Parents are struggling with their babies, and you can help them.
A tongue tie brings on so many problems with feeding, digestion and sleep. Some families choose to do a revision and some don't. Either way, tongue ties should be addressed.
A hungry baby, an uncomfortable baby, a gassy baby, an overstimulated baby, a refluxy baby, a sore baby, a tired baby all create poor sleep and it wears on the whole family.
Imagine a baby screaming all day long and not being able to help them. Parents know their baby is in pain, and they have no idea how to help them.
A baby that is swallowing too much air has to get it out somehow. They grunt it out, they scream it out, they spit it up and they are generally very upset.
With the advent of the Back To Sleep Campaign came the baby head shape woes. Infant heads can shifted into non-preferred shapes if left in the same position for long periods of time.
Craniosacral therapy works to release fascia within the entire body.
Assessment techniques help to see the baby in a new way. Symptoms will no longer be seen as a problem that the parents just have to live with, but as a sign of what can be treated with CST.
CST treatments take a baby that cries incessantly one day to calm and smiling the next - using gentle touch that relaxes their body and stimulates the nervous system.
CST unlock the questions about symptoms. Symptoms lead to areas in the body that need to be treated. Structure effects function. Improve the structure (ei. muscles and fascia), improve function (ie. latch, pooping)
Some techniques change the head shape of a baby and their latch and digestion will improve. There is only good that can come out of a well performed treatment.
It is truly amazing the kinds of changes babies can see in just a few treatments.
Improved muscle function and head symmetry will help them to latch better, gain faster, and even enjoy the feeding experience. Decreased pain for the parent is another added bonus.
CST helps to loosen up a baby's body to make it easier to move around. Easier movement equals better mobility and a better chance of hitting milestones on time.
Relieving parents of their worries, letting them know that there really IS something that can be done about their baby troubles is priceless. They will thank you for the rest of their lives for giving them a better start with their baby.
A baby that is comfortable in their body, not trying to push out gas bubbles, and who is calm and relaxed (because their parents are calmer now, too) will usually have a better nights sleep. It might even continue on for a while!

You can learn SO much from just the Infant CST Level 1 class, and you will be able to use that knowledge to treat babies.
However, if you're serious about helping babies out with latching issues, this course is what will bring you to the next level of your treatments.
The ICST Level 2 course - has 5 days of In-Person class held in Toronto, Canada. In-person classes are from Monday to Friday 9:30am to 5:30pm.
We will learn how to do cranial releases that will target a chompy, or weak latch and get more clinical practice treating real babies in the Lab.
Please check the schedule of our upcoming courses in the course calendar page.
The short answer is: Yes! Absolutely you can!
But in order to practice CST, you will need to research the rules on what licensure is required to use hands-on therapy in your state, province or country.
As it stands, we are able to run our In-Person classes with a limit of 8 students per class. PPE is warn, and symptom screening is performed before each day begins.
Vaccines are not required to attend any In-Person classes.
Canada requires anyone entering the country to be fully vaccinated (having their second shot over 14 days before date of entry). No testing is currently required to enter the country. You will need to download ArriveCan and fill out the form before boarding your plane if traveling by air.
Yes. If you complete all modules, videos, live classes, and pass the final exam, you will receive a certificate of completion.
The Live Class hours will be included on your certificate, which should help you with submitting this training for Continuing Education hours.
No. But we are currently working on a certification program for folks who live and work in the United States and currently do not have a license to touch. After completing this certification program, you will be certified to use Craniosacral Therapy in certain states.
