Craniosacral Therapy at Quiet Medicine

---

Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on way of helping the body soften, unwind tension, and settle the nervous system. The work is subtle and quiet — more like listening with the hands than manipulating tissue. Craniosacral Therapy also works with the body’s connective tissues and tension patterns, which often play a significant role in pain, mobility, and nervous system overwhelm. 

Craniosacral Therapy works with the body’s natural rhythms and tension patterns — especially in the connective tissue (fascia), the cranial and spinal structures, and the nervous system. With light, steady contact, I listen for places where the tissues feel tight, guarded, or held, and support them in finding more ease.

This approach doesn’t push, force, or try to “fix” anything. Instead, it creates space for the system to unwind at its own pace — releasing long-held tension, easing stress patterns, and supporting your body’s ability to regulate itself.

Craniosacral Therapy can support people who live with:

• chronic tension or pain
• sensitive or overwhelmed nervous systems
• symptoms that flare with stress or exertion
• lingering effects of illness or injury
• concussion or head-impact recovery
• fatigue, dizziness, or sensory sensitivity
• emotional stress, grief, or burnout

Many people also notice a reduction in pain and pressure as connective tissues soften and the nervous system moves out of a guarded state. 

Sessions at Quiet Medicine are spacious and unhurried.
We begin with a brief check-in, then shift into hands-on work.

During the session, you’ll lie comfortably on the table while I use very light touch to feel how your system is moving and where it may be holding tension. Much of the work happens in stillness — gentle holds that allow your body to soften, reorganize, and find its own rhythm.

Many people feel:

• a deep sense of rest
• warmth or softening
• quiet internal shifts
• easier breathing
• a calmer nervous system
• a feeling of “coming back into themselves”

Some people also notice changes in pain, pressure, or range of motion as tissues release and the nervous system settles. 

My approach is informed by both anatomical understanding and experiential listening — combining a strong clinical foundation with a slow, gentle way of working that supports the body’s ability to regulate and reorganize. Because I’m trained as a naturopathic doctor with extensive anatomy, bodywork, and integrative medicine experience, I bring depth, presence, and careful attention to this work while staying rooted in what your system can truly hold.

I don’t believe in overwhelming people with long lists of recommendations or expecting the body to shift overnight. Real change takes time, trust, and relationship. I would much rather see someone a few times, understand how their system responds, and then offer thoughtful, strategic guidance — instead of rushing or doing too much too soon.

This slower pace is intentional. It honors the nervous system, respects sensitivity, and allows space for deeper, more sustainable change.

Craniosacral Therapy sessions are available in:

• 60 minutes

Most of our time together is hands-on.
