Colic, constipation, and reflux are common gastrointestinal issues for tiny tummies, causing distress for both babies and parents. They can lead to problems feeding and sleeping, increased crying and fussiness, and affect bonding and overall emotional health. With a comprehensive understanding of these conditions, osteopathy is perfectly placed to help alleviate discomfort and promote better function in infants.Learn to use your palpation to assess muscle tone, the vertebral column, cranial structures and restriction in the diaphragm, thoracic spine, and abdomen. Then apply safe, gentle infant-specific osteopathic techniques to address cranial restrictions, optimize cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and enhance vagal tone and digestive function, as well as release tension in the diaphragm, abdominal organs, and pelvic floor, and improve respiratory function.
Along with strategies to improve baby’s posture, feeding patterns, pelvic floor muscle tone and co-ordination, nerve function, cranial/cervical mobility, parasympathetic tone, and mobility and function of the intestines there is so much you can do!
This in-depth course from highly respected Italian Paediatric Osteopath Luisa Miraglia combines assessment, treatment planning, case-studies and gentle-but-effective osteopathic assessment and treatment techniques. Tiny Tummies will deliver you the knowledge and skills to support your patients and improve the health and well-being in both the short and longer term.
Techniques will be demonstrated and practiced via a combination of detailed pre-recorded videos, on fellow attendees and a planned infant clinic to end the day. The clinic is dependent on suitable parents volunteering. We will do our best facilitate this aspect of the course but for obvious reasons it cannot be guaranteed.
📖 LEARNING OBJECTIVES 📖
* Understand infant colic, constipation and reflux, their causes, and how they affect little ones (and their parents).
* Learn a wide variety of assessment tools for babies including;
- Observation of behaviour, posture, feeding patterns and symptoms,
- Palpation to assess muscle tone, spinal mobility, cranial structures and restriction in the diaphragm, thoracic spine and abdomen,
- Tension and mobility of the gastrointestinal system,
- Evaluation of pelvic floor muscle tone and co-ordination,
- Evaluation of cranial/cervical mobility to ensure optimal nerve function,
- and more…
* Understand real-world applications via cased-based learning.
* Discover gentle cranial osteopathic techniques to address cranial restrictions, optimize cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and enhance vagal tone and digestive function.
* Learn infant-specific soft tissue techniques to release tension in the diaphragm, abdominal organs, and pelvic floor, and improve respiratory function.
* Restore proper nerve function and alleviate tension via mobilization of the spinal segments.
* Learn visceral manipulation techniques to improve mobility and function of the intestines.
* Enhance baby’s parasympathetic tone and facilitate relaxation of the pelvic floor.
