Release the Pain

Craniosacral Therapy

Is there a nagging ache, pain, or injury that has been calling for healing?

Although Craniosacral Therapy (CST) refers to your head and sacrum, it is an amazing and deep way to unwind tension, scar tissue, adhesions and injuries anywhere in your body. 
​
I work with tight necks and aching shoulders. I work with headaches and concussions. I help people with knee injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, vertigo, tinnitus, spinal misalignment, pain or degeneration. I talk to fibroids in your uterus, twisted fallopian tubes, and aching low backs. I negotiate with revved up cortisol levels and high stress states in your nervous system...

​...all through my hands, through your connective tissue which is woven throughout your body and around every bone, muscle, organ and nerve, as well as the delicate connective tissues that surround your brain and spinal cord, just beneath the surface of your skull bones and vertebrae.

Has your body been calling out to you with symptoms of pain, tension, interrupted sleep, injury, headaches...or other nagging aches and pains you were hoping were going to just 'go away'?

Are you tight and wish you could just feel relaxed inside your own body?


Picture
Do you have an injury that you need to stop ignoring, or that physio or other treatments hasn't resolved?
​

Are you tired and stressed out, but you can't seem to hit the 'STOP!' button on your busy, overburdened mind, and your relentless 'to do' list?
What if you could reset to 'CALM'?

​

Picture
Do you wake-up in the morning aching or full of chronic inflammation?
​

Picture
Is there a history of dementia or alzheimers in your family are wondering what you can do to prevent in yourself?

Picture
Are you ready to commit some time to yourself to heal and unwind?

Do you have insurance coverage for Naturopathy? I can give you a receipt as a Quebec ND. Check how much coverage your plan has.
Thanks for your help yesterday. My knee feels very different. Not perfect yet, but much easier movement. It feels like it's reconfigured.

Never had a CST treatment before?
​What does it feel like?

CST is a gentle hands on bodywork technique. My touch is light, but the tissue releases are deep...and permanent. I work through your clothing, and there is nothing special you need to wear...whatever is comfortable for you.

When you come in for your treatment, we will sit down for a moment so you can share with me what you would love help with. I may ask you a few things about your health history: any injuries, surgeries, concussions, car accidents? With CST, I aim to get to the root of how those injuries and aches got into your body in the first place so we can release the trauma and injury at its origin.

Then I will have you relax, fully clothed on my comfy massage table. First, lightly holding your feet or head, I will tune in to your Craniosacral Rhythm (CSR). That's a biological rhythm in your body that can be felt just like your heartbeat and your breathing.

​ It is the movement of your cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the membranes that surround your brain and spinal cord. Since those central membranes are continuous with all the connective tissue in your body, I can feel your CSR from anywhere on your body. This guides me to where the tension and adhesions are that we need to zero in on first. 

Next I will go to the spot in your body my assessment guided me to, and slide one hand under your body. I go under the sheet that you are laying on, so it's very easy. My other hand normally goes on top of your body. I begin to apply very subtle pressure to your tissues so they can unlock and begin to unwind and take a new shape...a less tense, strained shape!

All connective tissue in your body leads to...the connective tissue around your brain and spinal cord...that is your central nervous system. This means as your tissues begin to release...so does your stress! You might fall asleep, or drift into a very deep relaxation. That's right...gain without pain, or invasive poke-and-prod procedures. ​

This short 5 minute video by Tan Waneveer, one of the most experienced teachers of CST for the Upledger Institute which teaches courses worldwide, shows you how CST releases restrictions.
During a treatments, as your tissues begin to unwind, I may pick up an arm, or leg and support it in my hands so it can find the position it needs to more easily and completely release. You will really start to feel your tissues working themselves out. We CST practitioners call this 'regional tissue unwinding'.

Do you have more questions, or want to know if CST is the right treatment for your pain challenge? Email me here and I can give you my honest opinion. I've been doing this work for 25 years...so my hands are pretty darn smart. You will be surprised at how much I can pick up and track inside your body.

"BeCalm Balls" are a Craniosacral technique to put you into a "still point" where your nervous system and tight tissues get a deep rest.

​During your treatment I will induce still points for you with my hands.

The signature book on Craniosacral Therapy by it's founder Dr. John Upledger, tells the story of his discovery of the Craniosacral System and how to work with it to address dysfunction in the body and central nervous system.

​If you shy away from invasive or strong adjustments, you will love the way CST respects the wisdom in your body.

​​Every treatment with me takes full advantage of my:
  • ability to read your energy as an Energy Healer.
  • 25 years of practice in Craniosacral therapy.
  • knowledge of chakras and the multiple dimensions of your energy field.
  • immersion in classical Chinese Medicine and the accupuncture meridians from my Plant Spirit Medicine training and practice
  • my 5 years of training in Somatic Experiencing trauma resolution work.
  • my education as a Family Constellations facilitator to identify and resolve transgenerational trauma blocks.

So although Craniosacral Therapy is focused on the subtle bio-mechanics of the body, you receive the added benefit of all my disciplines and abilities.

You may find me checking your acupuncture meridians, clearing one of the chakras that are feeding an area of your physical body, or reading how your physical pain/injury process has to do with a larger teaching unfolding in your life right now.

Did you know...

If we work online together, we can still apply the principles of CST to help you unwind your own body. 

In the advanced levels of training for CST, I learned to help you connect with the 'inner wisdom' of your own body and to work with dialogue and imagery to engage your own body tissues and create transformation from the inside out.
