"I have known Michael Hahn as a knowledgeable, patient teacher, a gifted practitioner and one of my most memorable former students. He is
clearly dedicated to lifelong learning. Michael treats babies with confidence, sensitivity and presence. He communicates skillfully and compassionately
with parents. I am so excited for the lucky babies who will receive Michael's gentle, loving work. My greatest joy is teaching what I know about CST and
infants to people who can use the information for the greatest good. Michael is one of those people."

Cranial therapy is extremely beneficial for newborns, infants and children as they move through the many stages of their development.
Cranial therapy restores proper function and creates the potential for healing, growing and developing to ones full potential. All children regardless of the
nature of their birth can benefit from this work.
Listed below are some of the potential issues that can be helped with cranial work:
- Babies that are irritated
- Born cesarean
- Breathing difficulties
- Torticollis
- Difficulties with breast feeding: latching, sleepy, suckling difficulties, crying while feeding, baby with position preference, sore maternal breasts
- Baby seems uncomfortable
- Baby who has experienced invasive procedures
- Breeched baby
- Excessive spitting up
- Baby who favors turning head to one side
- Baby who arches body during crying
- Cranial bones or sutures (joints between cranial bones) that are uneven
- Baby born with the use of forceps or vacuum
Cranial work restores proper function to the tissues of the body after the birth process and during the developing years. What become individual
bones during the first decade of life are made up of multiple pieces at birth that are connected by cartilage. It is crucial that they are moving properly and that they are
in the correct position for proper growth and formation.
What to expect during the treatment:
The work is guided my Michael's hands-on assessment of the body. The body is designed to move comfortably and when restrictions are present discomfort and potential
problems develop. Very light pressures are used for both the assessments and the treatments. The treatments are not painful or
uncomfortable in anyway. Every treatment is unique for each individual because each person requires treatment specific to their body's needs. A guiding principle of
the work is that the body wants to heal, can heal, and sometimes needs a small boost in that direction. This work treats the whole, when the whole is balanced most
infants, children and adults feel better and are more vibrant.
