The CranioSacral system consists of the membranes and fluid protecting the brain and spinal cord. It extends from the bones of the skull (cranium) down to the sacrum. The rhythmic movement of cerebrospinal fluids within this membrane regulates overall health.
Many illnesses begin as restrictions in the CranioSacral system. Balancing the CranioSacral rhythm enhances physical and emotional harmony and health. Cerebrospinal fluid is also a conductor of nerve energy throughout the body, and is integral to proper nerve function.
CranioSacral Therapy uses gentle specific hand placements on the head and body, to unwind restrictions and balance the cranial bones. This promotes deep relaxation, unrestricted breathing, healthier circulation, glandular balance, and alignment of subtle structures within the brain and spinal cord.
Stress and trauma collect in the body over a lifetime, finally manifesting as chronic problems like headaches, depression, addiction, and relentless pain. Memories etched deep in the brain and nervous system can be felt as disruption in the energy body, and thus therapeutically reversed.
SomatoEmotional Release synchronizes the vital energies underlying both health and disease: the CranioSacral system, Chakra system, fascia, organs, and meridians. As restrictions soften and open, trauma is released at the cellular level, and energy flow restored.
The CranioSacral membrane is the physical container for the Sushumna, the central yogic energy channel, so this work directly bridges matter and Spirit. During a session, one may experience physical sensations, memories, and emotions as they surface for release, or just fall into a peacefull sleep.

Heart Centered Therapy is a gentle approach to spiritual-emotional healing, that uses dialog and imagery to transform unresolved emotional pain as it is stored and expressed in the body. This healing involves not only the individual, but also the family lineage and collective unconscious. In the process, one directly experiences the sacred interconnectedness of all existence, and is reunited with the voice of their own Soul.
