What is Craniosacral Therapy?
Craniosacral therapy or CST works with the whole body and not just the head as the name Cranio suggests.
Therapists work with the Cerebral Spinal Fluid which circulates around the brain and down the spinal cord in a continuous flow.
It is packed full of nutrients signalling molecules and growth factors which nourish the neurone in the brain.
This flow can be disrupted causing physical and mental issues. CST helps to "facilitate the flow of fluid which can alleviate a lot of symptoms through a series of treatments.
After each treatment, changes may occur in the body mind and spirit. The therapist will lay their hands lightly on the person and uses them to “listen” to the body through sensitive touch.
Your body responds to this touch and begins to listen to itself. Some people seek to have CST because they have acute physical problems like headaches, bad backs or long standing physical and or emotional problems.
It is a gentle and non-invasive therapy making it ideal for people of all ages, for babies to help with the process of being born and to help the mother recover from the birth.
CST supports your body’s innate ability to balance, restore and heal itself, as well as helping to reduce stress and build your underlying inner energies.
The therapist can sense these tensions and help to release them.
During a session the client may feel calm and energised or sometimes they may feel nothing apart from a sense of relaxation and they notice differences over the next few days.
After a session there is occasionally a short period of adjustment happening within the body and this may make the client more aware of the symptoms.
Some people report relief from issues after only a couple of sessions, others take longer if they have long standing issues.

What is Auricular Acupuncture?
Ear seeds are the oldest healing modality you’ve probably never heard of. Rooted in the principles of Chinese medicine, ear seeds are a natural, effective, and side-effect-free product that can support a broad spectrum of health concerns including anxiety, stress, headaches, digestion, immunity, and focus.
They are a needle-free form of auriculotherapy - the stimulation of specific points of the ear to address physical and emotional health concerns.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the ear is a microsystem of the whole body, where certain points on the ear correspond to different organs or body parts.
Ear seeds create continual, gentle pressure on nerve impulses in the ear which send messages to the brain that certain organs or systems need support. The brain will then send signals and chemicals to the rest of the body to support whatever ailments you’re experiencing, releasing endorphins into the bloodstream, relaxing the nervous system, and naturally soothing pain and discomfort.
when in place the seeds stimulate and apply pressure to nerve endings which in turn send messages to the brain or identified parts of the body that needs support.
