“We’d had next to no sleep for 14 months! It was terrible. Oscar was a complete joy but he just didn’t sleep. If we were really lucky he’d sleep from eight until twelve but he’d always wake up distressed and his sleep was always fitful waking on average every 2 hours. Everyone said it was behavioural and that it was just what babies did and everyone had a technique to tell us to use but it was more than behaviour or boundaries, we knew it we just didn’t know what to do about it.

My brother suggested Cranial Osteopathy after hearing from a friend what a benefit it was to their children. I read about Elaine’s work online and this spurred me on to book a visit. It was the best decision we could have made.

The whole process has been beneficial. I got the opportunity to tell someone all about our sleeping issues who actually listened, someone who believed me when I said it wasn’t behavioural. At the first meeting Elaine explained the process and treatment plan and we discussed what could be expected over the course of the treatment. The effects were immediate and pronounced. As soon as Elaine placed her hands on Oscar’s head you could see his whole self relax and within minutes he was deeply asleep. Finally a solution!

Now I tell everyone how wonderful Cranial Osteopathy is and that it is never too late to start it with babies and children. I spoke with someone recently who told me her son didn’t sleep through the night until he was five years old! Phew! It really doesn’t have to be that way.”
