12th Annual Presentation to the Osteopathic Centre for Children, London.
The Osteopathic Centre for Children is now amalgamated with the new Foundation for Paediatric Osteopathy.
“The Effect of Jaw Problems on the Rest of the Body” was the title of my presentation. This time by Zoom!
12 participants tuned in from various regions of the country. The aim of the lecture was to inroduce the concept of an integrated approach to treatment involving dentists/orthodontists, ENT specialists and Myofunctional therapists. Ostepaths and Chiropractors also have their part to play , especially in early diagnosis and treating cranial strains.
Their is now a heightened awareness of the need to establish a good airway and nasal breathing in the early years in order to achieve optimal oxygenation for health and wellbeing.
