Donation based craniosacral therapy drop in clinic for babies and adults

Craniosacral drop-in clinic

Tuesdays mornings 9.20-11.30pm (do come in by 9.10am to write your name down) at: Every Tuesdays except on School half-terms

Opens on the 2nd of September 2025

Hornsey Vale Community Centre  60 Mayfield Road N8 9LP.

The Clinic is non-appointment based, closed during school holidays and is for all – babies, children and adults. Private sessions are available all year round.

Arriving at the clinic around 9.10am is recommended to secure a time-slot for your session as at time could be very busy. The clinic is run on a first come, first served basis.

We will be asking to fill in a simple form for adults and for your baby/children. 

All the notes and details will be kept by the individual leader that works on that day.

Maria Esposito BSc (Hons) and Kate Leftley are running the clinic in alternate weeks (Forms need to be filled for each of us as we cannot share them)

The duration of the session is 20 minutes, but the results are amazing and powerful, from babies to adults even in a short time. There will be one to a max of two people working on you.

This is donation based clinic and any donation will be appreciated so that the next person can attend the clinic, and we can carry on with the clinic. There is no minimum or max donation.

The clinic is closed during Haringey school half terms

Private sessions are still available on school half terms (at N15 6HA)

This community clinic was set up by our wonderful colleague Richard Kramer 20 years ago and thanks to his determination and love for the Craniosacral therapy that this clinic is very successful.

Craniosacral therapy for Babies

Craniosacral therapy is a very gentle but powerful therapy. Babies love the treatment and connect to it very well (there is no manipulation of any kind). Any type of trauma from minor to bigger can be relieved with one or two treatments.

Things that CST can work on:

• Colic’s which are very frequent in babies
• Traumatic birth (C-section- Forceps – Ventouse, very fast birth, etc.)
• Frequency of throwing up the milk
• Sleepless babies
• Connection with mother and babies (the mother needs to be treated as well as the baby for both reflux and connection with the baby)
• What I worked on with CST are:
• Teething
• Coughing
• Frequent colds for the babies, Toddlers and children

Craniosacral Therapy for adults

Cranio-sacral therapy is a subtle and profound healing form.

In a typical cranio-sacral session, you will usually lie fully-clothed on a treatment couch. The therapist will make contact by placing their hands usually lightly on your body and tuning in. The first thing you will probably notice is a sense of deep relaxation, which will generally last throughout the session. This release of tension often extends into everyday life.

CST work on the balancing the autonomic nervous system, to allow the body system to be calmer, relaxed and embrace life in a calm way.

Sometimes the benefits are not immediately noticeable but become obvious on returning to a familiar environment. The work is often deeply moving and exhilarating.

The benefit can also be noticed after few days in some people. The experience is different from each baby, child or adult according to their own need of balance and adjustments.
