New mums take note, there is a brand new mother and baby clinic in town just for you! Every Monday 9am-1pm, Deborah is offering Craniosacral therapy at BHT. Read what she has to say about the extraordinary benefits this treatment can have for babies and in turn mums:
Birth can be an overwhelming experience for mum, baby and dad too. Even with the most natural birth, the baby experiences dramatic changes in environment as it moves from a safe, dark and fluid-filled space, to one of air, light and noise.
As every mum knows, babies, and subsequently parents, can experience challenges following birth. Sleep, feeding and digestive problems are common, as are changes in the shape of the head from baby passing through the birth canal or due to the use of forceps or ventouse. Colic and reflux are frequently cited conditions and there is often a sense that baby is generally ‘unsettled’.
Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle, safe and often relaxing treatment that can help to address these problems. CST helps baby settle into its own body and facilitates the nervous system to self-regulate following birth. CST can assist with the remoulding process of the head, benefit bonding and help mum relax too.
We are increasingly hearing from mums that midwives, health visitors, doulas and other professionals are recommending CST for babies and children, so come and see the benefits for yourself!
