Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
Accessing the inherent healing power of the body with gentle somatic touch. I am excited to offer these two very experiential trainings in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
These courses will grow your skills of Perceptual Awareness, Presence and and understanding of our Three Bodies: physical, fluid and tidal as well as how to access awareness in each field.
Here is a brief article that will help you understand what this beautiful practice is all about:
There are inherent, intelligent and unexplained forces that create and maintain the human body.
Every second, 10 million cells are destroyed in the body, and have to be replaced immediately and precisely, otherwise the body would explode or dissolve. There is no way to predict where the cells will be destroyed. And yet - every minute, our bodies continue to re-produce themselves and we don’t even notice.
When we were formed as embryos, we first existed as fluid dynamics - before genes and neurons, fluid dynamics impeccably shaped our bodies.
What are the mysterious forces that reliably create and sustain life? What goes awry when they no longer function and disease, dysfunction and pain take over?
These are the questions at the heart of the practice of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST). While these mysteries go unexplained by modern science, the founders and innovators in the field of BCST found that there are subtle fluctuations and movements in the body, and that when these movements (which are the expression of the Breath of Life as the Tides, also referred to as the natural biorhythms in and around the body) are augmented by therapeutic listening, patients recovered from a host of conditions.
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle therapeutic approach based on the Osteopathic discovery of micro-movements in the body. Through extensive experimentation, early osteopathic physicians determined that when this motion has full expression, many conditions improve. The name “Craniosacral” specifically indicates the importance of the central structures of the body including cranium, spine and sacrum.
At its start, the work was very manipulative, but later practitioners discovered that less and less intervention was needed in order to make substantial and also dramatic changes, and that creating a supportive environment so that the client’s system generates therapeutic change from within, was actually very effective. This more subtle approach to the work was called “Biodynamic” Craniosacral Therapy.
A skilled biodynamic craniosacral practitioner listens to the subtle pulsations of the system as the body tells its story. The body speaks through its natural biorhythms, micro-movements and especially through its experience-managing patterns of physical shaping. With deep listening the practitioner encourages revitalization of the inherent healing potential of the system, and supports the Breath of Life in the release of resistance patterns. This approach emphasizes hearing the health of the system and encouraging its expression.
Craniosacral Therapy involves gentle hands-on work that honors the client’s own self-healing process. The intention is not to fix problems, but rather to encourage the emergence of new levels of order in mind and body. Practitioners know how to recognize the presence of the Breath of Life in many levels and locations of the body, and use appropriate methods to support and nurture its natural expression.
You may take either class (Cranial Sacral I or II), they do not have to be taken in order.

Ashiatsu massage is a unique form of massage therapy that originates from Asia. The word "ashiatsu" literally means "foot pressure" in Japanese, which is an accurate description of this technique.
During an ashiatsu massage, the therapist uses their feet to apply deep, broad pressure to the client's body. The therapist typically stands on a massage table or stool while holding onto overhead bars for balance and support. They use their feet, heels, and toes to deliver a controlled amount of pressure to different areas of the client's body, including the back, legs, and shoulders.
The therapist can adjust the amount of pressure based on the client's preferences and needs. Ashiatsu massage is known for its ability to provide a deep, therapeutic massage experience. The broad pressure applied by the therapist's feet can reach deeper layers of muscle tissue, helping to release tension, knots, and tightness. This technique is particularly beneficial for individuals who require deep tissue work or have chronic pain or tension. In addition to its therapeutic benefits, ashiatsu massage also offers a sense of relaxation and rejuvenation. The rhythmic movements and fluid strokes of the therapist's feet can induce a deep state of relaxation, reducing stress and promoting overall well-being.
Overall, ashiatsu massage is a unique and effective form of massage therapy that combines deep tissue work with a sense of relaxation. It can be a beneficial treatment option for those seeking relief from muscle tension, chronic pain, or simply looking to relax and unwind.
