What is Craniosacral Therapy?

Craniosacral Therapy is a unique, holistic treatment that helps your body’s natural healing processes. It focuses on the craniosacral system, which includes the membranes and fluid surrounding and protecting the brain and spinal cord. 

​

This system plays a vital role in maintaining the environment where your central nervous system functions, impacting overall health and wellbeing. By working with this system, Craniosacral Therapy promotes balance throughout your entire body.

​

This system plays a vital role in maintaining the environment where your central nervous system functions, impacting overall health and wellbeing. By working with this system, Craniosacral Therapy promotes balance throughout your entire body.
 

How Does it Work?

During a Craniosacral Therapy session, the therapist uses gentle touch to assess and release restrictions in the craniosacral system. This allows the body to relax deeply, facilitating the reorganisation of tissues and promoting healthy change. 

 

The therapy is performed while the client lies fully clothed on a massage table, creating a safe and comfortable space for healing.

What Are the Benefits of Craniosacral Therapy?

Deep Relaxation and Stress Relief
Craniosacral Therapy encourages your body to enter a state of deep relaxation. By calming the nervous system, it helps reduce the levels of stress hormones in your body, promoting a sense of calm and peace. 

​

Improved Mental Clarity and Emotional Stability
The therapy works on the central nervous system, which plays a crucial role in your mental and emotional health. This can help you manage everyday stressors more effectively and improve your ability to focus and make decisions.

​

Enhanced Resilience and Energy Levels
Regular sessions of Craniosacral Therapy can boost your resilience to physical and emotional stress. By facilitating the body's natural healing processes, it enhances your energy levels, leaving you feeling more vibrant and capable of handling life's challenges.

​

Reduction or Elimination of Pain and Discomfort
Craniosacral Therapy targets the root causes of pain and discomfort rather than just the symptoms. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, injuries, or trauma, this therapy can help reduce or even eliminate your pain by addressing the underlying issues and promoting healing from within.

​

Better Sleep and Overall Sense of Wellbeing
Quality sleep is essential for overall health, and Craniosacral Therapy can help improve your cosleep patterns. By reducing stress and promoting relaxation, it enables your body to rest more deeply.

Karen is such a wonderful and supportive person and I know that I feel better and I am a better person because of the treatment Karen has provided."

​

Karen Finn: “Karen is an authentic, passionate and gentle therapist who creates a calming and supportive environment during BCST sessions. This enabled access to my unacknowledged emotions and stress which facilitated a deep healing during and after each session. An amazing experience and along with her Herbal Medicine I am symptom and medication free and full of joie de vivre

​

Pauline: "After getting nowhere with doctors over the past 10 years, I found Karen... She assessed me thoroughly - in the true sense of holistic - and first sent me home equipped with detox remedies followed by a series of herbal medicines and mineral supplements to replenish what my body lacked but desperately needed. Nothing like any other treatment I've experienced... I cannot thank Karen enough and highly recommend her, particularly if traditional doctors are failing you."
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens in a session?
I first take a full history, including the reasons you came to Craniosacral Therapy and what you'd like to change. With younger children, I often work with them while they play, or they may sit with a parent and read.

​

How long is a session?
An initial consultation involves taking a full history and lasts one and a half hours for adults. Subsequent sessions are up to an hour. For children under 16, initial sessions are an hour, and subsequent sessions are up to half an hour.

​

How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on your concerns. Some people need only a couple of sessions, while others, especially those with trauma, may need regular treatment for a while. Many find ongoing sessions restorative and supportive in reaching their goals.
