Colette Crawford RN, BSN, IBCLC, RPYT-E

About Me

My specialty is in working with pregnant women and their infants and children. I often work with the whole family when treating an infant or child. It has been my great fortune to work with thousands of mothers and babies as a maternity registered nurse in labor and delivery, postpartum and public health, and through my ground-breaking prenatal and postpartum yoga program at the Seattle Holistic Center dba Sri Janani Yoga.

I completed the lactation program at the University of California San Diego and interned at the Swedish Lytle Center for Pregnancy and Newborns in Seattle, WA. This has been a great complement to my work as a CranioSacral practitioner.

I have assisted hundreds of women in labor and early postpartum care, including being an international board certified lactation consultant. Since 1989 I have taught prenatal yoga to thousands of women, their families and yoga teachers from all over the world.

Another one of my specialties is therapeutic yoga. In 1992 I created Heal Your Back as a result of my own healing journey using yoga after I had suffered a severe back injury in a car accident while eight months pregnant. At this time I experienced my first CranioSacral Therapy treatment which gave me great benefit. After years of referring out I received certificates from Upledger Institute to practice CranioSacral Therapy for all ages with a specialty in pregnancy and pediatrics.

My commitment is to helping you on your journey of health, healing and spiritual growth.
