About biodynamic craniosacral therapy

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) is a body-based therapy that uses light touch to listen and respond to subtle rhythms in the body’s tissue, fluid and energy fields. The rhythms show us where there is unresolved stress, resistance and restriction. This approach understands that human beings function as a whole and that mind, body, and spirit are interrelated in health and disease. BCST helps to align the client with their inherent health and facilitate a natural healing process and can help to improve symptoms of stress, trauma, and emotional pain. BCST draws from osteopathy, embryology, indigenous healing practices and modern neuroscience.

“Healing is the emergence of originality… The breath of life comes into the body. We can sense various rhythms that are created from it, and we can perceive that process taking place. We’re not interpolating it. We’re not analyzing it. We can actually perceive the breath of life come into the body, come into the midline, and from the midline generate different forms of rhythms in the bioelectric field, fluids, and tissue. Essentially what’s happening is genesis. It never stops. Moment to moment, we are building new form and function. One senses this directly.”
