About Craniosacral Therapies

A holistic and integrated blend to balance the nervous system and activate the vagus nerve for deep relief

What is it?

A holistic and integrated blend to balance the nervous system and activate the vagus nerve for deep stress relief. Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, noninvasive and hands-on treatment that may provide relief from pain, ameliorate side effects of cancer treatment and reduce stress that exacerbates autoimmune conditions and chronic illness.

How it works

CST focuses on the gentle placement of hands to help release tension in your body’s connective tissue. This is known as fascia. Fascia is the Latin word for band. It’s a casing found throughout your body that holds your organs, glands, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, brain and spinal cord. The fascia forms a body-wide connective tissue network with its own 'language', fluid dynamics, nutrient needs and blood flow. A 'snag' in one area can effect the entire system or a distant body part, just as a snag in the hem of your sweater, if pulled, creates a tug, rip or tear in the shoulder or neckline. This ubiquitous tissue is highly innervated and sends a ton of information to your brain, telling you whether you are safe or not, injured or healthy, sick or well, and more.

Self Healing

The human body is interconnected, both structurally and functionally. This means that one area of your body can affect another. The goal of CST is tension relief (fascial clearance). This may help other connected parts of your body function better. This is why everyone can benefit from this service at least once to balance and correct underlying issues before they become a problem. Once you have a problem or issue, the wisdom of your body can assist in the healing and recovery process to keep you thriving and further your healing.

What is a session like?

A craniosacral therapy session is performed similar to massage therapy, except you stay fully clothed.
I will inform you what to expect for the session. Then i will use my hands to apply gentle pressure to different areas of your body such as head, neck, back (around your spinal column) or on areas of your body where you have symptoms. 
It’s normal to feel a sense of deep relaxation or even out of body during craniosacral therapy. You can elect to close your eyes or wear an eye mask.

and so, you're wondering...

What makes me different?

Consciously customized

A rich and cohesive blend of sensitively woven, holistic therapies geared towards you, your life challenges and your goals.

Inherent Wisdom

I believe in working with the body, not against it and using your body's own wisdom to enact change on a deeper level that lasts.

Progressive Change

I believe in leveraging the body-mind-spirt to induce natural healing, rightful intention and effortless change. Craniosacral is the perfect avenue to help do that for you.

Shifting Attention

When our nervous system is allowed to shift its attention away from pain and dysfunction, it opens up the possibilities and expands its capacity to heal....from the inside out.

Listen to Vanessa's story

Vanessa contacted me through FB from a mom's group where another mother I had worked with recommended she seek treatment with me. Having already been on the Dr. Phil show twice, gone through therapy and aftercare, she was still struggling with some after effects of trauma; identity and belief systems, physical symptoms, feeling out of touch with her body and dysfunctional relationship coping mechanisms.
