Sleep disturbances in babies
The baby sleeps for only short periods, and may sleep little in the day or night. They may wake at the slightest noise. This may be due to things already mentioned, such as colic or wind, but osteopaths believe that tension in and around the skull can keep the baby's nervous system in a state of arousal. This would mean they can never get calm or comfortable.
By assessing and treating any retained compression from the birth we can help make your child more comfortable and allow them to rest more easily, giving both you and your baby a proper night's sleep.
