Jeanne Matthews
OTR/L

Jeanne has been using craniosacral therapy along with traditional occupational therapy for 12 years, and has been thrilled with the results that can be achieved with this gentle hands on approach. She has seen immediate results with newborns with a variety of problems, including nursing, difficulty calming, or with restricted movement. She agrees with Dr. Upledger that it would be wonderful if all newborns could be seen!

Children and adults of all ages can benefit from treatment, as CST releases restrictions that interfere with optimal function, be it a physical or emotional issue. She has worked with children with learning problems, sensory integration dysfunction, difficulty writing and those unable to focus or attend to the task at hand. She sees adults with TMJ dysfunction, pain, cumulative trauma, brain injury, stroke, impaired movement, headaches, difficulty with sleep, and depression.

She enjoys combining her skills as an occuptional therapist with her training in craniosacral therapy and myofascial release. Jeanne is also trained in the use of therapeutic essential oils, which are a perfect adjunct to this natural way of healing.

My Skills
Jeanne graduated from Western Michigan University with a BS in occupational therapy. Intern work included a hospital with a regional center for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, and a psychiatric day treatment center. Work experience includes hospitals, out patient rehab centers, schools, and home health.

She was trained in myofascial release by John Barnes. She has also been trained in sensory integration, neurodevelopmental treatment, hand therapy, writing programs, and ergonomics and body mechanics. Jeanne has trained with Upledger through the advanced level, including the pediatric course.

Her background in OT enables her to instruct clients in additional information. Parents of infants are instructed in general development, sensory integration, and the importance of tummy time. Parents of older children are instructed in home programs to meet their child's needs. Adults may be instructed in stress management and relaxation, or stretches and exercises to maintain gains. Jeanne continues work in occupational therapy for those who do not have insurance coverage at hospital based centers.
