Helping you and your baby to feel content

Treatment of babies is a specialised area of osteopathy which involves additional training. I have undertaken a year’s Postgraduate Certificate with the prestigious University College of Osteopathy and am a Specialist Paediatric Osteopath.

I will assess your baby for any stresses or strains which may be causing them discomfort.

I use techniques such as cranial osteopathy and myofascial release which is gentle, safe and non-manipulative. Your child is precious; you need to know they’re in the hands of an experienced, qualified professional.

After further postgraduate training I am also a FEDANT Registered Infant Feeding Coach which helps to inform my paediatric treatments and can help with a shallow latching, nipple pain, tension from birth and post tongue-tie release. I also work closely with local IBCLCs (lactation consultants), tongue tie practitioners, private midwives, sling consultants and doulas who help to support new mothers and their babies.

I am particularly passionate about paediatric osteopathy and am currently expanding my knowledge in this field by taking Sarah Oakley’s Tongue Tie and Infant Feeding Online Course.

Testimonials

We came to see Karly with our 8-week-old baby after realising he only slept one way and seemed to have lots of tension and difficulty turning his neck. She gave us a treatment plan with exercises to continue at home as well as seeing her weekly to help him get his neck moving more freely. Karly is kind and caring and just amazing with him. He is full of smiles after his treatments and we feel so relieved to have found someone to help us get him comfortable. Thank you so much!

Karly saw my newborn daughter who was not sleeping and had very bad reflux issues (which was most likely adding to her poor sleep). Karly was brilliant with my daughter and talked me carefully through the exercises she was doing with her. My daughter loved every moment, beaming throughout the entire session, and most importantly we saw a big improvement in her sleep and digestion following her sessions with Karly.

I also saw Karly for my Mummy MOT. It was very useful with Karly helping me understand where my body was at post birth and what to do to start getting back to my old physical self.

When I first saw Karly, I was not very well and eventually was diagnosed with severe postnatal depression and anxiety. Karly very gently and kindly encouraged me to talk about how I was feeling and, although it wasn't the main purpose of our sessions with her, our conversations helped me a great deal in understanding how I was feeling and moving forward to seek help.

I am taking my daughter back for a further session - would 100% recommend Karly's services!

I visited Karly after being concerned with tightness in my baby’s body following a c-section due to him being breech. She carried out such a thorough assessment and was so gentle and caring while delivering the treatment. Her knowledge was fantastic, she explained everything so well and gave us great direction so we could continue the treatment at home. Karly made me feel reassured and at ease.

‘I took my baby to see Karly when he was a few months old and had some neck problems. After just one session he had much better movement and is now thriving. We only needed a couple of sessions all in all so it was definitely money well spent. The treatment was very effective but also very comfortable and not stressful for him at all! I really recommend Karly 100%

Karly is absolutely fantastic. I booked in for a Mummy MOT following a second C-Section and found the whole experience not only incredibly insightful for my physical health but empowering for me to want to continue my recovery. Karly is knowledgeable and was supportive throughout and provided me with a detailed overview of what we had discussed to help me to put some of her helpful tips into practice. Following my visit with Karly last month I have continued with Karly's recommendations and have felt the difference. Highly recommend Karly for this well needed service in support of postnatal health.
