Parents are struggling with their babies, and you can help them.
Craniosacral can treat some of the most severe symptoms.
Nursing Issues
Pre/Post Tongue Tie Revision
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.
Sleep issues
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.
Colic
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.
Gas/Reflux
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.
Head Shape
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.
How does it work?
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.
Benefits of CST
It is truly amazing the kinds of changes babies can see in just a few treatments.
Better Feeding
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.
Improve Mobility
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.
Relieved families
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.
Better sleep
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!
A message from the Founder
Meaghan Beames, RMT, CST
Founder, Course Creator, Instructor, Registered Massage Therapist
If you're here, I know you have a desire to help people. You are an empathetic soul wanting to make the world a better place. You also love babies.
I see you, I understand you, I am you.
I have always been drawn to helping people, and craniosacral has made it possible for me to improve the lives of over 700 families.
I am on a mission to ensure every family in North America and around the world has access to qualified craniosacral therapists to help their babies cope with colic, latching issues, and all the growing pains that can make life with a newborn harder than it needs to be.
Many health care professionals working with infants struggle to treat babies' most severe symptoms. So I developed a clear and simple way to find and treat the root cause using craniosacral therapy so these health professionals can provide quick relief with lifelong benefits for these babies.

I don't have a healthcare or baby background - can I still take this course?

This course is designed for graduates to start helping families right away. We want to make sure that as many families as possible can receive the benefits that craniosacral provides.

Is the In-Person training mandatory?
No!
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.
When is the next course starting?
Please check the schedule of our upcoming courses in the course calendar page.
I'm not Canadian, can I still take this course?
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.
What is your Covid-19 protocol?
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.
Do I receive a certificate?
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.
Will I be certified after this training?
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.
Check back in the next 6 months to see the progress on this!
Do I need insurance once I'm qualified?
Depending on your location, you may need to have specific qualifications to treat using craniosacral therapy. Please check your state or province requirements.
If you are eligible to use craniosacral, it is best to get liability insurance before you start treating anyone.
Do you have a payment plan?
All funds are in USD.
We want to make this class as accessible as possible, so we have created payment plans for every course. Click on each course to see their respective payment options.
