IBCLCs and Craniosacral Therapists: Strange Bedfellows or a Perfect Match?
Berg-Drazin, PCurriculums:
This article talks about CranioSacral Therapy
(CST) and babies with tongue-tie. CST complements IBCLCs working with the
families of babies with tongue-tie all too often are the first ones to notice
the symptoms and suggest treatment. Even after the tongue has been released,
these infants continue to struggle with breastfeeding. The tongue plays an
integral role in breastfeeding, but it is also crucial to other oral functions
such as speech, respiration, oral hygiene, swallowing, and chewing. The tongue
is connected through the extrinsic muscles to bone both above and below the
oral cavity. The restriction of the tongue results in associated strains in the
body. We will follow the muscular connections and origins to understand the
influences in the body. Craniosacral therapy (CST) has its origin in
osteopathy, which teaches that structure and function are reciprocally
interrelated. When structure is compromised, function will be as well. CST is a
perfect complement to help these infants' bodies release the tensions created
as well as to aid in rebalancing structurally and somatically. A case study
will illuminate the tremendous impact CST can have on children suffering from
tongue-tie

Services for children with autism in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Fahad M Alnemary, Hesham M Aldhalaan, Gabriela Simon-Cereijido, Faisal M AlnemaryCurriculums:
Little information is available about autism spectrum disorder services in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A sample of 205 parents completed an online survey about the use of autism spectrum disorder services for their children. The results revealed that on average, children began services by 3.3 years. Most parents reported utilizing non-medical treatments followed by biomedical treatments and cultural and religious treatment. The age at the initiation of services and the type of treatments used differed by parent’s income, educational attainment, the extent of knowledge about autism spectrum disorders, and geographic location. Some child characteristics also influenced the use of services. The disparities in service utilization in Saudi Arabia point to the need to develop policy and interventions that can mitigate the paucity of services for children with autism spectrum disorders. More research is needed to better understand service use and the decision-making processes that underlie treatment selection by parents of children with autism spectrum disorders in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The Symbiotic Partnership of Dentistry And Craniosacral
Benjamin Shield, Ph.D.Curriculums:
This article will explore the symbiotic partnership between the dental profession and craniosacral therapy. With the simple integration of craniosacral techniques, the dental professional will significantly enhance the effectiveness of existing modalities, increase the economic return in their practice, and benefit from greater patient satisfaction. The goal is to better serve our patients. In addition to enhanced dental care, CST offers the dental professional the ability to solve many instances of craniocervical pain and dysfunction. The dental professional is in an unique position to correct underlying anatomical and functional dysfunction that may have been unseen or mistreated by other professionals.
