Whole-Body Support with Craniosacral Therapy

Release stress, ease discomfort, & reconnect with your body

Gentle Healing for You and Your Baby

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a deeply gentle, hands-on approach that helps release stored tension in the body, especially the kind held after pregnancy, birth, or emotional overwhelm. It works by calming the nervous system, restoring balance, and allowing the body to self-correct in subtle but powerful ways.

For postpartum mothers, CST can ease pelvic discomfort, improve sleep, relieve stress, and support recovery from labor and delivery. For babies, it can promote easier feeding, smoother digestion, and a greater sense of calm, especially after tongue tie revisions, birth trauma, or latch difficulties.

Craniosacral Therapy Can Help With

Pelvic discomfort or misalignment

Addresses structural imbalances in the pelvis and spine, promoting realignment and alleviating discomfort

Latching or feeding difficulties

For infants, CST can alleviate tension in the jaw and mouth, potentially improving latch and feeding efficiency

Stress, anxiety, or overwhelm

Reduces stress and anxiety by calming the nervous system, fostering relaxation and emotional well-being

Tongue and lip ties (pre & post revision)

Supports the release of fascial restrictions associated with tongue and lip ties to enhance mobility and support feeding

Sleep disturbances and fatigue

Promotes deep relaxation, which may improve sleep quality and help new mothers feel more rested

Colic, reflux, or gassiness

birth trauma or difficult delivery

Torticollis or head-turning preferences
