​The body is a dynamic, communicative, intelligent and resilient home for our consciousness. Forces within the body continuously transmute our trauma and restore our wholeness. However, usually we are too busy to hear our own "inner physician." As a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist, I love helping to guide people into the quiet & coherency that underlies our daily life experience. As our nervous systems relax and settle into a centered place, we become aware of our innate healing and thriving ability that guides us to embody our wholeness. I also offer Nervous System Regulation: specific facilitation for gently releasing trauma and restoring equilibrium to psycho-emotional states, which corrects imbalances such as anxiety and depression. 

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) 

What is Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy?
BCST is a gentle yet powerful, hands-on therapeutic bodywork modality. It works with the body's own inherent intelligence & self-healing capacities to calm, relax & restore all body systems. The practitioner is trained to listen to the health within the body's tissues, fluids, fascia, bones & cerebrospinal fluid, manifesting as various cyclic rhythms. Focusing on the health within the body-- rather than the disease or illness--catalyzes deep relaxation, re-alignment & restoration on all levels.

What can I expect during a session?
A typical BCST session lasts 60-75 minutes, including debriefing time. The client lies on a massage table and is fully clothed. Before the session, the client has an opportunity to explain current conditions, symptoms, injuries, and so on that he/she would like to address. A light, gentle touch is used throughout the session. Although "Craniosacral" may imply that only the cranium and sacrum are involved, BCST engages the entire body. Common areas for the practitioner to palpate include feet, knees, sacrum, spine, respiratory diaphragm, heart, organs, shoulders, neck and head. Areas in need of specific attention due to the unique conditions of the client are emphasized.

Rates:
In-person or Online session: $108
Sliding Scale: $60-108 

Newborn babies session: $40
