When we are working with newborns/infants, we primarily have clean physical and emotional releases due to birth trauma in an otherwise healthy craniosacral fascial system. But we cannot forget that other factors in this system for babies not responding completely may need to be addressed. Possibilities include bacteria (like Lyme), viruses (like RSV), heavy metals (like lead), and parasites (like worms). We always need to remember that our newborn work is just one piece of the well-being puzzle.
