Why might your child come to me for craniosacral therapy?
Below are common reasons why children and adolescents come to me for support:
Everyday life is overwhelming and becomes too much: Your child feels overwhelmed by the daily demands, perhaps even anxious.
Concentration difficulties: Promoting focus and improving the ability to concentrate.
Support for attention- and learning difficulties: with or without a formal diagnosis.
Support during orthodontic treatment and braces: Help with adapting to dental treatment, e.g. help with pain relief with braces.
Stress management and emotional support: Promoting relaxation and emotional balance.
Support for an ‘overactive nervous system’, hyperactivity or high sensitivity (HSP): with or without a diagnosis.
Sleep difficulties: Promoting improved sleep quality and inner calm.
A safe space to express themselves: A place where your child can talk about anything, but doesn’t have to.
A session is 45 minutes and costs 775 Sek.
Of course, you’re welcome to come with other kinds of physical, emotional and mental challenges. The above mentioned are some of the most common topics i support kids and teens with.
What does it feel like during a treatment?
This is individual, but many experience calm and relaxation. Some experience a slight tingling in the body, others fall asleep.
Are there side effects to craniosacral treatments?
You can feel relaxed or a little tired afterwards, but there are no typical side effects after a craniosacral treatment. Many of my clients feel deeply relaxed after a session, and have a great night's sleep following a session.
3. How will I be feeling afterwards?
What happens during a session?
Subsequently we head to the massage table, where you lie completely clothed in comfortable clothing. We may work lying down, sitting, standing or in motion. I will come into contact with your body using a gentle, often perceived as calming touch. Through this touch we’ll come into contact with the body's different systems and see how I can best support you towards improved well-being today.
2. Treatment with light touch
We begin every session by discussing needs, goals and what we’ll be focusing on today. Based on this, we work on the changes you’d like to make, to support your wellbeing in the best possible way. A parent or guardian is welcome to attend all sessions; naturally, you’ll be present for the first session with younger children – after that, we’ll decide together whether your child would prefer to come on their own or continue to be accompanied.
1. Goals, needs and desire for change
I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing the deeply beneficial effects of craniosacral therapy with Nathalie several times. Her treatments have supported me not only in easing physical discomfort, but also in strengthening my mental wellbeing during challenging phases of life. Nathalie’s warm and genuinely kind nature creates an atmosphere in which it is easy to feel completely at ease and cared for.

This is highly individual and depends on what your goals are with the process.
I recommend 4-6 sessions at individually determined intervals to start. Perhaps this is enough for you to sustainably create the change you are looking for, maybe you’d like to keep coming. In the 5th session we’ll do a status-check and discuss where you are at and how to proceed.
Many of my clients experience desired changes within 3-5 sessions. Some are done after this, others continue to come with more spaced out appointments for upkeep or prevention.
How many sessions are needed?
This is the form of craniosacral work I primarily work with. As a biodynamic craniosacral therapist, I meet you with great awareness, humility and presence. My aim is to help you activate and regulate your body’s self-healing capacity, and to find inner health and well-being. Biodynamic craniosacral work combines scientific anatomical and physiological bodywork with inner processes, with the ultimate goal of helping the whole person find balance.
Fundamental to this method is the distinct way in which I as a practitioner come into contact with my client's system each session - it can best be described as a very finely tuned listening. I listen with my hands and an open heart. This gentle way of making contact acknowledges what wants to come forward and creates a connection with the body’s inherent self-healing ability, and inner self regulation can begin to unfold.
