CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

Craniosacral Therapy is a subtle but profound form of healing which assists the body’s natural capacity for self-repair. It developed from the work of an American osteopath, Dr. William Sutherland, in the early 1900s. Craniosacral Therapy acknowledges that there is a core of health available to all of us, and the practitioner’s work is dedicated to helping this inherent health reveal itself, making the most of the client’s own resources for change and healing. The resulting increased sense of wellbeing can help with many aspects of life from strengthening the immune system to improving relationships.

Craniosacral Therapy is so gentle that it is suitable for babies, children and the elderly, as well as adults and people in fragile or acutely painful treatment. Some of the conditions successfully worked with include…

• Arthritis • Asthma  
• Back pain • Birth trauma  
• Depression • Digestive problems  
• Exhaustion • Fall or injury  
• Hormonal imbalances • Insomnia  
• Lethargy • Sciatica  
• Sinusitis • Spinal curvatures  
• Tinnitus and middle ear problems • Whiplash injuries  


In a typical session, you will usually lie (or sometimes sit) fully-clothed on a treatment couch. The therapist will make contact by placing their hands lightly on your body and tuning in to what is happening by ‘listening’ with their hands. Contact is very carefully and gently made, so that you feel completely at ease with what is happening.

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 ache and pains, acute and chronic diseases, emotional or psychological disturbances, or simply help to develop wellbeing, health and vitality.

Sometimes the benefits are not immediately noticeable but become obvious on returning to a familiar environment. The work can involve resolution of past events and traumas, and is often profoundly relaxing, moving and/or exhilarating.
