MIGRAINES OR CONSTANT HEADACHES?

Why not try a gentle, natural approach.

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a light-touch, noninvasive therapy that helps release tension in the head, neck, and spine.

Many clients report:
• Fewer headaches & migraines
• Less pain and pressure
• Reduced need for medication
• Better neck movement & overall relaxation

How CST may help:

• Gently releases tight fascia (connective tissue) around the skull, neck, and spine
• Supports healthy flow of cerebrospinal fluid
• Relieves pressure on irritated nerves and muscles

If medications alone aren’t giving you the relief you want, CST can be a soothing, complementary option alongside your current care.

When I’m working with a client, I’m not just using technique – I’m meeting you from the heart. Creating a deeply compassionate, safe space is at the core of my Craniosacral Therapy work.

Did you know your heart is the most powerful source of electromagnetic energy in your body?

Its electrical field is around 60 times stronger than the brain’s. Its magnetic field is over 100 times stronger and can be measured up to 3 feet away, in all directions. Research from the HeartMath Institute shows that our heart rhythms can actually synchronise with those around us – including our animals.

In one study, 12‑year‑old Josh simply sat near his dog, Mabel, and consciously radiated feelings of love toward her. He didn’t touch her or try to get her attention. As he generated this loving state, the heart rhythms of both Josh and Mabel shifted into greater coherence together, as seen in the graph below.

In a similar study, researcher Ellen Gehrke, Ph.D., sat quietly with her horse. Without touching or interacting, she moved into a calm, coherent heart state – and the horse’s heart rhythm also shifted into a more ordered, harmonious pattern.

This is why the quality of presence in a healing session matters so much. In Craniosacral Therapy, I work with this gentle, heart-based coherence to support your nervous system, help you settle, and allow your body’s innate healing intelligence to emerge.

If you’d like to experience this kind of grounded, heart-centered care, you’re welcome to get in touch or message me here to book a session.

➡️ Are you a horse rider?
➡️ Are you looking to improve your riding and get the best out of your partnership with your horse?
➡️ Are you plagued with body niggles/injuries?
➡️ Is your horse stuck in 'your' compensation pattern?

Having treated horses for the last ten years there are many times I have discussed who the compensation pattern is coming from? As riders we spend hundreds on saddle fittings, bridle and bit fittings, physios, osteos, training lessons for our horse but very few riders actually invest in themselves. If you have physical body restrictions you cannot expect your horse to not have the same.

Craniosacral Therapy is a wonderful light hands on touch engaging with the body at a very deep but subtle level. Helping to treat pain and dysfunction and aid improvement in overall body health. It is an incredibly effective approach and works alongside the body’s ability to repair itself. This therapy is what helped me avoid spinal surgery.

🔵 Do something for your horse today, come and book a session for yourself.

Following my recent post this popped into my feed which I might give a try.

Let’s talk about the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)!

The ANS plays a crucial role in regulating our vital functions in our body. It is made up of two main branches:
1. The Sympathetic Nervous System and
2. The Parasympathetic Nervous System

🤔 What exactly does that mean?

The Sympathetic system is more commonly known as the “fight or flight” system. It is activated in response to stress or perceived threats, preparing the body for action. In our body this displays as increased heart rate and blood pressure, change in breathing, release of glucose by the liver to send energy to the muscles and limit non-essential functions like digestion. We don’t need to be digesting our Sunday dinner whilst trying to run away from immediate threats!

Equally, the Parasympathetic system is known as “rest and digest”. Promoting relaxation, recovery and energy conservation. This shows up in the body as slowing of the heart rate, stimulating of digestion, and secretion of glands.

It is important to note that the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic systems are designed to function in a complementary and dynamic manner. Their balance is essential to maintain homeostasis in our body and allow for flexible adaptation to environmental demands.

‼️ Dysfunctions of the ANS can contribute to various medical and psychological conditions. For example, high blood pressure, anxiety and post-traumatic stress, depression, digestive disorders and emotional regulation problems.

If you are feeling that you are not ‘in balance’ and maybe experiencing one or a number of these symptoms, get in contact, Craniosacral works wonderfully with regulating the ANS and anything related to this that may inhibiting your ability to a balance in overall health.
