If you are seeking Craniosacral therapy, your first session will need to be 1.5 hr to allow for a thorough intake process.
Subsequent sessions are around 1hr.
This work is very deep and most of the time I find that about 50 minutes of it is the optimal time per session. The releasing and integration will continue well after.
This might be the choice for you if you are ready to go deep in addressing a physical or emotional health concern, whether chronic or acute, seeking to reverse the effects of prolonged or recent stress, a difficult new diagnosis, symptoms that have been resistant to other treatments, a spiritual crisis, etc.
Shiatsu massage can be received on its own or combined with Craniosacral therapy. This is a very potent modality able to facilitate restoration and deep relaxation. Many of the benefits are similar to the Thai massage described below, but with less stretching and more acupressure. Shiatsu and Craniosacral therapy are also very complimentary and can be combined in some instances. Please contact me with questions.
Receiving a Thai floor massage session is an excellent way to open the joints, stretch the muscles and tendons, tone the internal organs, and overall improve energy flow and balance. Steamed herbal packs are incorporated, to read more about them please visit the 'about' page. I can finish the session with a craniosacral release for the head and neck for an additional layer of deep restoration. The effects of this session are deep rejuvenation, relaxation, and overall increase in physical and mental well-being. Excellent for anyone who uses their body a lot, such as athletes, dancers, bodyworkers, martial artists, people working in the trades etc... Or, on the other hand, people that sit and/or drive for work a lot can benefit from this modality's dynamic way of moving the body. Not the modality to choose for people with extreme limitations to their range of motion, pregnant women, or in the early phases of recovery from injury or surgery. Please contact me with any questions.
Sessions for Children
Craniosacral therapy can be of great benefit to children and teens. Young humans, especially those with non-typical neurology (on the Autism spectrum), those that experienced a traumatic birth, have endured prolonged stress, falls, injuries, surgeries, or emotional trauma, can receive many healing benefits from this gentle and safe modality.
Depending on age, sessions for children can be 30, 45, or 60 minutes. The accompanying parent is, of course, welcome to stay in the treatment room with the child. Being the intuitive beings that they are, children often happily welcome the treatments after the initial introduction period.
I am happy to answer any questions regarding the possibility of this modality being of benefit to your child.
