Elemental Flow Craniosacral

There are moments during the treatment when the nervous system shifts gear, the body and mind slow down, becomes more fluid and feels more connected and whole.

We learn to sense the Whole… Patients are very much aware that a different attention is present. They comment on it. It’s not intellectual or intuitive. It’s aboriginal, instinctual… The moment is filled with the effort to be present with the Health in the patient and the story as it unfolds to its own answer… We learn our skills by apprenticeship to something that has no name but it teaches us a great deal.

A little fragment from Allen Watts.. so relevant to the biodynamic craniosacral process as it an essential element of the movement of healing which is innate to all life. Going with the flow is how we describe states of relaxed movement and being as we are 70% or so water, going with the flow is a good description of how the forces of health find their way through obstacles in our body/energy/mind. This is why non-doing touch, touch that doesn’t want to change what is, has such a dramatic effect on the body, it ‘agrees’ with the flow, it lets flow go where it really wants to go.

Receiving as well as giving (for want of a better word) biodynamic craniosacral therapy has simultaneously expanded my feeling of my own body wand that of the natural world. It has transformed my relationship to everything, bringing the magic of being alive into my daily routine and experiences.

Listening to the body is key to health and trauma resolution. It is a vital component of BCST’s effectiveness.

The Parasympathetic Nervous System is a large part of the dynamic of a Biodynamic Craniosacral session. This system is our rest and relax and restore branch of the nervous system which is often not so easy for us to access in our fast passed, action filled lives, harder yet is we suffer from trauma. Safe surrounds, gentle non-intentional touch and contact with certain parts of the body such as lower back and sacrum can all move us into our parasympathetic mode.

The reason I do this therapy! It equally emphasises all dimensions of our existence and that is precisely what makes it so effective at going to the root of trauma, tension, imbalance.

Bessel A. van der Kolk in his book 'The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma' -
The mind needs to be reeducated to feel physical sensations, and the body needs to be helped to tolerate and enjoy the comforts of touch. Individuals who lack emotional awareness are able, with practice, to connect their physical sensations to psychological events. Then they can slowly reconnect with themselves.”

Biodynamic craniosacral therapy is one of the best modalities fro re-educating our relationship to touch because it is gentle, non-invasive and non-intentional. These 3 qualities help the body tolerate, enjoy, relearn and regulate.
