CFT core questions - Gillespie Approach–Craniosacral Fascial Therapy

Core Questions

Many questions can arise in the inquiring mind at 2AM. Throughout history childbirth pain for the mother is legendary. Does it really have to be? What if the mother-to-be had CFT before the pregnancy? Could she have an easier, more pleasant experience? More importantly, if she did have pain during the pregnancy, labor, and/or delivery, what did the fetus experience? Wouldn’t there be a good clinical reason why that baby might be fussy/distressed? Since the craniosacral fascial system holds the memory of all trauma from conception, wouldn’t you expect that the newborn might cry during CFT? After the session, wouldn’t you expect that the infant might be more relaxed?….a lot of dots to connect.
