Pediatric Problems

Osteopathy has been used for over a century to successfully treat a wide variety of pediatric problems. It is frequently considered the safest and most gentle way to care for most common problems in children of all ages, especially newborns. This includes:

Colic	Plagiocephaly	Torticolis
Nursing Problems	Reflux/spitting up	Constipation
Allergies	Asthma	Recurrent respiratory problems
Ear infections, effusions	Learning disabilities	Behavioral Problems
ADD, ADHD	Autism	Failure to Thrive
Cerebral Palsy	Strabismus	Postural problems
Scoliosis/curv. of the spine	Sprains and strains	Difficult to Treat Problems
Difficult to Diagnose Problems	Orthodontic problems	Vision Problems

...and much, much more.

Children usually have a stronger immune system than adults, hence a much greater potential to improve. Some children may not be as easy to treat as they may not want to lie down on the treatment table. Even so, very good results can usually be obtained. The younger the child, the greater the potential, but, again, patients of all ages may be treated successfully.
