In this episode of Mothering From Within, host Kaili Ets, a mom of two and pediatric occupational therapist, infant craniosacral therapist, and soon-to-be-osteopath, discusses the importance of baby bodywork in relieving tension and promoting comfort. She explains how gentle therapies like craniosacral therapy and pediatric osteopathy can help babies release tension from birth-related stressors, leading to improved sleep, feeding, and overall well-being. Kaili also highlights the impact of the holidays on new moms and suggests bodywork as a thoughtful and practical gift. Tune in for insights on how bodywork supports your baby's nervous system and fosters a sense of safety and relaxation.
