Pediatric Craniosacral Therapy

Infant and newborn pediatric craniosacral therapy sessions are
offered as home visits with new parents.

Infant craniosacral therapy promotes bonding and attachment for new families, and helps relax baby. Research has shown that baby massage settles the nervous system of most babies, and promotes weight gain. Touch is vital to babies, and can help relieve the symptoms of colic, torticolis and nursing challenges. It can promote better sleep and sensory awareness, too. Infant massage also has many benefits for parents.

SUPPORTING LITTLE ONES

A baby’s cranium is made to shift and mold during birth. Sometimes, the process can be hard on babies. Most difficulties during birth and the prenatal period can resolve when the child comes into relationship with their parents after birth. However, sometimes a little more help is needed.

Gentle holds on the baby help realign bones and release tensions so that the baby’s developing nervous system functions optimally. The intention is to support empowerment, attachment, and protection for baby and family.

Breastfeeding problems in infacts can be alleviated by pediatric craniosacral therapy.
When there is reflux in infants, breastfeeding problems, or issues in child development, consider if craniosacral therapy is right for your infant.

Your visit seems to have done…a lot of good! We’ve had several very successful breastfeeding sessions, which is a lot more than I was able to say just a few days ago!
