Nancy Burke, CST

Nancy has been my cranio sacral therapist for almost twenty years, since I was nine years old. She has a happy heart and great patience, especially with kids. Energy healing can work wonders. Just remember that healers are mechanics meant to bring back equilibrium, not work miracles.

Nancy has done body work on my entire family for various reasons: Asthma, back pain, knee pain, jaundice issues, etc… She’s just amazing!!! I’ve known her for years and she has a big heart and loves working with people.

The cranial sacral work (just 2 sessions) with my infant son produced clear improvements in his latch and the relaxation of his jaw.
I’m the first to be cautious around new and somewhat vague-​sounding treatments, but this was very non-​invasive and yet had a big impact. I’d say it was well worth it.

I’ll tell you up front that I’m not fully convinced that cranial sacral work actually does anything, however my experience with Nancy was nothing short of fantastic. Due to some unfortunate in utero positioning, my daughter ended up with some neck issues that made breast feeding and latching somewhat difficult. We tried a number of things to help her (physical therapy, yoga) and per a recommendation, we decided to give Nancy a try as well. To jump to the end, our daughter got all of her issues resolved and while I can’t speak for cranial sacral work on a whole, I can tell you that every moment I was there, I felt my daughter was in very good hands as she was always so relaxed and happy to be there.
In addition, Nancy is a very successful bee keeper who produces some of the most delicious honey ever! She also has a sliding pay scale so that those with more limited budgets can afford her services. We left the Bay Area a few months ago and Nancy is one of the things I really miss about the area. Some day, I’m sure my daughter is going to ask about her birth story and when I tell it, I’m going to tell her all about Nancy.

Nancy was a tremendous help when my now 2 year old was born. We had some latching issues along w/​my daughter being a unplanned c-​section. She was instrumental in helping us getting things going. She was patient, professional & well informed. I would highly recommend her work. I am expecting another girl in a few weeks and will see Nancy again if need be.
