Infant Craniosacral & TummyTime! Method

You have probably heard great things about infant CST or Bodywork. The impact it can make is amazing! I find that babies with body tension also benefit from strengthening activities because tension can inhibit full range of motion and strength. Craniosacral therapy and tummy time can both improve the quality of breastfeeds and bottle feeds.

  • Erica is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. She helped my son develop his core in a playful way and tummy time became his new favorite activity! Erica is highly skilled and trained to help moms and infants with any need!

  • We are so thankful to have found Erica as a resource. We saw her for lactation services and craniosacral therapy. Erica’s approach to addressing the whole body with craniosacral therapy was exactly what he needed. Her knowledge on breastfeeding was so valuable to me as a first time mom! My baby has made so much progress and I am now confident on how to best help him. Our breastfeeding journey has significantly improved.

  • Greatly appreciated Erica's keen set of eyes and problem solving to help facilitate better quality and mechanics of tummy time and helping guide me in supporting him out of the tummy time position to promote development.
