Cranial osteopath for glue ear

[jsp56]

Hi,

I wondered if anyone might know of a cranial osteopath in Cambridge who can help resolve glue ear in a child aged 6?

I know there several cranial osteopaths around here but I'd be really glad to have recommendation of one who is known to have actually fixed a case of glue ear.

Thanks!

Curious as to how they would do this? I know there's a special head-twist certain ENT consultants can do which helps with a certain kind of dizziness, is this along the same lines? Otherwise antibiotics or grommets are the usual treatment for glue ear.

We've been finding that just massaging the ear where it meets the cheek helps to move the eustacian tube a bit and gradually resolves glue ear over a period of a few weeks. My son's trouble in the left ear went away entirely with this treatment. I just wondered if a cranial osteopath would know how to move the cheek and ear in a more specific way to resolve the right ear problem a bit faster to save us doing weeks and weeks of ear massage.

Apparently the eustacian tube is quite flat in young children and as they grow up it becomes more vertical and drains better. I suppose the massage is just moving it into a more vertical position temporarily or something.

Can thoroughly recommend Alex Taylor & his team at the Coach House Clinic in Trumpington

Thanks!

We had a hearing test today and it turns out that his glue is completely gone. Fantastic! Phew!

Thanks for the recommendations anyway.
