Craniosacral Therapy for Adults

What is Craniosacral Therapy?

Craniosacral therapy is a ‘light touch’ treatment, without massage or anatomical manipulation. The practitioner listens to the subtle changes beneath their hands - restrictions, releases, changes in breathing.

The essence of the work is that the blueprint for health and balance is already within each individual. The role of the practitioner is to bring the client’s awareness of this into place, so that their own tissues can make the subtle adjustments needed for balance.

The treatment takes place clothed, only shoes, tight belts, necklaces or large earrings need to be removed.

There is no set ‘routine’ to this treatment, and the practitioner will be guided by what feels right for the client.

This treatment is safe and unintrusive. So safe in fact that it is most well known for how it can help settle babies and young children who may have had difficult births. Kate Leftley works with Mothers and Babies at Moon.

What will happen in your session?

The session will be guided by you. Although there will be a few questions about your medical history, the focus in a first session will be to encourage you to access deep relaxation, and a sense of feeling safe.

From that place, you’ll begin to explore – and build on – being able to find that place with greater ease and consistency. In effect, you will be working with the physiology of what happens in stress, or, really, helping the felt sense of what happens when stress is released, de-stressed, let go off.

And how might you feel afterwards?

If possible, try not to immediately race back into busy activity. A lot goes on in a session, even though it might just feel like you have simply ‘relaxed a bit’ Emotional realisations or releases, even letting go of where physical tension has been unconsciously or consciously held, may make you feel a bit tired afterwards. Do keep well hydrated for the rest of the day, and work with what your body might seem to be asking for – whether that is rest or movement – some people will feel a good surge of energy after a session, which its also important to enjoy!

Join us tomorrow, in the beauty of nature for an Imbolc Celebration.

We'll embrace the passing of winter, with fire, food and shamanic journeying, surrounded by the trees and the birds. 

Imbolc marks the time between the winter solstice and the spring equinox, this is a time to celebrate the slow awakening of nature and the activation of the fire within us.

We’ll meet to gather round the fire, as those have done before us.

Desiree Diaz will lead us on a journey, through powerful Shamanic Drumming, to connect with the nature around us and embrace the fire with rituals of manifestation, planting the seeds of what we wish to manifest in spring.

What you can expect

🌱 Becoming part of a woman’s circle

🌱 Sharing food (this will be light refreshments, provided by Moon and will be created from seasonal and local produce)

🌱 Sipping a unique herbal infusion to aid our experience

🌱 Journeying on a drum-led shamanic pathway

This is a space for anyone who has entered womanhood.

Babes in arms also very welcome.

So, join us by the fire this winter.

Find out more via our bio.
