BCST Mom and Babe Initial Session

Service Description

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) is a gentle, yet effective, scientifically-proven whole-body hands-on touch therapy founded in Osteopathy. While not a manipulative therapy, it has evolved to include influences from human development, pre and perinatal psychology, trauma resolution, and recent advances in neuroscience. BCST offers support for pregnant women and mothers and babies after birth. The body goes through huge changes during pregnancy which can be experienced in many ways, and birth, while beautiful and profound, can also be a stressful and traumatic experience for both mother and baby. Treating mother and baby together helps support the unique bond between parent and child, nurturing the emotional and physical connection between them. A BCST session is a safe and relaxed environment and babies are often treated in their mothers lap or while feeding Common reasons for bringing a baby to a session are; difficult births, sleep and feeding issues, colic, constipation, irritability, and difficulty settling. Babies and children tend to respond very well to Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy. It is extremely gentle and is particularly beneficial in rebalancing the newborn’s whole body system within their first year of birth.
