 Recently a client asked me if it was OK to ask what I was feeling when I was sharing a Craniosacral Therapy session with her. A comment often made by those new to Craniosacral Therapy is that they don’t feel me doing anything. In the quiet moments of a Craniosacral Therapy session there are so many subtle things going on throughout your being. I become quiet and close my eyes to limit the senses I am engaging, so that I can gain a better sense through touch.

 One of the main focuses of a Craniosacral Therapy session is to encourage your Nervous System to relax, so that your body can reset. When your Nervous System shifts from the sympathetic (fight or flight) to parasympathetic (rest and digest) function, the healing begins, on all levels. Allowing yourself to surrender and let go isn’t easy for some. It requires your confidence and trust in both me, and in yourself. Trust that I am a safe person to completely relax with, and that I have the skills and training to provide your session.
Having completed Massage Therapy training 29 years ago, I continue to be fascinated by the human body and its uniqueness to each individual. It is always amazing to witness just how capable the body is of healing naturally, and the results that clients experience.
While I’ve also practiced Craniosacral Therapy for 29 years, the past 5 years, plus more recent and ongoing advanced training, have shown me how much more clients can experience in their wellness journeys. How do I know? Client feedback and results.  There is A LOT going on in the world right now. It often feels overwhelming. Even for those not watching the news, there is an energy of fear and anxiety that is palpable. If you’re at all empathic then you are likely feeling the impact of that energy to a really uncomfortable degree.
 There have been so many positive outcomes for clients in recent months when Craniosacral Therapy has been a part of, or all of their session.
"Never stop learning because life never stops teaching" was a quote often shared by one of the instructors when I was studying Massage Therapy. She was right, and her words have had such an impact on me through my years as a Holistic Practitioner.  During the last day of instruction of the Level 1 Advanced Craniosacral Therapy training that I’m currently taking, I had an “a ha” moment. I realized that what I was learning was bringing together all that I’ve learned, practiced, understood and taught in the holistic health field through the past 34 years. A moment when all of my understandings and beliefs clicked, made sense and pointed to the path forward in what I do. It's a little overwhelming and difficult to put into words, but I will try.
As many clients know I have begun a series of classes to upgrade my Craniosacral Skills. That means that sessions are changing as my skills grow through the early months of 2025. What it also means is that you will gain more from your sessions with me. While there will be more changes to sessions in the coming months, at this point here are some of the changes that you may notice during your Craniosacral sessions:
 Healing Can Happen Through Relaxation
The comment I hear most often from clients, at the end of a Craniosacral Therapy session or Reiki session, is that they have never before felt so deeply and completely relaxed. There is something in the quiet of those two Holistic therapies that nurtures you, mind, body and soul. Mindfulness
