CranioSacral Therapy (CST)
Gentle pressure is applied to key points on the body, from head to toe, to help free the body of deep fascial (connective tissue) restrictions around the brain and spinal column. These Chronic tensions lead to many common health issues. CST takes you to a space between awake and asleep, accompanied by profound relaxation. In this healing space the body effortlessly releases old, stored memories and traumas trapped in the body’s systems. As with all bodywork therapies, several sessions may be required to get at the root of deeper issues. If needed, this therapy come with an additional component: Somato-Emotional Release (SER).

Somato-Emotional Release (SER)
Unprocessed trauma, physical, mental, or emotional, can be ‘walled off’ by the body, creating “Energy Cysts” ( a term coined by Dr. John Upledger, Osteopath, and Dr. Zvi Karni, Biophysicist). These embedded, tangles of energy syphon the body of precious energy required for proper healing and maintenance. Sometimes during CST, or any other form of bodywork, the body may feel safe and relaxed enough to release these energy cysts. In turn, this may or may not trigger a memory, increased emotion, or sense of release and relief in the client. The body may return to the position it was in at the moment it received old trauma. As your SER therapist I hold safe space for you during this healing experience and, if appropriate, dialogue with you, provide gentle, guided meditation through the process, or simply hold space till the energy cyst has cleared.

Pediatric CranioSacral Therapy
3 months to 12 yrs old
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) for infants and young children is a gentle hands-on touch to help balance the central nervous system, improve lymphatic and blood circulation, and reduce tensions in the soft body’s systems from birth and/or trauma that expresses as elevated fears, anxiety, ADHD, digestive issues, or sleep disorders that obstruct their quality life. The parent(s) is also welcome to stand in as a surrogate to receive CST for their child, if needed. A surrogate approach is beneficial for the child who can’t sit still long enough to receive therapy, or is unable to be present for a session. (30 min. session maximum)

IntraOral CranioSacral Therapy
A gentle technique, using a gloved hand, to measure and balance the subtle movements of the inner mouth. Restrictions in the connective tissues around and within the upper palate, teeth, mandible and cranial plates are released. This therapy is added after a full body CranioSacral application to help the body fully integrate the changes. A wonderful adjunct therapy for releasing jaw tension, headaches, teeth grinding, physical and/or emotional trauma stored in the soft tissues.

Sounding Healing via Acutonics® Tuning Forks
Acutonics® tuning forks of varying harmonics are applied to the body’s acupuncture points, tense muscles, scar tissue, and in the auric field to gently, and deeply harmonize the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies for optimal health. Often times this therapy is combined with my other healing therapies to address the body at the finer, energetic levels.

Usui Ryoho Reiki, and Quantum Touch®
Two potent energy healing modalities utilizing gentle breathwork, and hands-on touch allowing a flow of “free energy” to the client. Directed by the innate wisdom of the recipient’s body, healing energy naturally goes where it’s most needed. My role is to hold space and be a clear conduit. These energy therapies are very relaxing, reduce pain, and anxiety. Like CranioSacral Therapy, Reiki and Quantum Touch®, can be applied to the client who wants relaxation and stress-relief without massage, or who suffer with chronic, debilitating disease. These therapies can also be employed in a hospice setting if needed.

Relaxation Massage
Specifically focuses on releasing pented-up muscular stress, improving blood / lymphatic circulation, improving joint range of motion, easing blood pressure, and increasing recovery rate of non-acute injuries. Relaxation massage promotes rest, recovery, healthy skin tone, and calms the mind.

Additional Tools May Include:

Massage Cupping– silicone cup applied to oiled skin and continuously moved. The gentle vacuum releases connective tissue adhesions, reduces scars, and improves circulation.

Essential Oils– If you are allergic to any oils please advise in advance. Used for clearing sinus congestion, lifting depressed mood, sedating anxiety, warming or cooling tissues as needed.
