Babies Birth Trauma, Toronto
Osteopathy Treatment at “Toronto Naturopath Osteopath Clinic” has been shown to be effective in supporting a variety of conditions, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), chronic low back pain, and neck pain.
Osteopathy for birth trauma has been shown to be a safe and effective care option for infants who experience birth trauma.
Osteopathic techniques help to reduce pain and inflammation, and improve blood flow and breathing. In addition, osteopathy can help to support the infant’s nervous system and promote healing.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), birth trauma babies are those who experience physical or emotional abuse during their birth.
This can include being squeezed too tightly, being restrained in any way, being ignored or denied care, or experiencing chaotic or abusive conditions during labor and delivery.
Trauma during labor and delivery can cause physical and emotional problems that can last a lifetime. There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that birth trauma can lead to lifelong problems such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. In fact, some studies suggest that as many as 30% of all adults may experience some level of trauma due to their birth experience.
Osteopathy is a system of medicine that uses manual manipulation and joint mobilization to support disease. Osteopathy has been found to be an effective care for pain in babies and children, especially when other care have failed.
The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) has recommended that all women who are pregnant, or who may become pregnant in the future, should be screened for anxiety and depression.
Osteopathy can also be used to support birth trauma babies, who may have difficulty breathing, feeding, or gaining weight.
