This subdivision of Osteopathy is also known as Cranio-sacral Osteopathy and/or Cranio-sacral Therapy.

Mr. Trishul Vadi (B.Ost., O.A., M.I.C.O.) has post graduate qualifications in Cranial Osteopathy. In his experience it is particularly useful for conditions such as:

- Joint & Circulatory disorders

If you suffer from any of these conditions, or would like more information about Cranial Osteopathy and whether you would benefit from treatment please call 020-8777-4343.
