Osteopathy in Berlin for children and babies

Osteopathic Newborn Check-up
Birth is one of the first major physical challenges in life. During long labours, caesarean sections or assisted deliveries using ventouse or forceps, muscular tensions and blockages can arise that may affect your baby's development.
The osteopathic check-up is a gentle, preventive examination shortly after birth. We identify potential tensions and blockages early and treat them carefully before they develop into later complaints.

Frequently asked questions about pediatric osteopathy
What is pediatric Osteopathy?
Paediatric osteopathy is a gentle, holistic treatment method that is tailored to the motor, emotional and neurological development of children. It helps to release tensions and blockages to support your child's natural development and prevent symptoms.
How does a paediatric osteopathy treatment work?
Every treatment begins with a detailed conversation with the parents. The child is then examined and treated using sensitive, gentle techniques. The child may remain in the parents' arms or play on a blanket throughout. After the treatment, parents receive individual recommendations and exercises to do at home.
How much does a paediatric osteopathy session cost?
A paediatric osteopathy session costs 90 euros for 40 minutes. Most statutory health insurers contribute to the costs. Privately insured patients are billed according to the German fee schedule for alternative practitioners (GebüH).
Do I need a referral for pediatric osteopathy?
No, a referral is not required. You can book an appointment directly. However, many health insurers require a private prescription for reimbursement – this can be issued by any doctor.
From what age can my child receive paediatric osteopathy?
Paediatric osteopathy is possible from the very first day of life. We treat newborns, babies, toddlers and children up to adolescence. An early osteopathic examination in the first months of life can be particularly beneficial.
Can paediatric osteopathy help with colic and three-month colic?
Yes, paediatric osteopathy can help with colic. Common causes include tension in the abdomen or an overstimulated autonomic nervous system. Through gentle osteopathic techniques, the nervous system is regulated and gut motility improved, which can noticeably relieve abdominal pain and restlessness.
Can paediatric osteopathy help with sleep problems in babies?
Yes, osteopathy can help with sleep problems. Poor sleep in babies often has physical causes such as muscular tension, blockages in the skull or an overstimulated nervous system. Osteopathy helps calm the nervous system and guide the child into deeper relaxation patterns. Many parents report noticeably calmer nights after just one or two sessions.
Is pediatric osteopathy treatment painful?
No, the treatment is generally completely pain-free. Our osteopaths work exclusively with gentle, sensitive techniques specifically adapted to the child's nervous system. Many babies fall asleep during the treatment or visibly relax. If your child becomes unsettled, we adapt the pace at any time.
