Description
Craniosacral therapy is a light touch therapy for the whole body and whole person. It works with both the physical and energetic parts of the body. One of the core principles of craniosacral therapy is that the body will always seek health, and that balancing the nervous system helps clear the path for this process.
During a session, the client will lie down and the practitioner will lightly touch the feet, head, limbs, and spine. The practitioner is often looking to observe the rhythm of the craniosacral fluid (CSF), and notice any blockages that can be supported. Because the approach is systemic, benefits can range from relaxation to reduction in more specific symptoms.
Each participant will receive one 8-10 minute Craniosacral session during the Workshop.
For the remainder of the Workshop each participant will be in supported restorative yoga poses.
Restorative Yoga consists of propping up in long held supportive poses which allows the body to access its parasympathetic nervous system function, which, in turn, helps the body rest, heal, and restore itself to balance.
By allowing time for longer postures, restorative yoga helps elicit the relaxation response. This response can help slow breathing, reduce blood pressure, and produce a feeling of calm and increased well-being.
There is room for 6 participants.
Cost: $40
Monthly Members$35(email to receive discount)
