South Bank Cranio
Pregnancy,
mums & babies
As craniosacral therapy is so gentle, it’s perfect to support babies and new mums. Birth is one of the most profound events in life and the time when mum and baby need all the support they can get.
Pregnancy is a period of rapid change when the body is carrying a new human and preparing for birth. As the woman’s body supports, holds and nurtures the developing being, so she also needs to be held and nurtured.
MUms and babies have come to me with pre-natal conditions such as:
-
Relieving minor ailments (such as back pain)
-
Settling nervous and hormonal systems
-
Supporting the body’s current and future physical changes
-
Preparing for birth
Post-natal conditions include:
-
Post-natal anxiety and depression
-
Pelvic floor recovery
-
Musculoskeletal changes after birth
Birth itself can be traumatic, for mum as well as baby. Holding the space for them and helping release this trauma at an early stage will provide a good foundation for a healthy and happy life.
Common reasons for bringing a baby for cranio treatment are:
-
Difficult births with prolonged labour
-
Significant bruising around their head after birth
-
Sleep and feeding issues
-
Colic/reflux
-
Constipation
-
Has a head preference/torticollis, or breastfeeding is painful on one side
-
Tongue-tie
-
Irritability, difficulty settling or crying a lot
-
Bonding with parents and siblings
