Experience Personalized Craniosacral Sessions:Unlock Your Bodies Potential to Heal
What Happens in Craniosacral Sessions? First of All, I'd like to say that Craniosacral Therapy is not Massage. Although, there are many massage therapists who get interested in this type of manual therapy because it is so valuable in helping people to move back into...

I AM Here. You ARE Here.
There are arguments for how many universes exist. It's all a matter of perspective and understanding. Which, of course, is still very limited in the human way of thinking. We have no idea what exists out there, although we have plenty of ideas. Still, one thing we...
Embody The Deep Ease Within
Peace Inside Recently, I have noticed that the people on my table find peace and are very deeply relaxed after a Craniosacral Therapy Session. Sometimes, they even fall asleep. When they wake up, they don't necessarily notice huge changes, but they yawn and walk away...
Craniosacral answers the question, “How long until I get better”.

Embracing Wholeness and Wellness
Knots on the way to WholenessThis morning, I woke up considering wholeness. Dreaming about my early childhood. I was bathing in that quiet serene place where I felt connected to my father’s side of the family. Memories of cousins, and second cousins. aunts, and...
Young people and older people are getting forward neck posture. All the computers and the cell phones contribute greatly. But also all the sitting Americans do. It’s not good. If I had to do it again, I’d start squatting and learn yoga or pilates early on. I’d make them a life practice. But life being what it is in our culture- our postures are often misaligned as we get older. But there are things we can do to have more freedom of motion.
In my opinion, massage can help. But someone who specializes in fascia is the best bet. The fascia wraps around and through everything in the body superficially to the deep. From macro to micro and reversed. It’s a living tissue that contains and keeps us alive and in motion. When we nourish the fascia and help it remember its ability to be vital, pain can disappear.
I have clients in their 50’s and on up. They can hardly move their necks when they first come in. They are told it is arthritis. Well, they may have arthritis, but it’s the tissues that restrict or allow motion. It’s the fluids dancing with the structure that makes the change. If things can start to soften, spread and move, the bones can be adjusted or perhaps move back on their own. It’s like a wrapping. If it’s tight and stiff- how does life nourish or relinquish what it no longer needs?
Of course there are minerals, vitamins, PT and other things which can help (all part of the HELP team), but the fascia is key. People, whose doctors tell them it’s arthritis often don’t talk about the benefits of fascial work. I think this is a big mistake not including it in health protocols. In addition, learning Feldenkrais, Continuum and other movement exercises that are gentle can be essential and really help too. People don’t have to stay stuck or frozen internally. At any age, we can make choices that will help us. It may not correct the issue 100%, but it can make a huge difference.
Friends, move yourself in different ways. Be proactive with your health. We all have habits that aren’t easy to break, and when this happens- there is always someone out there with skill and experience who is willing to help. It may take time and patience. Take care-no matter which route you take.
