Yes!! Went to the Children's Osteopathy Centre at Harley Street where you only need give a charitable donation. They were fab. Attended twice then they advised one we could attend closer to home.

Helped a lot with DS's glue problems of that time and a little with sleep issues.

In a word yes. I didn't tell anyone else that I was taking DS2 and everyone commented on the change, his rages and violence decreased by 50%. It's not a cure but in our case it was a massive help.

Yes. DS1 was not talking much when he was 4. After first session he started talking. Its not a miracle cure but it just seemed to take away the barriers. I've been using 'headman' for about 7 years now. My friend also used it for her chap (mega brainy but lots of anger and anxiety) and I could tell from his eyes afterwards that the anxiety had subsided. Did have a session on DS1 recently (he's now 12) and I have to say it made him worse for a while - sort of more autistic and then he got himself back together again so I am now wondereing whether I will go back again.

We also went to the osteopathic centre for children when ds was about 7 and had concerns about motor development. Saw a huge difference immediately in confidence physically , we often went to the playground opposite afterwards and ds once climbed onto the roof of the parkies hut, and also anxiety reduced.
We stopped going after a while but now ds is 12 and being assessed for add and asd we are thinking of going back.
I can only say it was definately positive experience.
They have moved now. off clerkenwell road
