About the treatment
Pregnancy a huge and wonderful challenge for both parents and baby. During pregnancy, many women suffer with aches and pains as the foetus grows, all normal when you consider the huge changes happening as this little one grows. Craniosacral therapy may certainly help throughout pregnancy and preparation for birth. Worth considering that this treatment is not just for babies!
Conditions such as rib pain, lower back pain, pubis symphesis pain, sciatica, and general discomfort may all be helped with craniosacral therapy.
Sometimes nature gets a little overwhelmed, and some births may not be so straightforward. Complications during labour and the safety of both mother and baby, may necessitate intervention and help. Such assistance of forceps or ventouse (suction) may not be ideal but happen when necessary. Emergency caesarean section, again when necessary, is all for the good and health of both mother and child.
These traumas can affect both parent and baby. Craniosacral therapy is a wonderful and gentle way to rebalance and alleviate restrictions in the system of the new born infant and the physical and emotional wellbeing of the parents too…!
