Looking for the Best Fitting Craniosacral Therapist for You?

Finding the best craniosacral therapist for you involves a few key steps. Here’s how you can go about it:

1. Ask people you trust who have experienced Craniosacral Therapy first hand for Recommendations.  Craniosacral Therapy is a very personal experience, and word of mouth is very helpful.  

2. Check Qualifications: Look for a craniosacral therapist who is certified by a reputable organization, like the Upledger Institute. The work of Dr. John has been being taught for close to 40 years because it is powerful and deeply healing. Certification through the school shows that a student has received proper manual and somaticemotional training, and can provide expertise to your session.  A practitioner is still a student until they have gone through the rigorous training and testing to become Certified.

3. Read Reviews: Search online for craniosacral reviews or testimonials. Look for therapists with positive feedback, especially regarding the specific issues you’re hoping to address (e.g., pain, stress, injury recovery).  Google is a great resource:   Click here

6. Trust Your Instincts: The relationship with your therapist is important. You should feel safe, comfortable, and listened to. If you don’t feel a connection, it’s okay to try someone else.
