Sarah Balis - Northern Craniosacral Therapy - (Norhtcote)
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) is a gentle and non-invasive treatment that is good for people of all ages with a variety of conditions. During pregnancy it is excellent at helping to regulate the nervous system, working with aches and pains, and allowing the mother to be fully present in her body. BCST is great for newborns as it is subtle and non invasive - no pressure of any kind - and can really assist with the mother's healing post-partum. Sarah works in the northern suburbs of Melbourne and can arrange home visits for newborns. sarah@northerncraniosacral.com.au |
