Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST)
+
Transforming Touch®
(TEB, Transforming the Experience-based Brain)
Bodywork done while fully clothed on a massage table.
Light static touch and nurturing communication. Nothing to fix or change.
No expectations or judgement.
Complete presence and awe of what is in the moment.
Trusting the body to show you what safety feels like, rather than the mind.
$85 60 min BCST session includes intake and/or sharing, approximately 40 minutes on the table and 10 minutes of transition time to share and reorient
$100 80 min BCST session includes the above with additional time on the table
$85 60 minute appointment for Transforming Touch® session.
$60 Face Exploration (online) Face to face in co-regulation, you'll mirror my hand shapes and positioning on the torso, neck, head and face. Experience a new way to hold yourself that focuses on coming into the "rest and digest" nervous system and sensations of safety. We will also help our body refresh its “map” to know where our parts are in space (proprioception) allowing the possibility to move and align with greater health and efficiency. Learn contacts you can come back to over and over when your system needs to shift away from from fear, worry and general anxiousness about your changing appearance. Address the stress that can bring undesired changes in the function of your facial skin and its appearance. No products needed. 45 minutes.

In spite of doctors, therapists, adjustments, or even the yoga, massage and meditation that work so well for your friends, do you struggle to feel good in your body, have day to day ease, or feel equipped to handle the inevitable ups and downs of being human? Maybe you've recently reached your limit because of an illness, the illness or loss of a loved one or the stress of Covid-19. Wouldn't it be great to feel safety and support? Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) and Transforming Touch® are the gentlest bodywork I have found and can offer a deep rest that not only last during a session, but also carry over into other aspects of your life as your Autonomic Nervous System gains more flexibility, helping to restore your innate ability to respond with more ease to whatever life may offer. Decisions about how to best serve your health are informed by new insights. The nourishing field of a session can reintroduce fluidity, possibility and choice to a body suffering from stiffness and pain.
After explaining the work to clients and settling my own nervous system, my job is to wait. Wait for the client’s nervous system to feel safe enough to access the rest-and-digest response of the parasympathetic nervous system at ease, as this state best supports the body’s ability to self-heal. No diagnosis, adjusting or manipulating. In BCST the session directs itself with collaboration and conversation with the client, making sure the contact and pacing feels comfortable. Transforming Touch® contact is also negotiated with the client but I follow a step-by-step protocol, making this my preferred work with children (and some adults) who seem to feel safer with predictability.
A deeper, more settled state can feel similar to being in a meditative state. (Don't worry, you don't have to be "good" at meditation or even have tried it.) With the help of the practitioner's own settled nervous system, moving away from thoughts becomes easier, as the practitioner's system becomes a mirror offered to the client's system.
*I have a limited number of reduced rate/sliding scale appointments available each month. Please call me to ask about these.
