So while I treat women throughout pregnancy,it's so beneficial to treat post partum..for both mum and baby.It's not unusual to work also with partners and siblings too...The next time you come in during pregnancy, it's a 2 person thing..babies are so aware of everything..so during and after delivery..its wonderful to balance nervous syste(mum and baby)..and so much more...21years working with families..from my hands to you 💟

After giving birth, it takes a woman 6 months to heal her wounds, about 12 months to recover physically, 2 years to balance her hormones, and up to 5 years to rediscover her identity.
And through it all, she still shows up with love in her tired eyes. Even when she feels lost, she holds her baby close and keeps going. The world expects her to do it all without missing a step.

Your memories may live beyond your brain, scientists suggest

New research is challenging one of our deepest assumptions about memory—that it exists only in the brain. Scientists are finding evidence that memories may also be stored in other parts of the body, hinting at a far more complex system of information storage than we ever imagined. This discovery opens new possibilities for understanding consciousness, healing trauma, and even treating neurological diseases.

Experiments with cellular memory suggest that certain proteins and molecular structures in the body could carry traces of experience, influencing how we respond to the world. This could explain phenomena such as “body memory,” where people physically react to past experiences even when they cannot consciously recall them. Some studies even suggest that the immune system and other organ systems might play roles in shaping how memories are encoded and expressed.

If true, this reshapes how we see human identity. Memory may not be confined to neurons firing in the brain but could be woven into the body itself. That means healing the body could also help heal the mind, and vice versa. Such insights could lead to new therapies for trauma recovery, degenerative diseases, and mental health conditions, moving us closer to a holistic approach to medicine.

This discovery is both humbling and inspiring. It reminds us that human beings are not simply brains carried by bodies, but fully interconnected systems where mind and matter work together in profound ways. As science continues to uncover the secrets of memory, we may one day learn how to unlock the body’s hidden archives, transforming our understanding of self and the mysteries of consciousness.

👶 Discover the Power of CranioSacral Therapy for Pediatrics 👶

When it comes to our children, ensuring their well-being from the very start is essential. As Dr. John E. Upledger once said, “One of the best things we can do for our children is to have them begin life with smoothly functioning craniosacral systems.” 🌟

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) offers gentle, effective care that supports the health and development of our little ones. Whether you're a parent or a practitioner, understanding how CST can benefit pediatric patients is key.

We are now approaching shortly..not yet though!
Back to school and college.
I heard only this morning.the incidence of eating disorder admissions has doubled since the pandemic amongst under 18s.
As many of you may already know, we have sadly experienced this .
Those figures are sad to read.
The signs initially are subtle..but this insidious disease is relentless ..and very serious.
This time of year and approaching new starts ..stressful situations..confidence and peer pressure can all be triggers.
Look after your young people.
Support and safe space is really key.
The later effects are obvious ..but the mind not so obvious.
My room for any relaxing session is a safe space.
Please reach out if any of this resonates with you.
In the meantime..let this glorious weather in Ireland continue for a bit longer.
From my hands to you.
Take care.
💟
