CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
Craniosacral therapy is a gently form of bodywork that utilizes the fluids surrounding the brain and central nervous system. Our body has exquisite wisdom to adapt during times of stress and trauma. During a session we work with the body’s natural healing mechanisms and inner wisdom to bring balance and health into the system. Using light touch we work with the fascia, the bones, the nervous system and the fluid rhythms of the body to release tension patterns and create more space and openness.
Session may include some bodywork through the clothes and can be combined with massage.

Since babies and children's systems are still growing and forming, Craniosacral can be a very effective. Birth is an amazing process, but can be a lot for the newborn. Craniosacral can help calm the nervous system and integrate the birth experience. Craniosacral can be beneficial for the growing child as well.
