Hiya,

Just wondering if anyone knows of a good Cranial Osteopath in Tauranga who works with babies?

DS is a very settled baby so I am not too concerned, but at one point during the labour the registrar tried to deliver him with the ventouse attached to the wrong part of the head. I think it is worth getting him checked out as I figure it must have cause at least some strain on his little body.

If anyone from BOP can recommend someone, please let me know

I'd highly recommend Angela Proctor, shes on Domain Road in Papamoa. Shes a cranial osteopath who specialises in babies and pregnant women. Phone 5443327.

Alternatively, I'd also recommend Nicola Pope at Zest Chiropractic - she's brilliant with babies as well. Zest is behind Bayfair, phone 5749378. I took my DD to Angela straight after she was born, then went to Nicky when she was a little older and developed reflux (about 3 months old).

Hi Kaybee.

We took Kaelen to Green Natural Health Clinic when he was a baby (8 months)and they were great. My aunty recommended Jan but she wasn't available so saw we another woman (can't remember her name). She was really good with Kaelen. Good price too. We're taking Isabella there soon.

Here are the details.

Green Natural Health Clinic (Jan Green)
     
39 Maxwells Rd Otumoetai Tauranga

576 8184

Nicola at Zest is great. Gabrielle had a massive swelling on her head when she was born from being stuck and she thrahed around all the time as a newborn coz she was so uncomfortable. Nicola worked wonders on her.

Thanks for the suggestions ladies

I have decided to try the Green Natural Health Clinic since it's pretty close to where we live, I actually had him booked in at Andrew Wilson & Associates but they charge $50, where as the Green Clinic only charge $30, I figure that having been recommended as well as costing less can only be a good thing!

Deb we are booked in with Barbara, I'm guessing she's the one who saw Kaelen since the answerphone just says Jan and Barbara.

Yep that's the one! Isabella is booked in for Monday. Not sure which one is seeing her though. I'm hoping it'll help with her reflux. I wish i had taken Kaelen earlier than i did. He was born using the ventouse and had reflux too.
