When complaints become a constant companion

"I've tried so many things, I've been to various doctors, but I feel like I'm not being listened to properly and I'm not being understood."
Often symptoms are alleviated, but the underlying cause does not seem to be addressed.
“Everything is too much for me, I feel insecure, my thoughts are racing and I'm constantly in my head. I can't find any peace anymore.”
Often, the desire arises not only to treat symptoms, but also to understand the underlying connections and support the body holistically. This is precisely where craniosacral therapy comes in.
“Complaints manifest as pain, tension, sleep problems or inner restlessness”
Despite treatments, the nervous system remains tense and the body cannot return to its natural regulation.

Since 2017, I have been supporting people with craniosacral therapy. A gentle, profound, and holistic form of therapy. 

Arrive, take a deep breath and feel your body
At the beginning of the treatment, there is a first moment of arrival. Breathing is allowed to become calmer and the body to slowly find its way out of everyday life.
Feeling supported and trusting
Mindful touch and presence create a feeling of safety and being held.
Perceive the rhythm and movements of the structures holistically and mindfully

With gentle touch, I perceive the craniosacral rhythm and the movements within the structures. Perhaps you too can perceive the rhythm.

To restore the body's balance
Through targeted and mindful work, individual structures such as skull bones, fascia and organs can regain their natural mobility and balance.
Integrate and consciously perceive change
The change is allowed to spread throughout the body, be integrated, and be consciously perceived.

Take time for yourself and your body.

After the treatment, take time for yourself to integrate the changes in your body.

What exactly happens during craniosacral therapy?

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, holistic form of bodywork that focuses on the body's anatomical structures. There is no set procedure for the treatment; I follow what your body tells me.

The brain and cerebrospinal fluid possess a subtle, natural rhythm, known as the primary respiratory rhythm. This primary respiratory rhythm is perceived as the craniosacral rhythm and is transmitted throughout the body via the meninges, skull bones, spine, and sacrum.

Through my gentle and mindful touch of the bones, connective tissue, and fluid systems, tensions and blockages can be released. This supports the body's self-regulation and helps the nervous system regain balance.

I sense the craniosacral rhythm, allow myself to be guided by it, and thus shape the treatment.  

Every bone has its own inherent movement, and I perceive this. If these are out of balance, I will support you in correcting them. 

In the case of a lesion of the synchondrosis sphenobasilaris (SSB), the connection between the sphenoid bone and the occipital bone, I offer the SSB a solution so that the two bones can move freely again.

Here I hold the shoulder joints and feel how they are. Do the joints need more space, or does the fluid need to be moved so that the shoulders are freer again? 

I usually finish a treatment either at the feet or at the shoulders to integrate the change into the body.

What can change through craniosacral therapy

Craniosacral therapy supports the nervous system in regaining calm and stability. Many people experience improved sleep, greater inner balance, and increased stress resilience.

Tension can be released, pain can subside, and the body feels more mobile, free, and vibrant. At the same time, it strengthens body awareness and personal responsibility.

There are many other treatment options available. Let's discuss them in a free telephone consultation.
