Lisa Prentice Craniosacral Therapy Offering Craniosacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, and somatic and breath supports in Vancouver BC

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle manual therapy practice that supports both interception (felt body sense) and subtle fascial changes. I guide my clients toward finding and building new relationships to their own bodies and symptoms, and toward experiences of finding room to slow down and accommodate the body’s natural pace and rhythms. The result is greater freedom from discomfort, both mental and physical.

A new study from Boston University is the first to illustrate that the brain’s cerebrospinal fluid pulses during sleep, and that these motions are closely tied with brain wave activity and blood flow. It may confirm the hypothesis that CSF flow and slow-wave activity both help flush toxic, memory-...

‘WE ARE SHAPED BY OUR EXPERIENCE’

As I think of Franklyn these words play in my head. I heard him repeat these words often, over my long years of close association with him and they guided my clinical practice.

Southerland was fond of the proverb ‘As a twig is bent, so the tree will grow’. Meaning that events in early life affect our future health. In particular, he was describing the impact of physical forces exerted on the head when we are born and how these forces mould the growth pattern and potential of the whole body, as we progress through life.

Franklyn’s phrase, WE ARE SHAPED BY OUR EXPERIENCE, expands that idea beyond the structure and function of the physical body to encompass the emotional, psychological and spiritual dimensions of human experience. The living body becomes a storehouse for our biography.

So, when we put our hands somebody, we are touching their life history, their whole being. That opens the door to a more authentic, compassionate engagement with those who seek our help.

Discover Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle manual therapy with its roots in Osteopathic medicine. The sensitive and specialized touch used in cranial work discovers subtle rhythms and movement in the body as well as any disruptions or restrictions limiting full physical expression and resulting in discomfort and stress. CST can support clients in discovering their own physical connectedness and the experience of greater stillness of mind. Clients often discover a new willingness to allow themselves to slow down and accommodate the body’s natural pace and rhythms.

During a Craniosacral session, clients remain clothed as the practitioner offers light and supportive touch at various places on the entire body, not just the head. Bone manipulation or high velocity thrusts such as those typically used in chiropractic work or classical osteopathy are not used.

I have trained with the Upledger and Barral Institutes, completing the Advanced level of Craniosacral study, as well as specialized courses in Cranial Nerves and Glial cells and Pediatrics. I have also trained in Visceral and Neuromeningeal Manipulation. I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have prior to booking an appointment, you are welcome to message me here.
