RESTORING CONNECTION

‘The rest of my body feels better connected to my head’, said the young person on my table.
I asked ‘What benefit do you get from that feeling?’
‘I feel more coordinated.’
‘Can you explain?’
‘I feel more coordinated in general.’  😀
This was significant because this person has a tendency to bump into things, then gets bruised, and stays bruised longer. ☹️
They was more…
‘My legs feel more in tune with the rest of my body.’  😀
When two specific bones of the head [the Sphenoid & Occiput] are out of alignment eye/motor coordination problems can result.  When these bones are brought back into alignment critical eye/motor coordination can be restored.  This can then significantly improve one’s ability to perform functions most of us take for granted.

I CAN TOUCH MY TOES!

What do you think it would mean to a kid to be able to touch his toes again?

IT WOULD TICKLE HIM WITH DELIGHT:).

That’s exactly what Craniosacral Fascial Therapy (CFT) did for a kid whose body was already tight and had only been getting tighter of recent.

In helping the body to release some of its tightness CFT allowed the kid to feel looser and more comfortable in his body.  It created space and openness for him to move with ease.

Craniosacral Fascial Therapy has untapped potential to help the body of any child move through space with great clarity, function and ease.

A LITTLE EFFORT CAN GO A LONG WAY

I recently took a bridesmaid’s dress to get altered at a dry cleaner.  The salesperson who took my measurements wasn’t the tailor.

When I picked up the dress a week later, I discovered that even though I’d lost some weight the dress felt surprisingly tighter.  When I tried to figure out what the problem was, I discovered that the shoulders straps had been altered by a different amount on each side.

So I called the sales person to let her know what the problem was.  She then let the tailor know, and he agreed to make the correction without personally coming to take a look.

I asked if he would oblige me and he did.  This helped him to understand what I was experiencing.

When it was all done, I began to wonder.  Would the dress have been altered correctly the first time if the tailor had been the one to have taken the measurements?

‘ME TIME’

MOM ‘ME’ time is important for moms, for moms who put their families first, and who very often don’t think of their needs at all. A parent who had brought their child in for emotional support was intrigued with the difference it was making, so decided to sign themselves up for the same. Progressively, they also recognized the importance of scheduling different day appts. for each of them. How often do you as a parent carve out ‘ME’ time for yourself in your schedule?

STRESS, STRAIN & TIGHTNESS WITH EMOTIONS

Sometimes we have a lot of things going on inside us emotionally that it becomes way too much to process at a given time. This holding in uses space and energy and puts the body under continual strains and stress. The build-up of stress can contribute to tightness and pain within the body’s connective and muscle tissues.

Craniosacral Fascial therapy can be helpful in releasing the tightness, pain, and stress in the body’s tissues and help the body to become open, soft and loose.

SPORTS INJURY BENEFITS FROM BODYWORK

A young child came in with an unusual pain around the low back /hip area which precipitated from a normal move he had made during basketball camp. As soon as I started working on him he expressed continued pain which is far from usual in my work. This indicated very strongly to me that he should be looked at by the chiropractor in the office. She then confirmed the tightness I had found in his body a few weeks ago. Due to the amount of tightness in his body and the adjustments needed to address it, it left him feeling pretty tender. This feeling can last up to 24+ hours and I informed him of the same. What became really helpful after the adjustment was the Craniosacral Fascial Therapy wellness session that was continued after the adjustment. It was timely, in that it soothed, comforted and relaxed his body, and helped it to integrate the adjustment. If you or your child are having complications from a sports / athletic injury, consider a combination of Craniosacral Fascial Therapy and Chiropractic to get your bodies and tissues back in order.
