DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
We cannot take insurance directly. However, we can sign the insurance forms for you to send to your insurance company to request reimbursement. I can directly take FSA and HSA cards.
HOW MANY SESSIONS IS RECOMMENDED FOR AN ADULT?
A lot of clients notice relief after just one session—but when it comes to chronic things like long-term back pain, migraines, or nervous system issues, it usually takes a more consistent plan. For the best results, I typically recommend coming in every other week for about two months. While it’s common to feel a shift after that first visit, it’s the steady, ongoing work that really helps things stick.
HOW MANY SESSIONS IS RECOMMENDED FOR A CHILD?
For kids 0–12, shorter but consistent sessions tend to work best. I usually recommend starting with a 45-minute visit, then doing a couple of 30-minute follow-ups each week after that. Since I often book out a few weeks ahead, it’s a good idea to schedule your initial session and follow-ups together—just to make sure your kiddo has a spot on my calendar after that first visit.
I HAVE AN URGENT SITUATION WITH MY CHILD, CAN I BE SEEN SOONER?
I keep a couple of hours open each week for time-sensitive cases. If your baby is under 6 months and dealing with things like feeding challenges, colic, major tummy troubles, or had a tough birth (including interventions like vacuum or forceps), I’ll do my best to get you in quickly. Just send a note to Contact@doulajandra.com and share a bit about what’s going on—we’re here to help.
IS CRANIOSACRAL LIKE A MASSAGE?
This question comes up a lot. While CranioSacral is a hands on modality like massage, a massage will focus only on external soft tissue (muscles, and tendons). Whereas CST works with your Central Nervous System (CNS). Therefore it is a modality that can enact much deeper and lasting change throughout the body, affecting any structures within.
WHO CAN RECEIVE CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY?
CST can benefit almost everyone of any age 0-100+. There are a few conditions, however, CranioSacral therapy may not be appropriate for and you’ll need to talk with your CST practitioner and/or physician.
Your session will need to be postponed if you have experienced any of the following and have NOT been released for treatment by your physician:
Recent Concussion
Blood Clots
Recent Traumatic Brain Injury
Recent Brain Aneurysm
CranioSacral Therapy may not be right for you if you have:
Cerebral Swelling
Structural defects in the cerebellum such as Arnold-Chiari malformation
Any disorder that causes an increase amount of intercranial pressure or fluid buildup
WILL CRANIOSACRAL HELP WITH _______?
CST is a broad spectrum modality and can treat and relieve symptoms of many illnesses and conditions. Most likely CST can assist with your overall function. If you a have a specific question about an illness or condition, please do not hesitate to ask your therapist.
*CranioSacral assessment and treatment is not meant to be a replacement for diagnosis and conventional treatment of any serious condition but it is excellent as a complementary therapy or as an additional non-surgical treatment option.
