Infant CranioSacral Therapy
A Safe, Gentle Bodywork Modality
Who Can Benefit from ICST?
Anyone who is born!
Position in utero, as well as birth itself, can cause fascial strain patterns in infants. When the fascia tightens, it can create issues with the ability to position optimally for latching and feeding, tighten the digestive tract, and cause issues such as reflux.
Tight fascia can even cause nerve compression, which is often the root cause of feeding challenges.
It's not just about 'tension'. It's about nerve function!
What Can You Expect at Your ICST Session?
Generally, you will see your baby become more relaxed, and 'unwind' - many parents notice that their baby is more calm and their body is more relaxed than they've seen them.
Oftentimes, babies feed better while being treated - yes, they can be treated during feeding times, while a parent is holding them, or in my arms.
We do whatever works best for you and your baby!
