Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy is an intelligent, yet discriminating gentle approach which utilizes the human body’s natural ability to heal itself. Through negotiated connection light touch is used while our therapists offer support to encourage your natural, fluid systems to reestablish balance physically, mentally, and emotionally. CST is very gentle and appropriate for a wide variety of patients of any age and mothers receiving pre and postnatal treatments can accelerate the healing process for both themselves and their babies. Treatment can help relieve many different symptoms including pain, fatigue, stress and related difficulties.
The “Health” spectrum includes improving overall physical, mental, and emotional well being and Craniosacral Therapy touches into all these areas. Experiences that are too overwhelming to cope with (ie. from trauma) can remain in our systems essentially locking your body in flight, flight, freeze or fawn states. The long term effects of this unresolved overwhelm can include feelings of high stress, irritation, hyper-vigilance, and insomnia, which can then lead to disease and illness. The work Dawn does with Biodynamic Craniosacral works particularly well at gently facilitating your body and your brain to resolve held experiences without the need to revisit the original traumatic incident.
The work Devan does with SomatoEmotional Craniosacral Therapy can also be quite effective at helping to surface buried emotions and trauma that could be affecting tissue function and creating pain, dysfunction, imbalance and blocked progress. Using SomatoEmotional Cranio techniques, Devan also pulls from and utilizes knowledge learned in polyvagal regulation training, trauma-informed training, a year of training in relational somatic therapy, and a year of shamanic healing training.
