Synergy Wellness is independently owned business by Lesha Nelson in the Salt Lake City area. Lesha Nelson is an Occupational Therapist with a private practice that specializes in Craniosacral Therapy for pregnancy, infants, and children as well as adult care for TMJ, TBI, concussion, and headaches/neck pain.
A few times a year I offer small group classes in my personal office working with babies, toddlers, children, and family groups. Working in small groups (2-4 people) allows you to have hands on experience working with me and the other group members using Craniosacral Therapy. Students acquire more skill in less time with less effort when the group is small. Every question gets asked and answered. Each student gets one-on-one guidance right when it’s needed.
Maybe you have a strong interest in working with babies and children but maybe you aren’t sure if you have the skills or practice. Or perhaps you have questions that haven’t been answered in our traditional trainings and classes. Because of this, and due to the incredible demand to help babies and children, I’ve decided to do something about this situation.
In this class you will learn the following techniques to grow your practice:
3 days in a small group setting in my office in Salt Lake where you will observe how I work with mom, babies, toddlers, and children.
Separate class time for you to ask any questions in a safe environment.
Additional education and time spent learning development milestones, breastfeeding information, chakras, and archetypes. I use these modalities as I treat my patients. I have spent the last 8 years effectively incorporating them into my sessions.

There is a HUGE need for more Craniosacral Therapists in the Salt Lake Valley and surrounding areas to work with adults, babies and children. If you are a therapist and would like to improve your skills using Craniosacral therapy in your office, contact me to further discuss a mentorship program. I will work with you in finding the best fit for both of us to further your education and hands on training.
A few times a year I do training classes in small groups in my office specifically working with babies and children. Please read the information above and inform me if you would like to be contacted when I teach these groups.
In this training I teach you how to do what I do. I teach you where to put your hands (assessment skills), what to do when they get there (treatment skills) and when to stop (signs of release). My background as an Occupational Therapists provides detailed understanding and application of anatomy, physiology, pathology, psycho social and other details. In addition my extra-circular training in Eastern Medicine, breastfeeding, meditation, and psychosomatics only adds to our treatment sessions.
When you register and pay to hold your spot I will contact you shortly for confirmation and more information. If you have any questions, please contact me at any time.
I am in the process of compiling resources that I use that I think would help you too! If there is something not listed that helps you, reach out and let me know and I will add it to this list.
