Craniosacral Therapy for babies
How Can CST Help My Baby?
CST is supportive for:
- Babies who reflux, have 'colic' or digestive discomfort
- Births that were fast, slow, assisted (forceps, ventouse) or C-Section
- Babies who are hard to settle, 'fussy' or hard to soothe
- Feeding challenges (latch, side preference, tongue ties)
- Tongue ties and oral restrictions
- Sleep difficulties
- Tension in the body
Every baby is different, but many parents notice their babies being calmer and more settled after sessions.
Why I Offer Craniosacral Therapy
This learning and work felt like a natural next step in the way I support babies and their parents.
Every experience has an effect on our bodies. Birth is a very physical process - however gentle it is - and can cause tension in your baby's body. If this tension is not addressed, it may contribute to various issues over time. CST is a gentle way to support your baby's early development - prevention is always better than cure.
What Happens in a Session?
Each session is baby-led, respectful and calm. Your baby remains fully clothed and can be held, fed or comforted as needed. This is their session and they should be happy throughout.
Using gentle touch, I asses how their body is moving and where there may be areas of tension.
