Recommendations for a good osteopath for little one

[JoRoFoMo]

Hi all,

My second baby is now 11 months old and still has a lot of reflux/vomiting issues all the time...from the milk in the morning (which usually ends up on the carpet...) up to the dinner he keeps vomiting all the day (although he doesn't seem to be disturbed by this). I spoke to my GP and she said "well he has reflux but as long as he is putting on weight he is fine" but she didn't give any advice to try to stop this. We use a specific milk for reflux but it doesn't help that much.

Therefore I was thinking to take him to an osteopath as something might be stucked somewhere, could anyone recommend an good osteopath in East Dulwich in particular with little ones?

Any feedback (good or not) would be appreciated!

Many thanks!

Jess

It's a trek but really recommend the osteopathic centre for children now in Wandsworth...I think their website is something like www.occ.uk.com 37 bus goes within ten minutes walk from it.

Hiya,

we saw Lizzy Lomax at the Dulwich Therapy rooms - she was amazing, very helpful and supportive.

good luck!

I can second the OCC!

Lovely people who helped my son a lot (throwing up milk, only turning to one side)

Didn't take long to get him better and financially it was easier for me, as they worked on donation basis.

I can also recommend Lizzy. She's a paediatric trained osteopath and she was brilliant with my son when he was little and suffered from reflux. I also got little help from the gp - we tried all the different reflux milk formulas with little success. Lizzy recommended trying goats milk formula which I did straight away and the results were instantaneous. Definitely get an appointment with her.

Just to update o enjoys post...unfortunately they didn't get enough donations so they now have to charge but still a cheaper way for treatment. ?35 for new patient and ?25 follow-up.

Hi all,

Thank you so much for all these good feedbacks, I will get in touch and hopefully it will work!

Are you taking them to a cranial osteopath? If so, please read some of the following before coughing up your hard earned cash:

I've taken my 4 month old to Laura at the Vale Practice and think she's great.

They do lots of excellent discounts if you get a Live Love Local loyalty card too (free to register and get a card if you live in SE London) - see following link: http://www.livelovelocal.net/?ls=goose+green&location=

I've been to prenatal yoga with Michele Misgalla and had various treatments at the clinic and would highly recommend

lizzie lomax at dulwich therapy - have taken my daughter there several times and she is really good and supportive

Simon turgoose at the Vale practice is also excellent with little ones. Have taken both my children to see him post birth and then for sessions as toddlers for other issues. I also see him regularly myself. He's amazing.

YY to Lizzy Lomax.
