CranioSacral “Massage” Therapy
Release Pain & Tension, Rediscover a Sense of Balance, and Experience the Profound, Lasting Relief You Deserve
Whether you can’t seem to let go of anxiety, stress, and tension … are stuck in a cycle of chronic pain that keeps you feeling helpless and stuck … are struggling to recover from an injury … or simply need a reset so you no longer feel exhausted, out of touch, and out of balance, CranioSacral Therapy may be “just what the doctor ordered.”
You may feel you’ve tried just about everything to cope with the issues you’re experiencing – massage therapy, physical therapy, maybe even medications – but nothing has worked, at least not for long.
You’re more than likely wondering whether your body will ever feel comfortable again – ever feel truly yours.
If any of this sounds familiar, I understand.
I’ve been where you are, and I know there is hope.
I know the issues you’re facing are much more than just emotionally and physically draining. They can be debilitating. They can make it difficult to sleep, focus at work, or fully enjoy time with those you love. They can slowly suck all of the joy out of life.
You may find yourself more irritable or anxious, or notice that you’re always “on edge” because your nervous system never seems to settle.
But you don’t have to keep letting pain and stress rule your life. CranioSacral Therapy can offer the effective pain relief and transformative experience you’re looking for.
How CranioSacral Therapy Can Help
While many people may think of CranioSacral Therapy is a form of “massage” therapy, it’s not.
CranioSacral Therapy offers a gentle, yet profoundly effective modality to help your body unwind old patterns of restriction and encourage deep healing from within.
The body’s homeostatic state involves a pulse which cycles 4 to 6 times a minute, folding our shoulders and hips and legs in, and then out.
When there’s an imbalance in our bodies’ natural rhythm, this homeostasis is interrupted.
Using touch that’s no more than the weight of a dime, CranioSacral Therapy allows people to reclaim this homeostasis by tapping into one’s own natural healing process.
Nothing we do together is ever against the grain, as it would be in a typical massage, so there’s no pain.
In fact, I’m really just following your body’s tiny motions to help you achieve that homeostasis.
This deeply relaxing therapy can support your healing by helping you:
Release chronic tension in your head, neck, jaw, and spine
Reduce the frequency and severity of headaches or migraines
Alleviate feelings of overwhelm in your nervous system and activate your body’s rest-and-digest response
Support better alignment, posture, and natural patterns of movement
Improve your quality of sleep
Restore emotional balance by helping your body process and let go of anxiety, stress, and tension
When we allow the body’s natural healing mechanisms to reawaken, we can move beyond lingering tensions and chronic pain – into a state of greater ease, balance, and resilience.
And by working directly with the nervous system, fascia, and subtle rhythms of the body, Craniosacral Therapy creates space for profound, lasting change without discomfort or strain.
This is why so many of my clients have found CranioSacral Therapy to provide the relief they’ve been unable to achieve through other treatment techniques.
And it’s also why so many clients have been surprised by how much lighter they feel at the end of a session – like they’re literally floating as they walk out the door! That’s what we’re looking for. And that’s the type of work that I do.
Can CranioSacral Therapy Really Help You?
As a certified CranioSacral Therapy practitioner and bodywork therapist who’s trained with John Upledger, I bring four decades of experience in both hands-on therapy and somatic education.
My approach is grounded in respect for your body’s wisdom and a commitment to creating a safe, supportive environment in which you can fully relax and heal.
More than this, I’ve been where you are – and I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel to search for real relief.
I developed Crohn’s Disease in my teen years that led me on a lifelong journey of healing. After trying more modalities than I can count, I’ve found the most successful hands-on experience to be an integration of Aston-Patterning® and CranioSacral Therapy.
This experience is what has inspired me to help others feel as light and easy as I did when I got off a practitioner’s table.
Of course, we’re all unique human beings, and we all heal in different ways.
This is why I integrate my training in CranioSacral Therapy and Aston-Patterning to tailor every session to your unique needs.
Whether you’ve been living with headaches for years, feel stuck in a cycle of stress, or simply want to feel more at home in your body, I’m here to make sure you feel seen, heard, and cared for in a way you haven’t experienced elsewhere as I support you with compassion and skill.
If you’re ready to let go of whatever’s holding you back, move through your day without the constant tightness or pain – able to breathe more fully, sleep more deeply, and enjoy the things you love most – I encourage you to contact me, ask any questions you have, and schedule a bodywork session today.
I look forward to speaking with you and helping you release pain and tension, rediscover a sense of balance, and experience the profound, lasting relief you deserve.
