In a typical CranioSacral session I will make contact by placing my hands lightly on your body and tuning in to what is happening by ‘listening’ with my hands. Contact is made carefully so that you will feel at ease with your body. (Please wear comfortable clothes)

The first thing you will probably notice is a sense of deep relaxation, which will generally last throughout the session. With subsequent treatments this release of tension often extends into everyday life. The work can address physical aches and pains, acute and chronic disease, emotional or psychological issues. It helps to develop a greater sense of well-being and vitality.

Some of the conditions successfully worked with are:

Arthritis, Asthma, Autism, Back pain, Birth trauma, Bronchitis, Cerebral Palsy, Colic, Depression, Digestive problems, Drug withdrawal, Dyslexia, Exhaustion, Fall or injury, Frozen shoulder, Hormonal imbalances, Hyperactivity, Immune system disorders, Insomnia, Lethargy, Menstrual pain, PMS, Migraine, Post-operative conditions, Problems during and after pregnancy, Re-integration after accidents, Sciatica, Sinusitis, Spinal curvatures, Sports injuries, Stress related illnesses, Tinnitus and middle ear problems, TMJ (jaw) disorders, Visual disturbances, Whiplash injuries

One of craniosacral therapy's most appreciated qualities is its capacity to rapidly resolve problems babies have; these include colic, sucking difficulties, sleep problems andbehavioural issues. These are often due to the compression the baby undergoes during birth. Parents are frequently relieved and amazed by the seemingly miraculous improvements resulting from cranial work, often in just one or two session

Caesarean births and those involving forceps or suction are more likely to lead to symptoms. These are often immediately obvious but sometimes don’t develop until later on. CranioSacral Therapy can be beneficial to all babies including those from problem-free births even when there are no apparent symptoms.

Babies can't speak but that doesn't mean you can't communicate with them. Parents often understand a baby's non-verbal communication. The therapist's appreciation of what things are like for babies and interacting with them using craniosacral therapy plays a big part in making the treatment effective. CST is effective for a wide range of conditions in children and adolescents as well. Sometimes parents bring their child for a ‘tune-up’ to help them feel better overall and to focus on any minor issues. Childhood and adolescent conditions which have responded well to craniosacral therapy include: Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD/ADD), autism, teeth and jaw mis-alignment, adolescent withdrawal, fears and phobias, bed-wetting and asthma.

Depression, migraine, sinusitis, spinal and pelvic pain and some psychological conditions are among the issues that can sometimes be traced back to what happened at birth. As well as helping current symptoms, treatment of young children can be helpful in preventing issues arising later in life. Health problems in adults which are linked to their birth or very early experience can be resolved retrospectively.

To bring about real and lasting self-healing it is necessary to treat the cause of illness rather than just the symptoms. With a vision way-ahead we understand that the true cause of illness and disease lies in the personality-in the mental and emotional patterns through which we view ourselves and the world around us.
