The focus of my work is Craniosacral therapy.
I also offer a comprehensive 1.5hr bodywork session where I combine Thai floor massage with shiatsu and Craniosacral therapy.
Choosing session length and modality
First Craniosacral session for adult: 1.5hr
Ongoing Craniosacral sessions: 1hr
Thai Floor Massage/ fusion session: 1.5 hr
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, a difficult new diagnosis, symptoms that have been resistant to other treatments, a spiritual crisis, etc.
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. I integrate floor shiatsu and a craniosacral finish at the head and neck for an integrative and holistic session. 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...
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.
To Know Before Your First Appointment
All bodywork is performed through the clothes and without the use of oil or lotion. Please wear loose and comfortable clothing from stretchy non-restrictive materials. Please arrive ten minutes early for your first appointment to complete an intake form.
Five - fifteen minutes of each session is devoted to consultation and an overview of your condition and response to treatment.
