Waiuku Craniosacral Therapy

Last day of 2025 was a beautiful sunny day in Shropshire with our extended UK family 💕

Happy New Year and thank you so much for the follows/comments/support and most of all to my clients, from ages 6 weeks to 90 years who entrusted me with their wellbeing and health throughout 2025! 🙏😀

I went for a walk in the woods and found fairy houses, lots of squirrels and a very old yew tree, next to a Tudor Manor House

‘The yew tree is a potent symbol in magic, deeply tied to death, rebirth, eternity, and transformation, acting as a spiritual guardian in graveyards, a conduit to ancestors, and a source of powerful protection and divination, despite its toxicity, linking it to the underworld and hidden knowledge.

Its unique wood was used for powerful bows, and its ancient, resilient nature makes it a potent ally in spiritual work, connecting past, present, and future.’

For the Craniosacral Therapists out there, they may remember Michael Kern’s childhood story of a Yew tree? - I can’t remember it exactly but I thought of it today!

So much beautiful greenery and growth in the vegetable garden over the past week.

We’ve got a bumper crop of blueberries and passion fruit on the way - which we may miss as we’ll be away in England!

In a year that has felt a bit ‘stuck’ for a lot of us, treading water trying to keep businesses afloat in a pretty bad recession, with a massive increase in cost of living, it’s felt difficult at times.

I’m lucky that I have an amazing base of long term clientele who trust me with their health and who reach out when their bodies whisper ‘you need a Craniosacral treatment!’

I’ve also been growing this year, by up-skilling to include Holistic Life Coaching and ACT (Acceptance and commitment therapy, a form of CBT)

I am SO excited to be offering these life changing therapies next year 👏 in person and online.

Look how pleased with myself I am with my first attempt at a floral display 😆

I was asked to submit one as a local business for the annual ‘Florafest’ here in Waiuku this weekend 🌸

The brief was to represent what our business does… florally!

I got the weathered pot from my favourite shop Waiuku Zero Waste and painted it with a face and ‘Craniosacral’ hands. The lovely Kathy .wellbeing offered up some of her beautiful roses and her very cool spine model 💕

I went with an inner wisdom /brain ventricles/third eye/neurons theme and thoroughly enjoyed the process!

I hope you’re also enjoying this beautiful spring in Aotearoa, or whichever season you’re in 🥰

This young person came to see me while suffering from daily headaches that became gradually worse over a couple of months.

She'd tried Osteopathy and had been told there was a bulge in her cervical spine, but she didn't feel any improvement from the treatment, which was all focused around her head and neck.

The first thing I am interested in when someone comes with headaches is what's going on with their sacrum.

If the natural sacral movement is inhibited in any way due to tension, mis-alignment (being pulled to one side usually from a sore hip or injury), headaches often result.

Using the sacrum hold and and cradle (back of head) hold for two sessions, we noticed her spine lengthening back in to its natural state, like it had been compressed from above. This can feel to the client like they are stretching out, getting taller.

By the third session she'd had no more headaches, felt amazing and said this lovely statement.

My friend has set up her own gallery and a shared art studio space in the centre of Waiuku - in the the beautiful space where I attended many yoga classes, workshops and other events at Yoga Lane.

Today is the last day of The Franklin Arts Trail and I finally popped down with my Mum Carol (standing at the entrance) to enjoy the beautiful works of our amazing local talents at the Waiuku Camera Club - including Keely herself. Her daughter drew the stunning expressive charcoal faces.

There's been some fantastic new discoveries in nutrition science for people struggling with brain fog, bloating, tiredness and rashes/itchy skin, but don't have any diagnosed or obvious food intolerances.

Food incompatibility may be the culprit!

Article is 1 minute read :)

New data links everyday pantry staples to a raft of unexplained symptoms. Milk and bread top the charts, affecting 95% of tested individuals, while bloating, tiredness, rashes and itchy skin have been revealed as the most common symptoms among sufferers.

Not an orange 🍊 but a free stress ball 😊 I went to a bloomin’ fantastic FREE course on Mental Health today called MH 101, provided by and funded by Te Whatu Ora (NZ Ministry of Health) & Te Pou

Aaaaand I got not one but TWO lovely gluten free food items provided!

‘Develop confidence to recognise, relate and respond to people experiencing mental health challenges’

The facilitators were outstanding - very culturally and trauma aware and held space beautifully with all support systems put in place for anyone needing it during the day -long course 💕

Anyone can sign up for these courses in person and they’re also available online. There’s an Addiction one that I plan to do next. 👏

An amazing free resource from the government to take advantage of… while you can I would say…!

Castle Hill, with huge rocks worn away by millions of years of Canterbury winds… some look like remarkably like vertebrae!
