Why Choose Craniosacral Massage?
Craniosacral Therapy is gentle and effective.
Often clients who find their way into my Craniosacral Therapy (CST) office are frustrated because they have searched for help elsewhere without much success regarding their health and wellbeing.
In this blog, I won’t claim that CST is going to fix everything in one session. Nothing I know of can. But what CST does do is listen to the Craniosacral rhythm and help awaken the natural healing energy in your body to your benefit. Your body knows how to heal and that intelligence Within leads a CST Therapist through the session to support healthy movement and integration. If you are a person who is overstressed, gradually you will begin to relax and re-center. If you are a person who has low energy, the nervous system usually picks up and helps you to feel more alive. With issues of nerve compression or stuckness in your body, the gentle techniques may remind your body how to release and open up to its natural organic functioning ability. Some of my clients with MS feel more connected, others with learning challenges such as ADHD and dyslexia find more clarity, one client I had with fibromyalgia felt much more free and comfortable in her body. It’s the body’s own healing ability that begins to resolve longstanding issues.
Through our studies at the Upledger Institute, we learn many skills to work with the Cranial System and the many aspect of healthy living , but our clients are our best instructors. Believe it or not, your body is always searching to find balance and health. We are trained at the Upledger Institute to follow a basic 10 step protocol. But as our experience increases, we learn to blend those skills with objective listening and a more free form type of session. For example, you might find the first session to be a general listening beginning at the feet and moving up toward the head, but by the third or fourth visit, once a deeper relationship is established, the dialogue runs the session verses the fundamentals. We follow the CST and the energy and see where it leads. It’s an incredible experience to trust this profound process of healing.
I love being a Craniosacral Therapist. I feel better after each session because it gives me a structure to be mindful, in respect, and using my skills to promote Health. It is my sacred time as it is yours to be in a relationship for the highest good. Sometimes, whether therapist or client, we need to set aside time to have the intention to be at our very best.That’s why I offer sessions and make sure that I continually receive support myself. We are all in the cycle of life together, and it is in working together that we feel our best.
