I am constantly amazed how any of us make it through the tough process of birth without suffering more damage - we are fearfully and wonderfully made. Recently a friend of mine had a baby and I was welcomed to have a cuddle and give a cranio-sacral treatment while I was there. He was just 3 days old and my over-riding last thought as I handed him back to his Mum was how blessed I am to do this work and get to cuddle babies! As I worked around the solar plexus he yelled, but gradually calmed down. I continued around the system and then left. He has been sleeping well and feeding well thus far, and having seen him again it was noticeable how calm his system felt in comparison to just after his birth, which was a c-section.

then . . .I have also worked with a little boy 5/6 yrs old who had a traumatic birth as he got stuck and his delivery became more of a feat of engineering. His system is highly charged and running too fast; causing anxiety and poor sleeping patterns. During the first treatment his speech was poor and indistinct and I was reliant on Mum to interpret for me. I was astonished the second time he came and felt I had to check with Mum that my hearing was ok; his speech was so clear I could not understand why I had found him so hard to understand the previous week. She agreed with me and commented that his grandparents had also noticed the sudden improvement.. His school had requested Speech and language therapy for him but now do not consider that he has noticeable problem.

Again, I feel like the learner, the student in all this . . . we are fearfully and wonderfully made.
