Infant Craniosacral Therapy
Help your baby feel more calm and comfortable.
May be covered under naturopathic services
Being in utero and being born can be hard on a baby’s body. They get pretty squished! Craniosacral therapy is a gentle form of massage that uses about 5 grams of pressure to help babies release tension they may be holding in their bodies, so they can feel more relaxed.
How can CST help my baby?
Craniosacral therapy uses gentle, sustained, light touch to ease the tension patterns a baby can carry after birth. Families most often bring their babies to us for:
- Difficulty latching, or a strong preference for feeding on one side
- Tongue and lip tie — before and after a release
- A head-turn preference or tightness through the neck (torticollis)
- Head-shape asymmetry and flat spots (plagiocephaly)
- Fussiness, colic and trouble settling
- Reflux, gas and digestive discomfort
- Unsettled, very light sleep
- Recovery after a long, very fast, assisted (forceps or vacuum) or caesarean birth
What to expect
- A detailed history of you, your baby, your pregnancy and birth
- A comprehensive physical exam of your baby
- A plan including mobility exercises you can do with your baby
- Visits are about 90 minutes and are done at your home
Reach out and we'll talk through whether a session is a good fit for your family and answer any questions.
