Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy

Working with babies and children

Children respond well to Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, because its approaches are gentle, non-invasive, and non-manipulative.

Often children are very intuned with themselves and have a great awareness about things around them. In order to make sessions as effective as possible, it is very important for me to build a trustworthy relationship with each child to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere.

The session will involve a lot of "playtime", as such, parent participation will be required more with Toddlers. I suggest bringing along a child's favorite toy or other personally meaningful items such as books, blankets or stuffy animals, etc. *Minimize electronic toys or devices, please.

For infants, usually mom can hold her baby in her arms and I will work on both baby and mom together at the same time. Especially in the early stage of our life, the attachment between baby and mom is so strong, that I understand the tremendous benefits of working with both baby and mom together.

Most of the time, children will fall into deep relaxation or sleep during treatment, but, sometimes, in the nature of the healing process, it may stir things up in their system and make children/babies uncomfortable for a little while. This is quite natural when it happens. It is because their system is healthy enough to do so and it is quite a normal response in B.C.S.T. or any other healing modalities.
