Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy restores balance and alleviates discomfort in the body. It is a unique manual medicine modality that has gained significant recognition for its ability to promote deep relaxation, enhance well-being, alleviate discomfort and pain, and facilitate the body’s natural healing processes.
Biodynamic Craniosacral work is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that focuses on the intrinsic rhythms and patterns of the body, rather than solely treating symptoms. This method was developed by osteopathic physician Franklyn Sills (1), who discovered that by working with the subtle energies and forces within the body, he could effectively address a wide range of health issues.
During a session, you will lie on a comfortable surface, fully clothed, and allow yourself to relax while the practitioner works with your cranial and other subtle energies. This can involve methods that help to:
- Release tensions and stress, calming the nervous system and alleviating feelings of anxiety and
tension.
- Improve fluid movement by working with the subtle energies of the body,
- restoring healthy flow, reducing inflammation and promoting optimal function.
- Stimulate the brain’s natural rhythms, enhancing cognitive function, memory, and creativity, as well as support overall brain health.
This holistic approach is often combined with other modalities, such as soft tissue manipulation or acupuncture, to provide comprehensive care. By addressing the intricate relationships between the cranial, brain, and body, this modality offers a powerful tool for promoting overall health and well-being.
