Mothers to be
Expecting women need sufficiently more peace and quiet to nourish the developing fetus. A craniosacral treatment being gentle and non-invasive helps you stay tranqil in a time beset with oscillating moods. As your therapist I can provide a safe relational field in which to feel supported at all times.
Gestational Companion
Whilst you gain from any vital medicinal intervention the fetus too bears the implications of that. This healing touch therapy provides the means to eliminate the side effects such that the womb continues to be a safe and nurturing place.
Around Labor
If given a choice you would most probably choose normal delivery over a C-section because you know the long-term benefits of that. And continuing with your therapy right through labor until the last moment is valuable as well.
Cranioscral healing helps to maintain the wellbeing of both mum and baby and creates favorable circumstances for a normal birth. However, when a difficult labor preempts a C-section, this light touch therapy ensures that the effects of it are released quickly enough.
Beyond Birth
Postnatal depression is not an uncommon occurrence in new moms. Even the most beautiful baby can cause mom to retreat temporarily into an emotional abyss. Craniosacral therapy for depression in new mums is highly valuable, helping her regain a larger perspective on motherhood.
Baby & Bonding
Breastfeeding can be stressful causing much grief to mum and baby. Whilst helping the mum to tranquillize, these sessions can help her body release hormones in favor of breastfeeding. Leaving mum energized for healthy bonding and attachment with baby.
Partner & Bonding
It can be easy for mum to get carried away in baby euphoria, leaving the partner feeling anxious and abandoned. Sessions for both partners are advantageous to keep harmonious communication flowing. When mum remains joyful less chances of alienating her partner. There’s more time available for bonding together with baby.
Restoring Balance
Most physical changes in mum’s body are reversible with diet and exercise. As an allied tool, craniosacral treatment works holistically to align all the systems, restore biotensegrity and help mum recover her innate vitality, confidence, and zest.
Settling Baby
Cranio sessions for mum have a direct effect on baby. Mum’s calm nerves help baby to settle even when faced with colic, feeding issues and other birth induced difficulties. Holding mum and baby in a relational field together is positive reinforcement for both. Even better, are 20 minute hands-on sessions for only baby. Babies are pure consciousness showing dramatic improvement and oh so quickly.
Safety Zone
Treating mom and baby together, pre and post-natal, creates profoundly-positive belief systems in baby. Baby perceives the world as safe and welcoming, an important prelude to future beliefs about life in general. With low physical and mental discomfort baby settles into a desired attachment style with mum, a pre-cursor for all future relations in the adult life of the baby.
Settling In
Craniosacral healing tones down baby’s activated nervous system helping it adjust to the noisy outside world. Mishappen contours of a baby’s head are treated safely allowing the new bioenergectic forces to settle in. Other irregularities that do not require immediate medical intervention are easily eased via BCST.
Cranio For Special Children
These sessions aren’t routine. With utmost patience and creativity, I tailor-make a session to suit the needs of a special child. These children respond quickly within a few sessions to show remarkable change, however small.
Language of Touch
In the absence of formal language, gentle non-invasive touch truly becomes the cornerstone via which a sense of stillness and compassion is conveyed by the therapist to the child.
Super Sensitive
Kids with special needs take much longer to show physical improvement. Although a craniosacral benefit is emotional change, which is enormous and spontaneous.
