Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle form of body work used to release tension within the body.

Muscle and tissue tensions can start from the position of a baby within the womb, during the birthing process or after birth. This tension can cause a baby to experience a shallow latch, head preferring to turn to one side, breast preference while feeding, back arching, trouble burping and/or passing gas, among others.

Benefits of CST may include less fussiness at the breast, an easier time passing gas, a better outcome after a tongue-tie release and better feedings (breast, bottle or solids). Since the techniques are so incredibly gentle, they are safe for infants to receive.
