Infant CST Level 2
In-Person Lab. Learn cranial releases to improve latch, digestion, head shape and more.
Craniosacral is the most effective way for you to help families struggling with their babies so they can finally relax and enjoy their newborn.
You really can make a living cuddling babies and changing lives.
** Must be enrolled in or have taken Infant CST Level 1 to be eligible for this class.
Craniosacral could be the answer
to the tongue tie dilema.
Tongue ties are usually accompanied by cranial nerve dysfunction, causing tension within the tongue.
This can make it really hard to know
whether to release the tie and work on function,
or
If it's ONLY nerve dysfunction, and the tongue doesn't need to be released at all.
Parents need help with the decision.
And this course helps you have the answer.
There is a way to help make the decision.
Tongue ties aren't always tethered oral tissues. Nerve dysfunction plays a role, and you can improve tongue function with CST.
Discover which cranial nerves are affected in order to restore function, loosen a tense tongue and jaw, and improve latch.
Assess the mouth and tongue mobility. Then spread the bones of the hard palate to see how quickly the suck improves. It's magic.
Have a list of treatment techniques you can use for reflux, poor latch, coughing or choking on letdown and more.
Learn Infant Cranial releases in just 5 days!
In this immersive week, you'll have the tools you need to treat latch issues and reflux caused by cranial misalignment.
You might be wondering "Why can't I do this online?"
The answer is that these techniques are SO GENTLE and specific that learning them online would be irresponsible.
You are going to be touching baby's heads in order to make their latch better, and that requires excellent training.
That training should always be done in person.
It's incredibly important to watch live demonstrations of treatments so you can get to know what they look like and how to do them.
But then you'll also be able to treat real babies in class and ask questions in-the-moment.
You deserve to spend a week immersed in this training.
After, you'll have the knowledge, and the training to be able to increase your prices and make back your tuition and travel costs with just 6 clients.
How did I get that number?
Most babies will see you 5 times.
5 treatments at $170 = $850
6 clients at $850 = $5100
You deserve to make money doing what you love to do.
Infant CST Level 2 will bring your treatments to the next level
You may be afraid to treat babies because you "don't know enough yet". Let's spend 5 days together to increase your confidence and skill so you can treat more bebes.
If you're questioning your ability to make change, these new techniques will give you quick wins that even the parents will notice in the session.
No longer refer out to a specialist who is "better than you". These skills will make you better than "them". They'll start referring babies to you!

You're the perfect fit for Infant CST Level 2 if you are a:
Lactation Consultant
Manual Therapist
You know how to work with the body, and you're seeing improvements with the babies that you've treated, but you reeeally want to know how to change that head shape, or improve that latch with cranial releases.
Doula or Support Specialist
It's so nice to see these parents feeling relaxed, and seeing their babies be held with such a loving and knowing touch. But why are these babies still gassy? Still spitting up all the time? Still turning their head to one side?
Midwife
Forceps, vacuum, OP, breech, HG, preeclampsia, precipitous births, long arduous births, significant decels. You've seen it all and that's hard. Craniosacral is a way of releasing this trauma from the infant cranium.
Course Curriculum
Learn releases for the infant skull that will dramatically improve latch, reflux, plagiocephaly and so much more.
Tongue Ties
Understand how cranial nerve dysfunction could cause a baby to present like they have a tongue tie, when they do not. Improve function to decrease tension of the tongue.
Neonatal Issues
Reflux, Back to Sleep, torticollis, head molding and more play a significant role in the functioning of the body.
Infant Cranial Anatomy & Cranial Releases
Release cranial bones and bones inside the mouth to improve nerve function of the face, and tongue to improve feeding and decrease swallowing air.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I be certified after this training?
No, you will not be certified. You will receive a certificate of completion for the amount of hours you've completed in class, but this does not make you certified in craniosacral.
This certificate will be enough for Canadians to be able to practice craniosacral, but if you are living and working in America then you will not be able to charge for craniosacral services if you do not have a license to touch. If you do have a license to touch, then you will be able to treat using craniosacral and charge for your services.
Please do make sure to read over your own state laws in regards to certification requirements.
We are currently working on a certification program which will likely be available by September 2023.
Are the in person classes mandatory?
Yes, you must be at every class in order to receive your certificate of completion.
If you become sick in the middle of the 5 day course, you'll be required to finish the class at a later date.
How long are the in-person days?
Class days run from 9:30am to 5:30pm.
We have a 1 hour lunch break at 12:30 to 1:30.
Fridays end at around 3:30pm so folks can leave early to catch an evening flight.
Are there any pre-recorded videos that I need to watch before the in person class?
Yes.
In order to be prepared for this class, you'll need to know about infant cranial bone structures, how they form, and the effects of birth on the infant skull.
There are about 2 hours of videos to watch before the in person classes begin.
Where is the training held?
The majority of the in person trainings are held in Toronto, Ontario, at 192 Spadina Avenue, close to Queen St and Spadina Avenue intersection.
If you are interested in becoming a host for an in person training in the US or European country, please send us an email and we would be happy to send along our requirements of a host.
