craniosacral therapy
craniosacral therapy can help babies, pregnant women & more…
The cranium and the sacrum need to move easily to bring nutrient-filled cerebrospinal fluid around the spinal cord and the brain. When these bones aren’t moving well, we can see:
Improper latch in infants during breastfeeding
Inability for baby to descend in the birth canal in labor
Low back pain in pregnancy
Poor infant in-utero position or failure for labor to begin/progress
Mouth breathing and snoring
Lack of palate expansion and narrow sinuses/mouths
Ears prone to fluid, hearing loss and ear infections
TMJ dysfunction & headaches
Brain fog, fatigue & learning issues
what does Craniosacral feel like?
Craniosacral Therapy, aka CST, feels like a very gentle massage. Your provider will use the pressure used to check a tomato’s ripeness to massage and lightly melt the restrictions found around your cranial bones, the sacrum and the connective tissue/fascia that connects these regions of the body that could be contributing to your current issue.
How long will my session last?
You decide!
We reserve an hour for your first visit to ensure we have adequate time to determine your goals for care before providing any therapy.
Typically for follow up visits, infants and kids tolerate 20 minute sessions well, and for pregnant women and adults, we reserve 45 minutes.
Our chiropractors also can also perform up to 10 minutes of CST with their adjustments, if time allots.
