Come on out for Coffee and a treat on Saturday August 1st at 10:30am! We will be hosting the amazing Karen Gayton from Gayton Therapeutics:

“I am a licensed reflexologist and a registered and licensed occupational therapist. I have worked with infants and children for 40 years as a pediatric OT and now as a CranioSacral therapist for over 20 years. I have specialty training in pediatric CranioSacraltherapy/ CSTthrough the Upledger Institute and I am a teaching assistant a couple times a year for their courses. I mentor area therapists who are starting their training in CST and I lead a local study group for CST.

Treating infants is my passion – especially those with tethered oral tissues, body tension, torticollis, plagiocephaly, brachycephaly, scaphocephaly, brachial plexus injury, Erb’s palsy, colic, reflux, oral-motor dysfunction, and sleep issues. I also have training in myofascial release, Baby Begin re-positioning and stretching program, Lori Hendrickson infant cranial protocols and fascial stretching for torticollis and oral functioning, several webinars in tethered oral tissues, hands-on feeding course work, certification in Sensory Integration/Processing, and Carol Gray fascial unwinding and body balancing. This holistic background allows me to bring a multi-faceted approach to my therapy sessions with infants and their families.

I do work with moms during pregnancy for various body balancing issues, and post partum I specialize in addressing depression and anxiety, through CranioSacral vagus nerve techniques, lymph drainage therapy, reflexology, as well as Healing Touch energy work to bring a balance between the parasympathetic and sympathetic systems.”

Come join us over a yummy beverage & wonderful company. 🤍
We will be at Unbound Physical Therapy 2385 Vermont Ave E, Bismarck, ND 58504.

The way we move during labor shapes far more than our comfort. It helps determine how a baby navigates through the pelvis, and whether a birth can unfold with fewer interventions!

In this replay episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with Brittany Sharpe McCollum, a childbirth educator, doula, lactation counselor, and pelvic biomechanics educator. Brittany explains how the bones of the pelvis move during labor, why that movement matters for fetal positioning, and how everyone can benefit from intentional position changes during labor-- whether you're planning an unmedicated birth or not!

They explore the three planes of the pelvis, why opening the pelvic inlet and outlet require opposite movements, and how to match specific positions to where the baby is located in the pelvis. Brittany also shares her 5-4-3 rule for position changes, practical tips for inductions and epidurals, the power of asymmetrical positioning, and why movement is one of the few birth tools that carries benefit without risk.
