Healing Sessions
HEALING SESSIONS
Where gentle and restorative hands-on bodywork meets therapeutic somatic processing. Subtle movement techniques along with safe and supportive dialoguing create drastic improvements within the physical, mental and emotional bodies and release deeply stored trauma.
healing sessions combine both craniosacral therapy and trauma imprint repair
ABOUT CRANISOACRAL THERAPY
The best way to describe Craniosacral Therapy is that it’s a unique anatomically precise type of bodywork that is approached using light tough, honouring the innate wisdom of the body.
What that means is that even though the foundational core of Craniosacral Therapy is anatomy, it incorporates a much more subtle level of feeling. It’s a deep listening at the hands of the practitioner. The body’s intelligence communicates its needs in order to best find balance and the practitioner has the anatomical precision to gently guide it in the right direction.
Our Craniosacral System covers the area from the cranium (head) to the sacrum (tailbone), consisting of tissue, membranes, and cerebrospinal fluid that help to protect the brain and spinal cord. Over the course of our lives, the body takes on many stresses, be it physical, emotional, mental or spiritual, which can compound and eventually compromise the function of the Central Nervous System along with nearly every other system in the body.
In this whole-body approach, the work is to gently release restrictions, move stuck or stagnant energy and explore underlying emotions as the body unwinds. It’s from this state of deep relaxation that proper functioning is restored.
While a Craniosacral session can be experienced in silence, there are many times when we integrate Trauma Imprint Repair (TIR) in order to address, make sense of and release significant trauma of all kinds. This practice includes therapeutic dialoguing with the subconscious parts of ourselves.

ABOUT TRAUMA IMPRINT REPAIR (TIR)
TIR is a restorative modality that connects us to parts of ourselves deeper within than the mind. This includes our Soul as well as the body as whole.
From birth (and even before birth), parts of us were required to adapt to certain circumstances, experiences, and surroundings. This affects our behaviours, patterns, beliefs, and thoughts and how we then view and engage with the world. These adaptations may have supported us for a time but later in life cause disruption, disturbance within, and even disease.
When the body experiences shock, distress, hurt, or trauma (whether acute or chronic) a common response is to either fight, flight or freeze. If in those instances we were unable to discharge the physiological response, the imprint of the experience can then become stuck. This can result in physical pain, repetitive triggers, emotional turbulence, and/or mental confusion.
When connecting to ourselves by way of TIR, we gain understanding and make meaning of past experiences and are then able to renegotiate a healthier more productive and pleasant future.
This journey is a practice in releasing. By doing so, we increase our tolerance for difficult bodily sensations and suppressed emotions and we become more at ease, happy, clear and free.

BABIES & CHILDREN SESSIONS
Using gentle touch techniques and a supportive approach to emotional release, babies and children may find relief from discomfort, pain and stress of all kinds.
about babies & children sessions
From a Pre and Perinatal Psychology perspective, we arrive as a soul; pure and potent energy. However, the moment we take on form, the potential for imprinting begins. Thus trauma imprints can begin much before childhood. They can begin even before the creation of the first embryological cell. These imprints then play out in childhood, again and again, deepening the pattern.
The work with babies and young children is in releasing restrictions, moving stuck or stagnant energy and exploring underlying emotions in order for the body to self-correct and return to its proper function.
The approach for Babies & Children Sessions combines Biosomatic Craniosacral Therapy, Trauma Imprint Repair (TIR) as well as playful and interactive integration processing. With loving touch and dialogue techniques, many physical, emotional and energetic concerns, often related to birth trauma, can be acknowledged and addressed.
Through the duration of a session with a baby or young child, an emphasis is also placed on the attachment between parent(s) and child to ensure they feel safe, protected, and cared for. In certain sessions, working with both parent and child, at the level of the soul, may be recommended.
From separation at birth and vacuum extraction, to childhood injury and humiliating experiences, Biosomatic Craniosacral Therapy and TIR also provides a deep sense of safety that inspires trauma imprints to reveal themselves. It’s in the revealing that a reconnection with health is inspired.
With change, subconscious patterns of distortion dissolve leading to the body’s natural process of reorganization. This is where symptoms dissipate and alignment and wholeness is be found.

LIFE READINGS
When we connect to our truth, the freedom we truly are can be found in each moment. Life Readings help to strengthen that connection so that we move forward with a sense of clarity, confidence and ease.
about life readings
Life Readings are confirmation of how incredible you truly are.
But sometimes we’re blocked from our own truth and potential because of periods of acute stress, past trauma, frustrating symptoms or illness, intense or misunderstood triggers, recurring thoughts of doubt, uncertainty and fear, stuck in “do” mode. The list goes on.
Life Readings act as a guiding light, helping you see, feel and embody your truth.
Imagine living as joy, awareness and grace. That is you!
When you book a Life Reading, you’ll be asked to provide three areas of life you’d like to receive clarity on, or specific questions that you’d like answered. This can include any aspect of your life whether relational, emotional, physical, spiritual, financial or purpose.
A recent photo of yourself (selfies work just great) will also be required. Through the photo, I connect with you on a soul-to-soul level and ask permission to receive any and all information your soul wants you to know. I receive this information as messages that may include images, words, feelings and sensations, then interpret them in a way that’s easy to understand.
We will then connect on Zoom at the scheduled time, where we will go through the information together, process somatically, and open the dialogue to integrate and make meaning of the information, how it connects to your life, and ways to move forward that feel more aligned and connected to your own wisdom. All with more clarity, confidence and ease.
There are many “aha” moments to be had.
