About Me

CranioSacral Therapy in Tampere, Finland

Lauri Saarnio is a certified CranioSacral Therapist (CST-T) with a practice at Hämeenkatu 29 A 1, in downtown Tampere, Finland. Through his practice, Kranio Saarnio, he offers gentle, hands-on craniosacral therapy for adults and children.

CranioSacral Therapy is a light-touch approach that works with the craniosacral system and the nervous system. Many clients describe their sessions as deeply calming, and some say it helps them unwind from long-term stress and from feeling constantly "on". The therapy may support the body's own ability to relax and recover.

Lauri has completed advanced Upledger training, including SomatoEmotional Release, The Brain Speaks and Beyond the Cranial Base, as well as CranioSacral Therapy for Pediatrics. He also works as a teaching assistant on Upledger courses. Alongside CranioSacral Therapy, he uses visceral fascial techniques and nervous system-focused bodywork, and he is a certified body coach (Oloni).

Lauri works with clients of all ages and sees many children and families. Clients come to Tampere from all over Finland, some travelling as far as 300 km. He also sees clients in Rauma and other cities from time to time.

Sessions are available in English and Finnish.
