Conditions that Ebb and Ease helps:

• Hypertonia/hypotonia- high/low muscle tone

• Trauma

• Strabismus (Esotropia & Exotropia)

  Strabismus is when the eyes don’t point in the same direction at the same time.

  • Esotropia is when one eye turns inward.

  • Exotropia is when one eye turns outward.

  This can affect depth perception, balance, and visual comfort.

  Strabismus can absolutely affect academics and overall body position and tension patterns. After all, cross lateral eye tracking is necessary for reading during academic tasks. Also, the positioning of the eye affects the manner in which the entire body grows and develops to compensate. If one eye pulls out or in, then the opposing side of the body may tense up to compensate. Ebbe and Ease works to re-pattern these compensations.

  Issues Associated with Infancy:

• Torticollis

  Torticollis is when a baby or child prefers turning the head more to one side than the other.

  It can be caused by tightness in the neck muscles, tension in the body, or difficulty accessing both sides of movement.

  Plagiocephaly & Brachycephaly

  These refer to flat spots on a baby’s head, caused by spending more time on one part of the skull.

  • Plagiocephaly: flat spot more on one side.

  • Brachycephaly: head looks flatter across the back.

• Feeding issues (i.e. trouble nursing)
