What kinds of symptoms respond best to Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy?

Anecdotal evidence shows BCST may be helpful in addressing such situations as impingement of cranial nerves or spinal nerves, left-right imbalances, head injuries, confusion, feelings of compression or pressure, anxiety, depression, circulatory disorders, organ dysfunctions, learning difficulties, neuro-endocrine problems, TMJ and dental problems, and trauma of all kinds — birth, falls, accidents and other injuries, physical, sexual or emotional abuse, loss/grief, surgery, anesthesia, P.T.S.D., among others.

BCST is also excellent as a preventive therapy because it can facilitate the resolution of imbalances within a patient/client’s system that can later lead to illness or injury.

 

Is the work primarily focused on the head?

BCST is a holistic whole-body therapy and works with the entire body.  Hand holds range from the  feet, sacrum (or the base of your spine), to around the base of the ribs to the head, neck and shoulders. 

 

Are there manipulations involved?

No. Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is distinguished by its minimal reliance on manipulations of any kind. If the various Craniosacral methods could be characterized and compared, the Biodynamic style would be placed at the non-manipulative or yin end of the spectrum.

In the Biodynamic approach, the healing process comes from within the client, not from the outside by the practitioner, and the hand contacts are based on listening and following/reflecting the client’s process rather than pushing or manipulating the client towards a theoretical ideal state.

 

Is Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy the same as Reiki?

While Reiki deals primarily with the energetic body, Craniosacral Therapy addresses the physical, fluid bodies and tissues. The BCST practioner is not transfereing or chaneling energy as is often done in Reiki. 

 

How many sessions will I need?

This depends on what your goals are, what symptoms you suffer from, and how readily your system responds to this therapy. As a general rule, three to ten sessions will have a significant impact on most people’s health, and in some cases only one session can make a dramatic difference.

Often, clients receive regular sessions for longer periods of time, followed by an occasional tune-up to maintain health. But the work is cumulative and most clients see the most benefit after receiving a series of session. 

 

I still don't understand what you are doing. How does Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy work?

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy begins after a level of safety is created for the client. This is achieved in the communication between client and practitioner who together negotiate the space and contact between therm. Once contact is established, the practitioner listens deeply to the fluctuations of what we call Primary Respiration (which can include the fluxuation of the ceribral spinal fluid) within the craniosacral system.

The fluctuation of the cerebrospinal fluid creates a variety of tides within the system. As the practitioner — from a place of stillness — listens to these internal tides, the client’s system begins to access its own inner resources, little like finding keys to previously locked doors. The cerebrospinal fluid — as it bathes and protects the brain and spinal cord — carries an intelligence and potency (life force), which becomes mixed with other bodily fluids via the dural membranes. A Biodynamic Craniosacral therapist learns to listen deeply to the system, tapping into its inherent intelligence, while focusing on the system remembering its original blueprint of health.  The therapist encourages the client’s system to access its resources, offering new choices and possibilities for the system at every level.
