✨ What is CranioSacral Therapy (CST)?

CST is a gentle, hands-on therapy that works with your nervous system, cranial bones, and connective tissues to release tension, restore balance, and support your body’s innate healing ability.

Whether you’re experiencing:

Chronic pain

Migraines or post-head injury symptoms

Stress or anxiety

Post-trauma tension

Vision or vestibular issues

CST can help your body relax, reset, and function more efficiently.

🌱 What a session is like

You remain fully clothed and lie comfortably on a therapy table.

I use light, intuitive touch to detect areas of restriction or tension.

Gentle techniques help your nervous system release stress, reduce pain, and restore balance.

💛 How clients often feel afterwards

Deep calmness and relaxation

Reduced pain or tension

Improved mobility and energy

Clarity of mind and emotional ease

A renewed sense of wellbeing and hope

Many clients notice immediate benefits, while others experience gradual improvements over several sessions.

🌟 Why this is the perfect time to try CST

Start your new year with restoration and balance

Book a second treatment for you, a friend or family member at no extra cost

Experience how gentle, focused care can transform your nervous system and daily life

Living with Chronic Pain?

When pain becomes long-term, it can affect not only the body—but hope, identity, and daily joy.

At Embers Healing, I offer gentle CranioSacral Therapy (CST) to support individuals living with chronic pain, persistent back issues, and long-standing physical discomfort.

🌀 How CranioSacral Therapy supports chronic pain:
CST works with the nervous system and the body’s connective tissues to release patterns of tension and restriction that often contribute to ongoing pain. By calming the nervous system and improving communication between the brain and body, this approach supports the body’s natural capacity to soften, adapt, and heal over time.

💛 Why this work is deeply personal:
I have lived with chronic pain and back issues since the age of 17. After my most serious car accident, my pain worsened to the point where I was limping for years and required crutches on two separate occasions for several months at a time.

CranioSacral Therapy played a meaningful role in improving my chronic pain, alongside my regular Qi Gong mobility practice. Through this combination, my body slowly regained more ease, movement, and resilience.

Because of this journey, I truly understand how you feel—the frustration, exhaustion, and the moments when hope may feel distant.

✨ A message for you:
Please do not lose hope. The body has an innate intelligence and deep desire to heal. With the right support, things can improve—and you will feel better.

My clients often report feeling relief, lightness, greater mobility, and renewed optimism after sessions, along with a deeper sense of connection to their bodies.

📍 Sessions available in:
• Nanaimo
• Nanoose Bay
• Mobile sessions from Duncan to Campbell River

📞 I welcome you to reach out for a no-obligation conversation to explore how we can work together toward pain relief, greater freedom of movement, and more enjoyment of life.

Living with Chronic Stress or Anxiety?

Your nervous system may be doing its best to protect you—but it doesn’t have to stay in survival mode.

At Embers Healing, I offer gentle CranioSacral Therapy to support individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, nervous system overwhelm, and emotional fatigue.

🌀 How CranioSacral Therapy supports stress & anxiety:
This subtle, hands-on modality works directly with the nervous system and the body’s natural rhythms. By helping release tension held in the cranial system, spine, and connective tissues, CranioSacral Therapy encourages a shift from fight-or-flight into a calmer, more regulated state—allowing the body and mind to function with greater ease.

💛 My personal journey:
From 2016 to 2021, I lived with ongoing stress and anxiety due to major life changes, a serious motor vehicle accident, and financial pressure. During that time, my nervous system often felt stuck in a constant state of “what ifs,” fear, and overwhelm.

CranioSacral Therapy was one of the most impactful supports I found. It helped calm my nervous system, improve my ability to function day-to-day, and positively transform my relationships and communication. Over time, it helped me move out of a prolonged slump and into a place of greater clarity, resilience, and emotional balance.

✨ What my clients often experience:
Many clients report feeling a deep sense of calm after each session. Often, this is accompanied by feelings of relief, renewed hope, emotional release, and even breakthrough insights or transformative emotions as the nervous system settles and integrates.

📍 Now offering sessions in:
• Nanaimo
• Nanoose Bay
• Mobile sessions available from Duncan to Campbell River

📞 I welcome a no-obligation conversation to explore your current challenges, goals, and how CranioSacral Therapy may support your healing journey.

** Post-Trauma Vision Syndrome? **
Visual symptoms after trauma are more common than many realize.

At Embers Healing, I offer gentle CranioSacral Therapy to support individuals experiencing vision and balance challenges following trauma, including motor vehicle accidents, concussions, or head injuries.

👁️ Common symptoms may include:
• Light sensitivity
• Blurred or double vision (diplopia)
• Visual fatigue
• Dizziness or balance issues
• Vestibular discomfort
• Difficulty focusing or tracking

🌀 How CranioSacral Therapy can help:
CranioSacral Therapy works with the nervous system and the subtle rhythms of the brain and spinal cord. By releasing restrictions around the cranial bones, membranes, and connective tissues, this approach helps reduce neurological stress, improve communication between the brain and eyes, and support vestibular balance.

💛 My personal experience:
After my car accident, I experienced ongoing light sensitivity, blurred and double vision, along with vestibular symptoms that affected my balance and daily functioning. Of all the therapies I explored, CranioSacral Therapy was the most effective and supportive in helping my nervous system settle and my visual symptoms improve.

This experience ultimately led me to train in CranioSacral Therapy myself. During my education, I received and practiced over 200 sessions, further supporting my own recovery and deepening my ability to help others facing similar post-trauma challenges.

Today, I am grateful to support clients dealing with post-traumatic vision and vestibular symptoms, drawing from both professional training and lived experience.

📍 Locations:
• Nanaimo
• Nanoose Bay
• Mobile sessions available from Duncan to Campbell River

📞 I welcome a no-obligation conversation to discuss your symptoms, goals, and whether this approach may be supportive for you.

Chronic Migraines? You’re Not Alone.

At Embers Healing, I offer gentle CranioSacral Therapy to help reduce the frequency and intensity of chronic migraine headaches, especially those linked to stress, trauma, or head injuries.

🌀 How CranioSacral Therapy works:
This is a subtle, hands-on modality that works with the nervous system and the body’s natural rhythms. By releasing restrictions around the brain, spinal cord, and connective tissues, CranioSacral Therapy helps calm the nervous system, improve fluid flow, and support the body’s innate ability to heal.

💛 Why this work is personal to me:
In 2016, I was involved in a serious motor vehicle accident that significantly set me back. My recovery was long and challenging—it took nearly 4 years to reach about 70% recovery. One of my most debilitating symptoms was frequent, intense migraines.

Of all the therapies I tried, CranioSacral Therapy helped me the most.
So much so, that in 2022 I enrolled in formal CranioSacral training. During my schooling, I received and practiced over 200 sessions, and by the end of my training, my symptoms improved by an additional 20%.

Today, I find deep purpose in helping others navigate the same symptoms and injuries I once lived with.

📍 Now practicing in:
• Nanaimo
• Nanoose Bay
• Mobile sessions available from Duncan to Campbell River

📞 I welcome a no-obligation conversation to discuss your health challenges and goals, and to explore whether this approach may be supportive for you.

Sometimes life pushes us down.
Weakness, storms, or unexpected forces may knock us over.

But just like these two trees, we don’t have to stay down. Over time, they grew stronger and rose again—side by side. Perhaps they drew encouragement from each other. Perhaps they simply refused to give up.

Either way, they stand as role models in resilience. 🌱

We too can rise again. We can heal, rebuild, and find new strength after setbacks. And along the way, we can lean on the inspiration of others who are also on their journey to rise.

Have hope. 🌿 Keep growing.
