Best Craniosacral Therapy Hayward Near Me

4worldlovers:
THE SCIENCE • CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is light touch bodywork that supports the body’s natural ability to heal. CST is named for the spinal bones from the skull to the sacrum, a flat triangular shaped bone at the base of the spine. The craniosacral system includes the tissues and fluid around the brain and spinal cord that protects and nourishes the central nervous system. Here’s how it helps:

THE CONNECTION • We can all benefit from CranioSacral Therapy to help our bodies stay in balance through the wear and tear of aging and daily life. People with specific pain or dysfunction who prefer a natural healing alternative or who haven’t found a solution from mainstream medicine are great candidates. Here is a partial list of conditions I’ve treated successfully:

BACKGROUND • My admiration for the human body began with a Fine Arts college degree. I began practicing yoga, joined a two-year Yoga teacher training program, and taught Yoga for many years. I gained a deep understanding of how the subtleties of an attentive practice can shift not only the body but also the mind and spirit. When I first experienced CST, it was love at first touch. Sharing the healing benefits of CST and helping clients be at ease within themselves is one of my great joys.

TRAINING • I’m certified in CranioSacral Therapy through The Upledger Institute, where I continue to study and serve as a teaching assistant. I have 1000+ hours of Yoga teacher and advanced practitioner training, as well as 1200+ hours of in depth training in CST and other bodywork modalities. I’m also currently enrolled in the McKinnon Body Therapy Center‘s 500-hour massage certification program.

Our bodies are designed to continually gravitate towards a dynamic state of balance and ease, but sometimes through injury, illness, trauma or misuse we forget where home is, and the functioning of our body becomes compromised. Perhaps you had an injury that didn’t quite heal or you have this nagging sense that something is off, but every doctor and test says you should be fine. Perhaps you’re recovering from trauma and are uncertain how to resolve the myriad of symptoms, or stress is draining your vitality. It is from this place that we begin to question how to regain our well-being. It is here that your journey inward, towards a greater sense of wholeness begins.

Healing is the process of recognizing our own limitations and evolving through them. It is a remarkable journey that invites change, ignites courage and ultimately unburdens the soul so that we may move through the world with an ongoing sense of wholeness, and a deeper sense of purpose. This process permeates the physical, mental and emotional aspects of our being, and provides the guidance for what is needed to rediscover balance, function and ease.

A labyrinth is an ancient symbol that relates to wholeness. It combines the imagery of the circle and the spiral into a meandering but purposeful path. The Labyrinth represents a journey to our own center and back again out into the world.

In my private practice in Rockridge in Oakland I use a combination of modalities to help clients resolve the physical, emotional and spiritual blocks that prevent them from feeling fully alive and healthy. CranioSacral Therapy and SomatoEmotional Release are the foundation of my work, but my sessions also include Visceral Manipulation, energy work, grounding, guided imagery, and dialoguing with the body. I also bring my background in childhood development and Occupational Therapy to treat kids and educate parents.


I believe that your body has all the wisdom it needs to heal itself. My role is to listen to your body and guide you to your own information. You will learn to work with your own symbols and imagery and take home tools that you can use in your every day life to maintain health and promote healing. Through our work together, you will experience freedom from the discomfort and pain that brought you here, and feel more empowered around your own healing and more connected to your amazingly wise body.
