Once again this year Dr. Peters will be a presenter at the XV International APPPAH Congress November 11-14 at the Asilomar Conference Grounds in Pacific Grove, California. The theme of this year's Congress is "Embracing the Science of Prenatal and Birth Psychology: What We Know, How We Know It." Dr. Peters' presentation is entitled "Cranial Treatments of Newborns Alleviate Pain and Optimize Growth and Development." Details of the Congress may be found at: http://www.birthpsychology.com/congress/2010/ .   Here is the abstract of Dr. Peters' presentation:

" When skeletal growth exceeds the capacity of soft tissue elasticity, pathological tightness occurs. Twenty years of practice have demonstrated to Dr. Peters that distortional patterns in bone and tissue begin in utero, are exacerbated during skeletal growth periods and can persist into adulthood. We discuss this process and describe manipulative methods of remediation. These methods can alleviate pain and other distressing symptoms in the newborn. This facilitates optimal growth and development."
