Somato Centered Therapy on the Table

The Concept of Somato centered bodywork, was incorporated into the therapeutic process of Craniosacral Therapy many years ago at the Upledger Institute.

SomatoEmotional Release (SER) is a theraeputic process that employs and expands the principles of Craniosacral Therapy through dialogue.

This particular type of somato communication can be done in silence, or when a person begins to process, verbal cues or responses may be offered for self-discovery work. Mostly this is practiced when the Craniosacral Rythm is moving the client through a profound change. However, it is not the job of a Craniosacral Therapist to counsel. Instead, we are trained to support a person who in on the table, and who is being challenged or needs help moving through cellular memory developmental or trauma experiences. We have been trained to be very gentle and to offer some techniques that take the client inward to help them find their own deep well of Inner Resources.

Each Craniosacral Therapist has their own unique skillset to help in dialogue work. Personally, I have studied Hakomi for two years, 8 years at the Barbara Brennan School Of healing, and also studied at SPI to help my clients who have gone through trauma.

This body centered work is powerful and gentle with an organic and mindful approach to healing. It feels very integrative to our clients, as well as self-empowering.

How to Revive Your Digestion Health: Discover Visceral Manipulation

by SharonHartnett | Jul 11, 2024 | craniosacral, Craniosacral Therapy, Energy Healing, healing

Are You Experiencing Digestion Issues?

No Relief For Digestion Issues?

There are many digestion conditions that affect adults, and children too. The American diet has changed dramatically over the years, and the human body was not meant to consume the food that is being sold at grocery stores anymore. Reading a label may help but we still have no idea exactly what is being put into our foods. Which chemicals are being added, how is it genetically altered, and how it is being processed is a mystery. So we have that. Our bodies are just not getting the best nutrition they need, and overloads of chemicals, unhealthy bacteria and parasites can wreak havoc on our internal environment.

Another issue that causes problems in the digestive process is that the organs can lose their motion and motility from unhealthy diets, and also from trauma (like a car accident with a seatbelt pressing hard) or through habitual habits. The positive response to this though is to find a Visceral Manipulation Therapist from the Barral Institute who use their specialized techniques to help release organs to be freed back into healthy motion. With a healthy nudge or encouragment, things can start to turn back on. A healthy organ is living, dialoguing, and sliding against other living things inside our bodies. Functionality of the different digestion organs can dramatically improve after just one session. Movement is Life!

As a Craniosacral Therapist, I incorporate the Visceral Manipulation into sessions. With so many people coming in with Gerd, IBS, chronic constipation or diarrhea and such, visceral manipulation can be a great resource for healing. I also recommend seeing a naturopath or a functional physician to adddres the nutrition aspect of your healing journey. Each body is different based on genetics and life experience. You deserve have your body understood and your health issues addressed holistically. You deserve to take the time to have your real needs met.

Visceral Manipulation is an excellent modality to help the digestion in the liver, the stomach, the pancreas and all the viscera in the abdominal area. It’s also helful for women’s health issues in the pelvis and also the thoracic region and head too.

If you would like to learn more about Visceral Manipulation, contact the Barral Institute. If you live in the Columbus , Ohio area, contact Sharon Hartnett CST-D to try a session!

Neck and Back Pain Specialist Found!

Releasing Neck and Back Pain

Pain along the spine can arise from many different reasons. Some of these triggers can be serious and some can be helped tremendously with manual therapy. If you are experiencing, for example, problems with your bladder, infection, inflammation, or severe acute pain, go see your physician of course.

Quite often pain can come from misalignment, muscle tension, torsion in the fascial patterning, or overdoing a certain activity which creates tension. If the problem is structural, Craniosacral Therapy can be super helpful.

Craniosacral Therapy is much more of a listening therapy than a deeply aggressive type of bodywork. Have you ever gone for a massage and the pressure hurt and the tissues did not soften? Did you find yourself sore afterwards?

What’s great about Craniosacral Therapy is that, we as therapists. listen to the body tissues and allow them to show us the way into the dysfunctional patterns. There is no forcing, so the body doesn’t have to fight back. It’s much easier to access the tissues in the neck and spine this way for relief.

If you are struggling with neck and/or back pain, check out www.upledger.com. Usually, there is a way to free up the neck and back for more mobility and health. Give yourself an opportunity to move into health with gentle support.

Back Pain Relief: Feel Better in Your Body

by SharonHartnett | Jun 29, 2024 | Craniosacral Therapy, upledger institute

Back Pain

Have you ever had a massage, then gotten up off the table and still had back pain? That’s because it’s often the case that the front absominal area needs to be addressed too. The soft belly in the front!

Massage is focused on muscles. Yet- let’s not forget that there are also organs inside which are extremely important as well. Learning anatomy and how the organs move is essential to releasing all the tension in this cavity. Sometimes the intestines or the kidneys (or other organs) can be stuck, causing less than optimal functioning and contributing to back pain. Relieving tension in the belly almost always helps the back and promote better functioning all around.

Visceral Manipulation, as taught by the Barral Institute has remedied belly and back issues for many of my clients. Listening and supporting proprioceptive communication amonst the viscera turns the body back into support mode. Motion and healthy relationship between the organs nurtures better health.

Visceral Manipulation is not massage, but rather a form of bodywork. There are massage therapists, PT’s, nurses, doctors and other manual therapists who use these techniques. Osteopath Jean-Pierre created this work to move these tools out into the world to help deepen and share the benefits. Check out the Barral Institute for more information.

Sharon Hartnett CST-D has been incorporating Visceral Work into her Craniosacral Work for many years. She has taken the first four levels and the listening classes through the Institute.

Experience Personalized Craniosacral Sessions:Unlock Your Bodies Potential to Heal

by SharonHartnett | Jun 20, 2024 | craniosacral, Craniosacral Therapy

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 long-term health. The Craniosacral Sessions look much different. It’s light touch, yet very powerful.

When You come in for a Craniosacral Session, you stay fully clothed. Most sessions last about an hour. Personally I keep them at 75 minutes. Instead of using lotions and creams, a Craniosacral Therapist listens intently to the person’s Craniosacral Rhythm which is created in the brain, and flows around the nervous systems. The sessions are very quiet unless the person on the table begins to deepen into a cellular memory or feelings. Advanced Cranosacral Therapists are trained to help when this happens. If you are looking for someone Certified, check out www.upledger.com. They are the leading school teaching Craniosacral Therapy.

It’s an experience unlike any you have probably experienced. A whole body melding and transformation occurs. It’s your own Deeper Wisdom emerging and bringing calm and centeredness most often into the session. People often tell me, that it’s the most calm they have felt in a long time.
