What is Bio-dynamic Craniosacral Therapy?
A gentle hands-on body centered and client-led therapy that supports the body’s natural goal to find optimal health and postural balance. Bio-dynamic Craniosacral Therapy is characterized by a strong orientation to the wholism of the human experience, where both the body’s anatomy and physiology are related to in real time with the subtle forces of life that act through the interface of the body’s fluids. Subtle movements in the body’s fluid and tissue fields are being listened for and the natural movement towards stillness is seen as deeply healing.
What is the process of treatment?
Your first session will centre around a case history and discussion about why you feel you need Bio-dynamic Craniosacral Therapy.
During the session, you will lie fully clothed on a treatment table and experience the light touch of my hands.
Once on the table we will take some time to ‘settle’, I usually sit at the clients' feet or shoulders when making this first contact.
Through the Bio-dynamic approach, I will then centre around the whole body form thus providing an opportunity for the body to recognise and express inertial patterns. After some time, a distinct pattern tends to arise and I’ll negotiate moving to different parts of your body where I feel drawn to work and listen for natural movement towards stillness.
You may feel a deep sense of relaxation and possibly become aware of heat, tingling, pulsations or other sensations which is seen as deeply healing.
I will check in with you throughout the session, but also encourage you to vocalise anything that comes up.
Anything that happens in a session remains confidential.
