New Year, New You, New Nervous System!

After the year-end frenzy of activities from fun holiday gatherings, to less-than-fun family dynamics, Amazon overconsumption and all-around bloating, most of us feel born-ready to hit the reset button. A brand new year is an excellent opportunity to invest in the self-care your body craves. Which brings us to why I’m dedicating the first quarter of this year to nourishing your beautiful nervous system!

From January to March, I’m offering a chance for you to enjoy a full hour of CranioSacral Therapy for $15 off.

Many of you have experienced the incorporation of these techniques in your integrative bodywork. However, a different level of healing may be achieved when receiving a session devoted entirely to your CranioSacral System.

Our nerves connect to every gland and organ in our body making the health of our nervous system vital to function and overall health of our entire body. 

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics.

CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.

Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system.

By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including:

  • Migraine Headaches

  • Chronic Neck & Back Pain

  • Motor-Coordination Impairments

  • Colic

  • Autism

  • Central Nervous System Disorders

  • Orthopedic Problems

  • Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injuries

  • Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

  • Scoliosis

  • Infantile Disorders

  • Learning Disabilities

  • Chronic Fatigue

  • Emotional Difficulties Stress and Tension-Related Problems

  • Fibromyalgia and other Connective-Tissue Disorders

  • Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ)

  • Neurovascular or Immune Disorders

  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

  • Post-Surgical Dysfunction

Testimonials

"Kat is highly professional yet fun, intuitive and sincere in her work. I felt absolutely at ease and a huge relief of muscle pains in my neck. She also assisted in balancing my body with the use of craniosacral. Don't think twice about booking! You will not regret it and may very likely become a regular client!" A.F .

“I’ve had several sessions with Kat and every time I walk away feeling great. I’ve historically had lower back issues. Before my last visit, my back was in pain for a couple days, on the verge of going out. I knew if it went out I would be unable to move for a week. She asked if she could try craniosacral. I was skeptical, but willing to try. Afterwards, my back felt better and when I woke up the next morning, I had zero pain. That has never happened before! I was amazed and am now a believer in craniosacral therapy (even though I don’t completely understand “how” it works). I highly recommend Kat as a massage therapist.” R.H.

“Kat has a skill I have not found before, CranioSacral Therapy. She has been very effective in helping me and my husband, although we have completely different issues, she is working on with us.” S.G.

"You know that massage therapist who knew where the hurts are without you having to say a word? Kat is that kind of therapist + does cranial work as well!" C.J.
