Cranial Technique
Cranial is a type of osteopathic technique that is very gentle, and focuses on the head and the spine. The technique is soothing and helps to encourage the release of tension and improve mobility. As techniques are so gentle, they are suitable for patients of all ages including newborns, children and the elderly. It is considered a safe technique and may be suitable for individuals who require more gentle treatment. The effectiveness of cranial osteopathy is variable, some patients report significant improvements in symptoms and overall well-being, while others may experience more subtle benefits. As with any therapeutic approach, results can be subjective and depend on the specific condition and individual response to treatment.
Not all of our osteopaths offer this specific treatment – for adults looking for cranial osteopathy, please book in with Ashley. For babies and children please book in with Laura.
What our patients say
EXCELLENT30 reviewsKirstie JamesHad my first appointment with Laura today. Amazing difference from just the first session! She diagnosed the issue straight away and then got to work. My 'heavy' leg already feels much better. Will definitely be back. Thank you! 😊mitchell wilkinsonI have suffered with various back problems for over 30 years. I had a nasty flare up around 12 months ago. Painful to stand up straight and even walk. It was effecting my job as a chef. A few visits with Campbell Milton and I was sorted. He advised me on various stretches to do, which I have kept up with. I have had no problems since. Thank you 🙏James PThank you Laura for sorting out my pelvic/lower back issue that was causing me persistent discomfort. The fact it was done in the first session was amazing too. My previous experience of osteopathy (many years ago) has been minimal manipulation and just being asked to do certain stretches - walking away feeling a bit cheated of my money. This was very hands on - highly recommended and worth every pennyMike ForsytheFantastic treatment. Colette helped me with a longstanding neck issue and did so with professionalism and expertise. Highly recommend.Amy SinfieldJess is fantastic and knowledgable both myself and my partner have been coming here for a while and she always fixes any issues we have. Super professional 🙂 10/10 would recommendMatthew BarracloughI initially came to see Jonathan with a serious shoulder injury last year and have been back whenever I have had any niggles. Jon has a very relaxed manner and is brilliant at helping me understand any pain i have experienced and sets a clear plan for rehabilitation. I would definitely reccomend him and the surgery.Shaun ReganSaw Laura she was fantastic. Have been a regular at this Surgery for years.
