Pediatric Craniosacral Therapy
Newborn through Age Two This four-day class brings the practice of craniosacral work and manual therapies into the hands of practitioners who wish to work with infants and children. The foundation of the work lies in honoring the consciousness of the infant. The course involves infant centered therapy. It incorporates a caring, common sense approach utilizing craniosacral techniques, prenatal and perinatal psychology, and principles of infant development. The class will include simple and effective therapeutic techniques to assist in normalizing the newborn’s structure, balancing their nervous system, and resolving possible issues of their birth experience. Therapies utilized will include biodynamic and biomechanical craniosacral therapies, soft tissue skills, and the pioneering developmental and technical works of Hugh Milne, and Dr. Benjamin Shields. The class is designed to be approximately one-half lecture/theory, and one-half practical/hands-on table work, with appropriate demonstrations on babies by the class teacher.
