Influences of craniosacral therapy on the health and development of infants and young children
Tracy Masiello, Ph.D., & Jennifer Pace, B.A.
Volume 4, Number 1
The influence of craniosacral therapy was examined in studies including 69 children with and without
disabilities or delays. Craniosacral therapy is a light touch intervention used by trained practitioners to
address restrictions in the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord.
The reports included mostly case studies to determine the benefits of the practice on the health and
development of infants and young children. Despite the fact that positive results were reported in all
studies, methodological and procedural problems raise questions about the efficacy of the practice
with infants and young children. The need for better designed and implemented studies is indicated.
Value of craniosacral therapy is unclear
