Helping Your Child Thrive: Pediatric Wellness Services at Fèath and Elemi
Seeing your child struggle with discomfort or health issues can be a stressful experience for any parent. At Fèath and Elemi we offer a variety of pediatric services designed to support your child's health and well-being.
Fèath and Elemi's approach is centered on gentle and effective techniques that can address a wide range of concerns in children. Here's a look at some of the specific services we provide:
Pediatric Craniosacral Therapy: This gentle form of bodywork focuses on the bones of the head, spine, and sacrum. It's believed that these bones can become misaligned, which can lead to various health problems in children. Pediatric craniosacral therapists use light touch to manipulate these bones and improve the flow of cerebrospinal fluid throughout the body. This can be beneficial for conditions like colic, reflux, constipation, sleep problems, ear infections, and growing pains.
Pediatric Bowen Therapy: Bowen therapy is a technique that involves small, precise moves over specific muscle and connective tissue areas. In its pediatric form, it is a gentle and effective way to address a variety of concerns. It can help with discomfort from growing pains, constipation, and torticollis (stiff neck) in infants.
Pediatric Touch for Health: Touch for Health is a system that combines acupressure, kinesiology, and other techniques to assess and improve a child's health. Pediatric Touch for Health practitioners use gentle touch to identify imbalances in the body's energy system and promote overall well-being. This can be helpful for addressing emotional stress, behavioral issues, and sleep problems in children.
Pediatric Massage Therapy: Massage therapy can be a wonderful way to promote relaxation and well-being in children. Pediatric massage therapists use gentle techniques specifically tailored to a child's needs. This can help with anxiety, growing pains, and sleep problems.
Pediatric Lymphatic Therapy: Lymphatic therapy is a gentle massage technique that helps stimulate the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing waste and toxins from the body. For children, lymphatic therapy can be beneficial in addressing issues such as frequent illnesses, allergies, and digestive problems. It can also help to boost the immune system and promote overall well-being.
