Craniosacral Therapy

IMG_1107.CSTjpg Craniosacral Therapy (CST) involves very gentle responsive listening to the craniosacral system, including the bones of the skull, brain, spinal chord, sacrum, and fluid membrane system that surrounds all of these structures. Designed to locate and release any imbalances in this system, CST stimulates and supports healthy functioning of the whole body. Its light receptive touch and meditative quality brings a deep calmness and balance to the body-mind-spirit.

Laura began studying CST in 1984 with the Cambridge Polarity Wellness Center and Upledger Institute. She has also studied Biodynamic CST with Franklin Sills, Scott Zamarut, Charles Ridley, and Michael Shea.

I’ve known Laura for more than twenty years through our studies in Psychosynthesis. I’ve been working with her off and on ever since. Laura is a wonderful practitioner. She’s trained in a number of different bodywork modalities, including Polarity and Cranio-Sacral Therapy, and has a variety of different skills. She’s also trained as a psychotherapist. So whatever the issue is that I want to work on, whether it’s physical or psychological, she has a graceful and sophisticated response.

But there’s something else even more important that makes Laura good at what she does. She’s an excellent listener. Whenever I tell her about an issue I’m dealing with, she enters my model of the world, she empathizes with me. Once she’s really listened and understood my experience her insights and suggestions often point me in a new and fruitful direction. As a result, I’ve grown and benefited tremendously from working with Laura over the years.
