I'm happy you have made your way to my website. ; )
I began with & have been taking courses in Craniosacral therapy with the Upledger Institute since 1991.
Prior to that, I trained in therapeutic massage & have skill-sets in this therapy since 1984...
I have kept up with Teach Assisting with the Upledger Inst.for 34 years...
Teach assisting classes keeps a person up on any changes within the institute & freshens one's skills... ; )
Since 1991, I have taken the core Craniosacral courses up through the two Somato Emotional Release I & II courses & up through two levels of the Advanced Trainings.
My two Advanced CST courses were taken with Dr John Upledger in Florida... back in the day, when he was with us and teaching... ; ) Nice memories
Most of my training with the Institute, has been up the Craniosacral Therapy path, and includes :
Craniosacral Therapy for Pediatrics, Craniosacral Applications for Conception,
Pregnancy and Birthing, Craniosacral Therapy EcoSomatics Small Animals,
Healing From the Core: Grounding and Healthy Boundaries; The Brain Speaks 1,
Craniosacral Therapy and the Immune Response, a Craniosacral Dissection course
& Somato Emotional Release Technique: Mastering the Inner Physician (SERTIP).
Also, I attended every Symposium Dr John taught, where he treated clients live, in front of us, teaching us what he would do, in the moment.
I have trained in a Distance healing Craniosacral course and am successfully offering sessions via zoom. I have found these distance sessions to be very effective to the receiver. ; )
I am a Certified Study Group Leader, a Certified Teach Assistant and have completed my Techniques Certification.

I took another class with Fritz Smith, reviewing his Zero Balancing 1 class a second time, as I'd wanted to touch in again with him in the 90's phase of his life...
My sessions will guide you to a deep space of Peace and a quieting of your mind. Very relaxing and de-stressing in a safe and quiet setting.
Many times when people have headaches or have had falls or injuries to the body, Craniosacral therapy can assist to gently bring the cranial & sacrum bones back into subtle movement & can free up the cranial base musculature and tensions in the low back. Through regional tissue release, trauma memory < ie injuries and falls> can be guided out of the body.
It seems with the stress of these days, that alot of clients are clenching or grinding their teeth.
Craniosacral therapy can help get the cranial bones moving again and can free up this pattern.
