5-Star CLIENT REVIEWSI brought my preschooler to Dr. Walder for craniosacral therapy (CST) as a nervous system "tune-up" before starting the new school year. She is so good with little people, following his lead with what he was comfortable with during the treatment and adapting her approach to his needs while explaining what she was doing. After just one treatment, we had several tantrum-free days (a rarity!) and he was overall more regulated, calm, and enjoyable to be around. CST helped him feel more comfortable in his body and more regulated in his nervous system.
Pediatric Integrative Care
Dr. Devorah Walder is an area-wide renowned pediatric specialist, especially in cases of tongue tie, torticollis, feeding issues, and digestive concerns in newborns and infants.
Our approach includes child-friendly non-needle techniques and herbal medicines to address a range of conditions, including ear infections, separation anxiety, tics, and bedwetting. Babies, children, and teens are all welcome in our clinic.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy (CST) for babies is a gentle, hands-on technique that aims to release tension in the baby's head, neck, and spine. CST addresses issues related to muscle tension, asymmetry, and feeding difficulties, and has been successful in reducing colic. Dr. Walder is a certified pediatric craniosacral therapist.
5-Star CLIENT REVIEWSAfter my baby’s birth, she supported him with Craniosacral Therapy/CST bodywork to improve his breastfeeding and digestion, and decrease body tension to allow him to feed better. I’m so thankful for Dr. Walder’s kind, deeply knowledgeable, and good-humored approach. At every visit, I feel supported, heard, and understood by Dr. Walder and her staff. I highly recommend Dr. Walder for fertility, pregnancy support, and breastfeeding support for both mom and baby.
