Infants, babies, children and You!
Even if you don’t have children, there is a common denominator here. You are all human. However, there is a BIG difference. The infants, babies, and children are more malleable than you.
Why Young Bodies Respond So Powerfully to CranioSacral Therapy
What do I mean? It means infants, babies, children have tissue which is very available to being healed. Their bodies are constantly developing, changing in a way that a small intervention can have a major effect.
CranioSacral Therapy for Infants: Supporting Early Neurological Development
Essentially for infants, there is no intervention just a listening to the craniosacral rhythm until the little one’s system rebalances itself. This listening to the craniosacral rhythm (CSR) of what is termed primary respiration can support neurological functioning as well as bonding and breastfeeding. To understand how this early neurological support connects to lifelong wellbeing, explore CranioSacral therapy for brain health at any age.
I remember seeing a five-day-old infant who had been born prematurely. Instead of coming out the birth canal flexed, the infant was flaccid, lying flat out. He needed support for what is termed navel radiation. Within one or two sessions, he was perfect and active! His young parents took him on a world tour…
Helping Babies Reach Developmental Milestones with CranioSacral Therapy
Every mother awaits to see her baby reach his developmental markers. Some babies are early and some arrive late. As long as your baby reaches their developmental markers all is good. But if they do not then support is needed. I was trained in the neurodevelopmental patterns which are the templates for physical, emotional and mental development as well as the issues which can be solved or supported by CranioSacral Therapy.
A Stroke Recovery Case Study: Rolling Over at 18 Months
I recently worked on a baby who suffered a stroke in utero. At eighteen months, the baby was not at the four-month developmental marker. I enabled the movement the baby wanted to make and gave support through his hands while my colleague used CST to unwind his cranial base and vagus nerve. The result was the baby was able to roll over on his tummy and lift his head with the support of his arms and hands. It was very impressive.
I was even able to have his toes extend…and begin a sequence of push from the lower extremities which would facilitate crawling. And this after the father told me the baby would probably need yet another operation this time on his feet. Impressive result indeed!
CranioSacral Therapy for Children on the Autistic Spectrum
I see children from time to time. Autistic spectrum children may be socially shy and not quite meet the average developmental markers. And yet I have found that CranioSacral Therapy Sessions are critical, along with experiential opportunities. Gentle touch adjustments in brain lesions can speed their process. I have to admit parents may almost not notice the adjustment but I who see the child less frequently, do notice the shifts especially in physical adeptness.
I remember a child coming in and enjoying the Tibetan bells I have but was barely able to clang them together. The next time he came in, no problem, in fact he even put them back in place at the end of the session.
When a Child May Not Need Therapy: Honest Observations
I will say I have seen concerned parents bring in a child…who really just needed glasses to see the chalk board. Or a child declared hyperactive simply because they needed to move. Your body and your child were meant to move, not sit quietly or at a computer all day.
And then the child who wants to do what he wants to do. His life and how to offer him or her the opportunities to excel. This is not necessarily a CranioSacral Therapy issue.
Supporting Children with Anxiety, ADHD, and Mental Imbalances
Mental imbalances in children come in many forms. Anxiety disorder, ADHD, attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and the list goes on. Yes, CST can help as part of a team effort of skilled professionals.
I did cure a five year old of her fear of cats with CST and my magic crystal wand but it does only work on five year old’s. True story!
And I have worked with several persons over as much as thirty years who have chosen not to take medical drugs. The combination of CranioSacral Therapy and psychological therapies have allowed them to manage their condition and live drug free. Life long drugs have health consequences. And CranioSacral Therapy can offer a pathway to minimize negative outcomes.
