Susanne Hoppe – Osteopath for newborns and mothers

About Me

Since 2002, I have been working with great passion as a physiotherapist in Leipzig – first in various practices, and since 2016 at the University Hospital Leipzig.

There, together with families, I accompany small patients on their journey: arriving in life and recovering. This togetherness is close to my heart, and I am deeply grateful for the trust of the parents.

Over the years, I have continuously furthered my education in osteopathic treatments. These complement my neurophysiological and family-oriented Bobath approach in a valuable way.

Time and again, families asked me if I could continue to accompany their children after their hospital stay. In 2025, I therefore became self-employed on a part-time basis.

My Focus

My focus is on osteopathic treatment of preterm babies, newborns, and infants – gladly also at your home, where the little ones feel most comfortable and can relax best. Treatment of mothers is also naturally part of my work.

At the center of my work is not only the child, but the whole family. Every treatment begins with attentive listening and a careful case history to build trust and security.

As a mother of two children, I know from my own experience what challenges and uncertainties the first months of life can bring. This helps me accompany families with understanding.

Knowledge Grows Through Exchange

Regular conferences and continuing education as well as interdisciplinary exchange with colleagues are important to me in order to always be able to offer my small patients the best possible treatment.

The close exchange with doctors, nurses, and other therapists – and not least with you as parents – enriches my work and makes it a little better every day.
