Bio-Dynamic Cranio-Sacral Therapy (BCST)
Deriving from Osteopathy, Biodynamic Craniosacral therapy is a subtle and profound healing modality. It is a gentle, relational, hands-on therapy- yet highly effective, working directly with the body’s natural capacity for self-repair and nervous system regulation.
There is no manipulation of tissues, rather a tuning into the deeper fluid, rhythmic motions of a client’s system. Practitioners work mindfully with the whole of a person’s being, listening to the health available and working within the client’s capacity. You will remain fully clothed, lying on a couch. If lying is difficult, alternative ways of treatment can be arranged. Hands will be placed on different areas of the body and there may be some dialogue between practitioner and client either before, during or after session.
Cranio Sacral Therapy can address:
- Physical aches and pains *Structural change
- Acute and chronic disease * Emotional or Psychological disturbances
- Trauma related conditions * Strengthening of the immune system
- The development of well-being and interpersonal relationships
The number of sessions required wholly depends on the individual. BCST is not a quick fix, rather a journey taken together to restore the body back to natural health with no steps missed along the way. Therefore, the client has learnt how to heal themselves, which results in ever-lasting changes.
