What is Craniosacral Therapy ?

Craniosacral Therapy is becoming much better known these days. It is based on a number of findings about the body's subtle physiology, which were made by osteopaths in the USA nearly 100 years ago. These findings show that every cell in a healthy body expresses a rhythmic movement which is fundamental to life and which has been called craniosacral motion. At the core of the body the cerebrospinal fluid, which bathes and cushions the Brain and spinal cord, expresses this motion in a tide-like ebb and flow; while bones, organs and other structures in the body each follow their own particular pattern of movement.

This motion is so subtle that it is barely measurable with instruments, but the hands of a trained therapist are able to perceive it. As the implications of these findings were realised, during the first thirty years or so of this century, Craniosacral Therapy gradually developed. Since then the therapy has been refined and further developed into the subtle, deep healing process which is available today.

Craniosacral Therapy it is a 'hands on' therapy .For treatment, you will usually lie on a treatment table and experience the very light touch of the therapist's hands. You may feel a deep sense of relaxation, and possibly become aware of heat, tingling, pulsations or other sensations.

he therapist uses their hands, to sense what is going on in your body, and in this way both identifies and relieves pains or tensions held in the body.

Craniosacral Therapy is client-led. Your body will set the pace of work, so you will remain comfortable, in control and able to integrate the changes that occur. Since it is your body (rather than your mind) that sets the priorities, you may find that the reason you came for treatment is not what changes first. Also, some people find that it can take a few sessions to get used to what they are feeling. For these reasons, you may need to consider having a series of treatments to gain the full benefit of Craniosacral Therapy and its cumulative effects.

How does Craniosacral Therapy work?

In response to physical knocks or emotional stress, the body's tissues contract. Sometimes, particularly when the shock is severe or occurs within an emotional situation, the tissues stay contracted. Any stresses, strains, tensions or traumas which have been "stored" in the body in this way will restrict the body's functioning and may give rise to problems over the years. The effects may be both physical (such as back pain, migraine or digestive disorders) and emotional (such as anxiety or depression).

Restrictions in the body's functioning show up in the way that craniosacral motion is expressed. Craniosacral therapists are trained to feel this subtle motion in the body, and can use it to identify areas where there is congestion or restriction. In this way they can identify the possible origin of a problem. Then, using the hands to reflect back to the body the pattern it is holding, the therapist provides an opportunity for the body to let go of its restrictive pattern and return to an easier mode of functioning. As well as releasing the body's tensions, this frees the energy which the body was previously using to hold itself in contraction. So one of the benefits of the therapy is an increase in the level of energy available.

Can Craniosacral Therapy help me?

Caniosacral Therapy is so gentle that it is safe and suitable for people of all ages, from babies to the elderly, and also in fragile or acutely painful conditions. Indeed, it is often appropriate when other therapies may be unsafe, such as during pregnancy, after an operation, accident, fall or injury, and for young babies. As a whole body therapy, Craniosacral Therapy may aid people with almost any condition, by raising the vitality and enabling the body's own self-healing processes to be utilised. But you don't have to be ill or have any particular symptoms to benefit from Craniosacral Therapy. The alleviation of life's stresses, and the increased sense of vitality and well-being that Craniosacral Therapy can bring are welcome to most of us at any time.

Emotional Release

We store our life experiences in our bodies. Because the Craniosacral Therapy techniques are gentle, but powerful, the effects go deep without stimulating the body's defenses. They can easily unlock the residue of trauma stored in the tissues. This unlocking and facilitated resolution process is called Emotional Release. It is an integral part of Craniosacral Therapy. Emotional Release uses dialoguing and therapeutic imagery along with other verbal, energetic and physical support techniques to initiate change. These techniques promote the discovery and gentle release of the restrictions that contribute to pain and dysfunction.

Emotions rise to the surface, but emotional release is not necessarily a painful, cathartic event. It can be a friendly negotiation between you and your various parts. When we cling to our once-helpful coping mechanisms after they cease to be useful, they remerge as sources of pain and restriction. The therapist is the facilitator and mediator as she helps guide you toward resolution. After receiving this process-oriented type of bodywork, people report greater clarity, peacefulness and insight along with positive change in their physical symptoms."

"Osteopathy is a science with possibilities as great as the magnitude of the heavens. It is a science dealing with the natural forces of the body. We work as osteopaths with the traditional principle in mind that the tendency in the patient’s body is always toward the normal. There is much to discover in the science of osteopathy by working with the forces within that manifest the healing processes. These forces within the patient are greater than any blind force that can safely be brought to bear from without".

Massage Yoga Rebalancing
 
     

What is Masaje Yoga Rebalancing?

Rebalancing is a form of body oriented awareness work, which brings people back into harmony with themselves, so they can live their essential unity of body, mind and heart. It works with a unique synthesis of body reading, connective tissue manipulation, joint release, energy and breath work, body awareness training as well as emotions and their expression.

As the body releases muscular rigidities and relaxes, energy is set free. At the same time old and unconscious emotional and mental attitudes and patterns which imprison us can come into our awareness. This helps us to a better understanding of ourselves and of our hidden potentials. Hereby we come closer to our innermost core, which enables us to live life more spontaneously and meaningfully.

Rebalancing sees the body as a priceless gift and not as a mechanism that needs to be” repaired”. In this sense Rebalancing meets the uniqueness of each human being.

The treatment usually includes a series of 10 to 12 sessions. Though each session is complete in itself and one session is perfectly ok.

