The Art of Neutrality in CranioSacral Therapy

In Upledger CranioSacral Therapy, “neutral” is more than a concept—it’s a way of being.

As Tad Wanveer, LMT, CST-D, explains in this article, therapeutic neutrality has three key aspects:
1️⃣ The practitioner’s inner state
2️⃣ The client–practitioner relationship
3️⃣ The therapeutic process

Dizziness? Vertigo? Spinning?

Found this image again. Nice map of structures and connections between them that are incredibly important. It may not just be crystals in your ear. I once saw a woman where dizziness was corrected by working her foot.

So, I would probably also include feet, but a quick list of structures to assess here:
-Temporal bones and TMJ
-C1
-Shoulder girdle, especially manubrium
- Pelvis, p***c bone and sits bones

Reflexes govern a lot of these connections, like Visual Righting or Labyrinthine.

How do you train reflexes??? What causes reflexes to diminish or disappear?

Pause.

Pause for a moment and ask yourself: How do I feel? And what do I feel?

Maybe you feel inspired, angry, or calm—that’s your emotional awareness. But emotions aren’t separate from your body; they are sensations too. What physical sensations accompany your emotions? Tightness in your chest? Warmth in your belly? Tingling in your fingers?

This practice of noticing both how you feel (emotionally) and what you feel (physically) creates a sensory relationship with your emotions. It grounds you in your body’s wisdom, allowing your nervous system to shift into a state of healing and restoration.

Take one minute today to ask yourself: How and what do I feel?

Notice the answers that arise, and trust your body’s intelligence.
