ABOUT LAURA CST, CLEC, HCHI, HCHD

Laura Hanstad (she/her) is a Craniosacral Therapist, birth doula, childbirth educator, lactation counselor, Reiki Master and mother of five serving the Twin Cities metro area.  She trained in craniosacral therapy and myofascial unwinding through Dr. Carol Philips' Dynamic Body Balancing, a rigorous 100-hour training program.
Laura works with adults, infants and children in her in-home office in Maple Grove and offers in-home treatment throughout the Twin Cities as well.  This gives families various pricing and schedule options and comfort levels, such as a new mother who should not leave their home yet and needs assistance for themself or their infant. 
Fortunately, Laura was introduced to craniosacral therapy when she was younger and then through seeing the huge impact it could have during birth and with lactation, she decided to begin the training to support individuals in getting to the root cause of issues and find optimal well-being.  She is also a Usui Reiki Master and can add that into her work.
Laura has worked with clients with symptoms/concerns ranging from lactation problems including pre and post-release for tongue ties and lip ties, to headaches and migraines, pain, constipation, tremors, autism, fetal positioning, speech, torticollis and hip dysplasia, mood and temperament, and so much more!
