Babies can benefit greatly from Craniosacral Therapy to release and re-align the compressions imposed on them during the birth process, calming and rebalancing their nervous system, as well as their emotional state.
Mothers and babies who have experienced induction, C-section, breech, forceps, vacuum extraction or the use of anaesthetics during the birth can both be supported and helped by the Craniosacral approach.
​
Even a natural birth can be traumatic for a baby, leaving a lasting imprint which can later develop into other symptoms.
Babies
Conditions CST can help with include:
Asthma, colic, constipation, eczema, excessive crying, feeding difficulties, plagiocephaly, reflux and torticollis.
Children
As children grow and explore their world, they can experience knocks, falls, infections and illnesses. There may also be some residual birth trauma left in their system, manifesting for example, as ADHD, dyspraxia, eczema or other symptoms . The gentle touch of Craniosacral Therapy (CST) can be ideal for children, supporting them in finding their way back to optimum health and vitality, both physically and emotionally, so they're able to thrive.
Symptoms with which Craniosacral Therapy may help:
These include ADHD, allergies, anxiety, asthma, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, hyperactivity and learning difficulties.
Teenagers
Teenagers deal with physical, mental and emotional demands while, at the same time, their hormones facilitate the transition from childhood into adulthood. They can also incur sports injuries, feel peer pressure and experience stress due to academic demands. Symptoms such as dyspraxia, headaches, migraine, anxiety, hyperactivity and behavioural issues, including depression and irritability, can all be helped by the gentle, non-invasive touch of Craniosacral Therapy.
