The Foundation is in Clerkenwell just round the back of Exmouth market. It's a lovely light and airy building where children and their mothers (up to a year after giving birth) can be seen by fully trained osteopaths training so specialise in treating children. Rather than the manipulations and 'clicking' adults get at a visit to the osteopath, newborns and young children are just held in gentle and soothing way.
Treatments last for up to half an hour and take place in a communal treatment room. Rose (2yrs) sat on a bed playing with puzzles while our osteopath placed her hand on her head and chest. I couldn't really see that much was happening, but I have had this treatment myself and it is amazing. You feel a kind of fizzing in your solar plexus while the treatment is going on and fully relaxed for days afterwards.
You pay for your treatment by donation, they suggest £35 but have never quibbled when I pay £10.
