive and sensitive to the comfort brought by the treatment.  The earlier the treatment, the better the school difficulties will be.

OSTEOPATHY AND SPINE

Static disorders in children (scoliosis, lordosis, kyphosis) are the sign of a poor adaptation of the body. The causes, which can be visceral, traumatic or cranial, will be determined by an osteopathic diagnosis. Adapted correction techniques will improve these vertebral disorders. Collaboration with other health professions is sometimes necessary.

OSTEOPATHY AND ORTHODONTICS

Today, more and more braces are being fitted and many orthodontists work in collaboration with osteopaths for the success of the treatment and for the comfort of the child. Braces use the structures of the skull to leverage the jaw and teeth.

These constraints can cause :

• headaches, backaches

   

• dizziness

   

• visual problems

   

• difficulties in concentrating

   

• changes in mood

   

A regular osteopathic follow-up during dental care is necessary to alleviate these pains, to control and guide the reactions of the skull and the body.

In all cases, learn to observe your child and listen to him. A repeated complaint should alert you.
