Should we have baby craniosacral therapy?

At first I thought you were talking about the helmets some children need to wear when their head become misshapen, usually because of too much back time, bouncer time etc. So, I looked it up, and was surprised at what I found. Personally, it sounds like a bunch of hogwash (quackwatch seems to agree — see link). So, I wouldn’t do it, especially on a baby whose head is already a normal shape after a few hours. Why would he/she even need treatment if everything is normal? My first child got stuck on my pubic bone and ended up needing a csection. His head was conical and misshapen for a couple weeks, he actually had a laceration on his scalp from being stuck for so long – poor baby, but it too went to a normal shape by itself within a couple weeks.
