Flourishing Tides Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
Servicing area
Northern MelbourneFocus areas
Flourishing Tides Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is located in an old part of Pascoe Vale, in Melbourne's north. There is street parking available in front of the residential address clinic. We are an 11-minute walk (650m) from Pascoe Vale Railway Station. The last 300m are uphill and there is a short downhill driveway to the front door. There is one small step into the clinic.
In the beginning the Biodynamic approach to Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) facilitates settling the nervous system, and ultimately stopping, even if momentarily, to catch our breath, and to see. Perhaps, there will be need to resource a while before we can really see. Perhaps you’ll dive in from the outset.
Biodynamics [life-, motions] are our healing modalities. While we give them their names and bear witness to their mode of transforming the body and mind, the healing process is both a creation as yet unknown, and a journey to be undertaken. I have noticed how Biodynamics is quite the empowering path.
To all human body-minds, BCST healing and accompanying deep relaxation and centring naturally offers benefit. Some of the Biodynamics play out specifically throughout the central nervous system. Therefore, BCST may be especially useful to those with trauma, sleep or neurological disorders. Craniosacral therapy offers much appreciated support to those undertaking chemotherapy, and post chemotherapy.
To artists too, an immensely rich and rewarding inner exploration of our extraordinary healing patterns, our becoming, and simultaneously, our experiencing life is offered during sessions. It is a kaleidoscopic avenue to exploring our inner cosmos as both art and artist.
Grounding and embodiment practice is an integral part of every session, whether subtly interwoven, or explicitly explored in broad or minute detail. The Somatic Experiencing work of Peter Levine is the instructive backdrop to this practice of embodiment. Embodiment is learned primarily through on the table experiences and intentional impromptu enjoyable practices.
Please call to discuss your wonderings about what the Biodynamic approach to Craniosacral Therapy might offer to you.
