👏👏👏

Stress affects more than your mind, it impacts your whole body. 💔

Be kind to yourself. Take a breath. Rest is not laziness, it’s healing. 🌿✨

The more you know 🤓

👶 Not all tongue ties are easy to see!

Some tongue ties are obvious—a heart-shaped tongue or limited movement—but many are posterior or submucosal, making them harder to detect. A functional assessment by a trained professional is key, especially if your baby struggles with:
🤱 Latching difficulties
👅 Restricted tongue mobility

Relying on what you see alone can delay diagnosis and treatment, prolonging feeding struggles or causing long-term issues like speech or airway problems.

📌 Early awareness = smoother feeding and healthier outcomes!

Babies don't have to be difficult or uncomfortable. They just need an opportunity to make some adjustments 😊. CFT can help!

"Since soft tissue trauma over those forty weeks is ubiquitous for newborns everywhere, the craniosacral fascial system becomes restricted and creates many fussy-baby conditions. The Gillespie Approach has shown to be effective for 👶 babies everywhere we have trained. ... I feel confident that we could teach this work anywhere in the world, and all babies there would respond positively."

One of today's younger clients had to dash to the bathroom before their session, but first they quickly rushed up to the desk with hand extended while delivering these very important instructions: "Here, take care of him for me!" Then they bolted for the bathroom.
Perplexed, I looked down & saw this cute, little guy. A sweet, unexpected moment & I thought, "I love my job". 🤗
My client trusted me with this duty & I never take client trust for granted. 🥰

This is why the sacrum is a highly impactful area of your body and why I pay attention to it in my work. These ligaments provide immense skeletal support and engage in various ways to help you maneuver. Add in all the nerves in this area and you can understand why you feel pain or limited when one one of these guys is restricted in function and not fully able to support your framework. Respect the sacrum!

THIS IS WHY WE NEED TUMMY TIME FOR OUR KIDS!

"Babies NEED tummy time! At 11 months old, this little cutie should have a nicely rounded head, developed S curves in his neck and low back, and flexible legs that move in and out of various sitting positions. But, largely due to lack of time on his tummy and OVERUSE of "baby containers" such as bouncy seats, swings, and car seat carriers that go from car to grocery store to restaurant, he has positional plagiocephaly (flat skull) a big ol' C curve in his spine preventing him from getting on hands and knees to crawl, and hips and legs so tight he can't even straighten his knees! And these are only the outwardly visible problems...too much pressure on baby's spine and vision centers of the brain from lying on their backs are detrimental to development! So....tummy time, tummy time, tummy time! Do it!"
