Craniosacral Therapy for Infants
Craniosacral therapy (CST) for infants is often used to address conditions that may be related to difficult or traumatic births, such as colic, feeding difficulties, and sleep disturbances. The gentle techniques used in the therapy are also thought to help alleviate the effects of birth trauma on the infant's body and nervous system.
If you have an infant that struggles with the following, CST may be the right option for your little one.
Reduces colic and digestive issues
Craniosacral therapy can help to alleviate colic and digestive issues in infants by promoting relaxation and stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system. This can help to reduce symptoms like fussiness, gas, and constipation.
Improves sleep patterns
By promoting relaxation and reducing tension in the body, craniosacral therapy can help to improve sleep patterns in infants. This can be especially beneficial for infants who have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep.
Enhances immune function
Craniosacral therapy can help to stimulate the immune system, which can help to reduce the incidence of illnesses in infants. This can be especially beneficial for infants who are at higher risk of developing infections due to premature birth, low birth weight, or other factors.
Supports neurological development
Craniosacral therapy can help to improve the function of the central nervous system, which can support healthy neurological development in infants. This can be especially important for infants who have experienced birth trauma, have developmental delays, or have other neurological issues.
Promotes bonding + attachment
The gentle, nurturing touch of craniosacral therapy can help to promote bonding and attachment between infants and their caregivers. This can be especially important for infants who have experienced trauma or have difficulty forming attachments.
