Craniosacral Therapy
This gentle hands-on technique addresses structural & systematic imbalances by facilitating the release of physical, emotional, or psychological stress and/or trauma restrictions using myofascial release & light touch on the head, neck & sacrum. CST supports the self-regulation & self-healing attributes of the nervous system. As the nervous system releases residual stress responses, it finds coherence again & self-healing naturally arises. It's possible in the process that fragmented emotions, memories or sensations may arise for integration. When this occurs, Audrey facilitates somatic awareness practices to help treat a number of conditions by assisting the nervous system to re-balance on a (w)holistic level.
