Craniosacral Therapy is a very gentle treatment for your baby which can help with many common issues.
REASONS WHY YOUR BABY MIGHT NEED TREAMENT:
- You are having feeding issues. Whether this be bottle or breast, often feeding can be difficult. There can often be oral tension that can prevent your baby from latching well, this is something that can be helped with treatment.
- Your baby has symptoms of reflux and/or colic. I work out why these symptoms are occurring to find the root cause.
- Your baby has a tongue tie or has had a release. Treatment can really help as part of before and after care.
- Your baby only wants to turn their head to one side, or you might notice that they favour one breast. They may appear to be very tense or have a very strong neck. There is often restriction in the body from how they were positioned in the womb. Again, all of this can usually be helped with a few gentle treatments.
- Your baby is hard to settle. Babies cry, of course they do. But if you feel there's lots of unexplained crying then craniosacral can help to relax and reset your baby's body.
- Your baby struggles with wind. A baby's digestive system is immature and so processing milk can be hard. I work a lot to release the tummy and ribs, this can really help to assist digestion.
- Your baby's head shape looks a bit unusual. Babies heads are designed to move in the birth canal, often heads can look misshapen for a few weeks. CST can help with the process of the head realigning which has positive effects throughout the body.
- You had a tricky birth. This could be that it was super quick (or slow) or that things didn't quite go according to plan. You might have had an assisted delivery, vontouse, forceps or a c section. All of these can have an impact on how your baby is feeling in the first few weeks.
