Restrictions cause discomfort and pain. Accidents, illnesses, trauma, shock, abuse, anxiety, pregnancy and birth, aging -- all these can create restrictions in our systems leaving us with everything from a feeling of just being “off” to deep chronic pain.

With Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, restrictions in the membranes around the brain and spinal cord are released, as well as restrictions on other levels, opening the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and allowing the central nervous system and the entire body and spirit to move into new levels of health and wellness.

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is helpful at all stages of life, from week-old newborns experiencing birth trauma and latching difficulties to 95 year-olds finding new ways to relate to their changing bodies. Infants integrate into this world with more ease and safety, toddlers release shock and deep fears, and adults process and release anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, head injuries, surgical trauma, post-partum physical and emotional states, injuries from car accidents and other trauma, and grief (to name just a few).
