Lactation Consulting and CranioSacral Therapy

Breastfeeding: Nursing your baby should be a wonderful experience. It is a time for nourishment as well as warmth, connection, and love. But when breastfeeding presents challenges, professional support is needed. Over the last 32 years Ellen Steinberg has helped thousands of moms and babies to successfully breastfeed. In network with Aetna PPO — works with some other insurance companies too.

CranioSacral Therapy: CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a holistic, gentle-​touch technique that is used to evaluate and correct restrictions and tensions in the body. CST treatments may enhance body functioning, alleviate pain and discomfort, and increase resistance to disease. By working with the body’s craniosacral system, and its connections to the central nervous system, CST encourages your own natural healing mechanisms to effect positive changes in your body.

Ellen Steinberg’s clients range from infants and children to adults of all ages and with all kinds of concerns. However, as one of only a handful of certified lactation consultants (IBCLCs) in the US who is also a certified CranioSacral Therapist (CST), she has specialized skills to work with pregnant women as well as newborns and infants and lactating women.
