I’m feeling so refreshed and inspired after spending 5 days with my colleagues from around the world, including members of my gifted community here, in the bay area, whom I work with offering our FREE INFANT CRANIOSACRAL CLINIC every month (more information is posted below, on this page). We shared and learned together how to continue to serve Mom’s and Babies through our hands-on craniosacral practice!
I was blessed to hear presentation on breastfeeding and tongue tie by respected lactation consultants Alison Hazelbaker, PhD, IBCLC, FILCA, CST, RCST and Melissa Cole, IBCLC, RLC. These women are on the cutting edge of this issue and generously shared all of their clinical experience and current research on the topic.
An amazing presentation was given on Torticollis & Plagiocephaly – Breastfeeding Impacts, Treatment Plans & Prevention Strategies, by Michelle Emanuel, OTR/L, CST, NBCR, CIMI; Carol Gray, Midwife; LMT, Alison Hazelbaker, PhD, IBCLC, FILCA, CST, RCST.
I also had the honor to experience a profound presentation by Etienne Peirsman on the beautiful process he uses to meet babies and help them resolve tension patterns in their systems.
A presentation on baby wearing and the most developmentally safe carriers on the market by Tanja Martinson, LCBE, brought me a lot more information to share with my clients when they are trying to make the best choice when purchasing this equipment for their new babies.
Lisa Gillispie, BSW, LMT, CST, CPT-RES (who’s alignment video is posted below on this page), shared with us some of the most recent understanding of alignment and how it effects us in prenatal, birth, and postpartum comfort and healing.
Those are just a few of the names I’m dropping out of shear excitement and gratitude to have had the opportunity to participate in this wonderful event, and bring all of this back to my work here with all of you- my lovely clients!