A series of sessions has a powerful synergetic effect and allows the whole body to be systematically included. In this way it is suited to the individual history of the person, to their needs and to the challenges of their actual life situation.

Why the need for bodywork?

In these times of ever faster pace of life people are beginning to realize that they have to give more attention to their physical well being in order to find relaxation from an increasing inner tension.

Holistic, meditative bodywork meets this need in a unique and profound way. It is a tool to understand the human being via the body and the energetic processes therein.

It attempts to free the body from limiting movement patterns and energy blocks and to integrate it into a new form. We create energy through breathing and metabolic processes and release this energy through movement (pulsation). Both are basic life processes.

The amount of energy available to us and the way we deal with it determines how we cope with various situations in life.

We can meet the challenges of life more efficiently if we have a higher energy level available. Then we can experience, among other factors, feeling more alive and energized. A basic insight of holistic bodywork is that body, mind and heart function as a unity.

This means that our thoughts and our feelings affect our body and vice versa. There is a direct relationship between the energetic processes in our body and our aliveness. That is, the more alive we are the more energy is available to us.

The body exists in present time; or at least most of it does. Yet those parts of our bodies that are uncomfortable, painful, or out of our awareness have a link to our past. There is unfinished business held in our bodymind and expressed in that part of our bodies. Where ever there is a part of our life that we have not lived, that impulse not followed, that feeling not felt, we store the unfinished energy in our bodies and isolate it with a layer or shell of fear. This capsule of fear needs to be respected. This is best done in a climate of love and acceptance.

Chronic tension diminishes our energy level and blocks our aliveness. In our bodies this results in structural and postural misalignments and limiting movement patterns. Closely connected to this are unlived emotions and stuck thought patterns. We are limited in our mobility and expression on all levels, which can lead to chronic pain and physical sickness.

Osho Rebalancing as holistic bodywork includes all levels to free these tensions so we can regain our full aliveness and joy of life”.

Benefits of Rebalancing sessions Include:

Greater freedom, fluidity and ease of movement

reduced stress, muscular tension and improved energy

relief from chonic pain (back, knee, neck, migraine)

Changes in old holding patternes and habits of the phisical body to support a shift in consciousness.

The Five Tibetans: a Description
 
     


As described in the text, the Fíve Tibetans, also known as the Five Rites of Rejuvenation, were brought to the West early in this century, by a retired British army officer, who learned them in a Tibetan lamasery. The Five Tibetans are a yogic system of highly energizing postures and exercises that originated in the Himalayas.

Liberating and enhancing the innate energetic power of the human body and mind, these five exercises take a minimum of daily time and effort but offer remarkable results in the way of increased physical strength and suppleness as well as mental acuity. In addition, these exercises can be a vehicle for enlivening the senses and generating and harnessing energy for the purpose of self- transformation.

Regular practice of these postures relieves muscular tension and nervous stress, improves resplration and digestion, benefits the cardiovascular system, leads to deep relaxation and well-being, and tunes and energizes the chakras. The Five Tibetans are explained within the context of traditional yoga, providing a fundation for understanding.

Exercise 1

Stand erect with arms outstretched, horizontal to the floor. Spin around clockwise, until you become slightly dizzy.

Gradually increase (in increments of 2) practicing from 3 up to 21 repetitions per day, for each exercise.

Exercise 2

First, lie flat on the floor, face up. Fully extended your arms along your sides, and place the palms of your hands against the floor, keeping the fingers close together. Then, raise your head off the floor, tucking the chin against the chest.

As you do this, lift your legs, knees straight, into a vertical position. If possible, let the legs extend back over the body, toward the head; but do not let the knees bend. Then slowly lower both the head and the legs, knees straight, to the floor. Allow all the muscles to relax, continue breathing in the same rhythm.

Breathe in deeply as you lift your legs and breathe out, as you lower your legs.

Exercise 3

Kneel on the floor, with the body erect. The hands should be placed against the thigh muscles. Incline the head and neck forward, tucking the chin against the chest. Then, throw the head and neck backward, arching the spine.

As you arch, you will brace your arms and hands against the thighs for support. After the arching, return to the original position, and start the rite all over again.

Breathe in deeply as you arch the spine, breathe out as you return to an erect position.

Exercise 4

Sit down on the floor with your legs straight out in front of you and your feet about 12 inches apart. With the trunk of the body erect, place the palms of your hands on the floor alongside the buttocks. Then, tuck the chin forward against the chest. Now, drop the head backward as far as it will go. At the same time, raise your body so that the knees bend while the arms remain straight.

The trunk of the body will be in a straight line with the upper legs, horizontal to the floor. Then, tense every muscle in the body. Finally, relax your muscles as you return to the original sitting position, and rest before repeating the procedure.

Breathe in as you raise up, hold your breath as you tense the muscles, breathe out completely as you come down. Continue breathing in the same rhythm as long as you rest between repetitions.

Exercise 5

When you perform the fifth rite, your body will be face-down to the floor. It will be supported by the hands, palms down against the floor, and the toes in a flexed position. Throughout this rite, the hands and feet should be kept straight. Start with your arms perpendicular to the floor, and the spine arched, so that the body is in a sagging position.

Now, throw the head back as far as possible. Then, bending at the hips, bring the body up into an inverted 'V'. At the same time, bring the chin forward, tucking it against the chest.

Breathe in deeply as you raise the body, breathe out fully as you lower it.
