Based in Thetford Norfolk, Castle Osteopaths provides qualified therapist in Osteopathy, Acupuncture, Sports massage, Cranial Osteopathy, Nutritional therapy and Podiatry I’m a registered Physiotherapist and Acupuncturist with over 20 years’ experience of treating a wide range of conditions. I like to think that I an efficient but relaxed manner that people are comfortable with. But most importantly, and what matters the most to me, is that I have a really good success rate. What I like to do is use a combination of therapies to give the best possible outcome for individual clients. For example, if your back is painful I may use massage and manipulation to realign the muscles and bones and acupuncture to relieve the pain quickly. You don’t need to be referred to Castle Osteopaths by your Doctor. Osteopaths are trained to examine muscles, joints, the cardiovascular system, respiratory system etc and have to study for four years before we qualify. Conditions that I can help you with include:

With temperatures due to soaring we wanted to share this information provided by Tommy's website:.

"Babies are not as good at regulating their body temperature, so it's important to keep them cool as possible. Hopefully these tips will help:

⭐️Try to keep the room as cool as possible
Ideally the room where your baby sleeps should be kept at about 16-20 degrees but in the hot weather this can be really difficult.
💙Create a flow of air by having as many windows open as possible and have the curtains or blinds partly closed during the day to protect from direct sunlight.
💙If you have a fan, pop a bottle of frozen water or bowl of ice in front of it so it cools the air as it moves.
💙If you are worried about the room temperature then it may be worth having a room thermometer to keep an eye out.

⭐️ Think about bedding
💚Use cotton sheets and blankets.
💚Avoid using waterproof sheets, as these can be sweaty for the baby and make them overheat.
💚Avoid swaddling your baby so they can kick off the blanket more easily if they get hot.

⭐️ Dressing your baby
💙Do not be afraid to leave your baby to sleep in only a nappy if it is hot in the room, especially above 24 degrees.
💙If your baby doesn't like this, then just pop a thin cotton blanket or muslin as a single layer over them.

⭐️ Feeding your baby
💚If you breastfeed your baby you may find they want to feed a little more often. They shouldn’t need any water if they're under 6 months old as breast milk is as hydrating as water. (Just make sure you keep yourself hydrated!)
💚If your baby is having formula then they may need a little cooled boiled water but try to keep this to a minimum and not just before a feed.

⭐️ Being out and about during the day:

It’s really important to avoid placing a blanket or cover over the buggy or pram as this stops air circulating and can make it even hotter for the baby."
