What is Biodynamic Cranial Sacral Therapy?

This is a light touch bodywork done on a massage table with the client fully clothed. A skilled practitioner listens to the pulsations and natural rhythms within the body. The body speaks through its rhythms, micro movements and innate intelligence. Through the practice of holding space and deep listening the practitioner encourages and supports revitalization of the inherent healing potential of the system.

This facilitates the release of resistance patterns, promotes balance in the nervous system and supports acute of chronic dis-ease within the body. This approach uniquely emphasizes the blueprint of the health that is always there and encourages the expression through a practice of remembrance.

Welcoming Babies

The journey from conception to delivery is one of the most remarkable experiences we undertake to enter this world. Along with this journey comes a significant shift in our lives. As families navigate this transformative time, cranial sacral therapy can offer valuable support to both mothers and their babies, facilitating a deep integration surrounded by a nurturing environment. This gentle therapy can aid in the seamless transition of feeding, sleep patterns, and adjusting to new rhythms. In cases where challenges may have arisen during labor or in the postpartum period, cranial work can promote a profound sense of co-regulation and healing as needed.

Mom and baby sessions are designed to be intimate and fully supportive. By providing sessions in the comfort of your own home, I aim to create a space where you and your baby can experience a natural sense of ease and harmony. Through this approach, we help foster a rhythm of co-regulation and balance within your nervous systems. This can be particularly beneficial for addressing issues such as feeding difficulties, sleep disturbances, fussiness, gastrointestinal concerns, hormone imbalances, and overall nervous system harmony.

What does it mean to be connected to the health of your body vs the dysfunction?

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) is a specialized form of craniosacral therapy that focuses on the inherent health and vitality within the body. It incorporates principles from osteopathy and works with the craniosacral system to support the body's self-regulating and self-healing capabilities.

BCST practitioners believe that the body has an inherent intelligence and wisdom that can be accessed and supported through gentle touch and presence. The therapy aims to create a safe and nurturing environment that allows the body's natural healing processes to emerge.

During a BCST session

the practitioner uses subtle touch to listen and engage with the craniosacral system. They observe and follow the subtle rhythmic movements and patterns within the body, including the cranial bones, sacrum, cerebrospinal fluid, and other tissues. By attuning to these rhythms and patterns, the practitioner seeks to facilitate the release of physical and energetic blockages, promote relaxation, and restore balance in the body.

BCST sessions are typically gentle and non-invasive, with the client usually lying fully clothed on a treatment table. The practitioner's role is to provide a supportive presence and facilitate the body's inherent healing processes rather than imposing specific manipulations or techniques.

BCST is often used to address a wide range of physical, emotional, and energetic imbalances. It is believed to help with conditions such as chronic pain, stress-related disorders, trauma, anxiety, headaches, and musculoskeletal issues. It is important to note that BCST is considered a complementary therapy and should not replace conventional medical treatment.

Cranial Sacral Therapy Sessions 

Yoga and craniosacral therapy can complement each other quite well, as they both focus on promoting overall well-being and facilitating mind-body connection. Here are a few ways you can connect yoga and craniosacral therapy:

  • Not everybody is ready to lie down on a table to rest at the beginning of a session Sometimes the body needs to be met first energetically with some gentle movements or self myofascial relelase techniques. This could be anything from cat/cow to a foot release using Myofascial tools.

  • Guided Breathwork or pranayama can help pre the body and nervous system for the subtle body work. It can help to purify our systems, release stress, invite clarity and deeper relaxation into the session. Sometimes this will be done seated or lying down on the table. It take a just 3 minutes of conscious breathing to shift our perspective.

  • Allie has in depth experience and knowledge on relaxation techniques deeply rooted in yoga and nervous system down-regulation. Cranial sessions will include a guided mediation and a technique called yoga nidra bringing us into deeper states of rest, receptivity and relaxation. This has a profound impact on our brainwave rhythm and our ability to drop into a deeper state of conscious rest.

  • Yoga cultivates body awareness, and craniosacral therapy focuses on subtle sensations and the body's innate wisdom. Encourage clients to bring their awareness to their bodies during yoga practice and craniosacral sessions, facilitating a deeper connection and understanding of their physical and energetic states.

  • Using an in-depth understanding and observation of energetic flow states, Allie will listen and guide the session in order to obtain optimal wellness and flow through the fluid system layer with your body. Cranial sacral therapy is a form of bodywork that focuses on the craniosacral system, which includes the bones, tissues, and fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. A skilled therapist can facilitate the release of any restrictions or blockages in the craniosacral system, thereby improving the flow of energy throughout the body.

  • In cranial sacral therapy, integration refers to the process of incorporating and assimilating the changes that occur during a session into the client's overall well-being. After a cranial sacral therapy session, the body may undergo various physiological and energetic shifts.To support integration, a cranial sacral therapist will typically provide guidance and recommendations to the client. This may include suggestions for self-care practices or exercises that can help the body continue to adjust and adapt to the changes initiated during the session. These recommendations can help the client maintain the benefits of the treatment and support the body's natural healing processes.
