Ds5 is dealing with encopresis/ chronic constipation.
I consulted with a woman who advises in such cases, and she recommended we take our son for cranial.

I'm not into alternative health really, and I'm trying to figure out if I should get past my discomfort and go for cranial therapy. (I'm not even exactly sure what that entails!)

Does anyone have any experience with this? Would appreciate hearing about it.

Yup. We've gone that route too.
Struggled for months, laxatives, toilet time,, etc... but didn't see strong results.

I scheduled with another GI, in September.

Bt in the meantime, I'm looking into anything that could help.

I don’t mean to derail your thread but if you are in NY area, can you share which GI you went to or are going to? I am looking for GI for Encopresis for my 6 year old.

Definitely didn't see results right away. It actually ended up going away after we got fed up using mirilax. And we decided to take a break. Hatzlucha it's really really hard.

We're scheduled with Dr berezin.

My pediatrician recommended him, but I haven't been there yet, so I can't vouch for him.

The previous one... I do not recommend him.
