Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
Accessing the inherent healing power of the body with gentle somatic touch.
I am excited to offer these two very experiential trainings in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy

These courses will grow your skills of Perceptual Awareness, Presence and and understanding of our Three Bodies: physical, fluid and tidal as well as how to access awareness in each field.
Perceptual Awareness and Presence are the foundational skills of BioDynamic Craniosacral Therapy


Here is a brief article that will help you understand what this beautiful practice is all about:

There are inherent, intelligent and unexplained forces that create and maintain the human body.

Every second, 10 million cells are destroyed in the body, and have to be replaced immediately and precisely, otherwise the body would explode or dissolve. There is no way to predict where the cells will be destroyed. And yet - every minute, our bodies continue to re-produce themselves and we don’t even notice.

When we were formed as embryos, we first existed as fluid dynamics - before genes and neurons, fluid dynamics impeccably shaped our bodies.

What are the mysterious forces that reliably create and sustain life? What goes awry when they no longer function and disease, dysfunction and pain take over?

These are the questions at the heart of the practice of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST). While these mysteries go unexplained by modern science, the founders and innovators in the field of BCST found that there are subtle fluctuations and movements in the body, and that when these movements (which are the expression of the Breath of Life as the Tides, also referred to as the natural biorhythms in and around the body) are augmented by therapeutic listening, patients recovered from a host of conditions.

Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle therapeutic approach based on the Osteopathic discovery of micro-movements in the body. Through extensive experimentation, early osteopathic physicians determined that when this motion has full expression, many conditions improve. The name “Craniosacral” specifically indicates the importance of the central structures of the body including cranium, spine and sacrum.

At its start, the work was very manipulative, but later practitioners discovered that less and less intervention was needed in order to make substantial and also dramatic changes, and that creating a supportive environment so that the client’s system generates therapeutic change from within, was actually very effective. This more subtle approach to the work was called “Biodynamic” Craniosacral Therapy.

A skilled biodynamic craniosacral practitioner listens to the subtle pulsations of the system as the body tells its story. The body speaks through its natural biorhythms, micro-movements and especially through its experience-managing patterns of physical shaping. With deep listening the practitioner encourages revitalization of the inherent healing potential of the system, and supports the Breath of Life in the release of resistance patterns. This approach emphasizes hearing the health of the system and encouraging its expression.

Craniosacral Therapy involves gentle hands-on work that honors the client’s own self-healing process. The intention is not to fix problems, but rather to encourage the emergence of new levels of order in mind and body. Practitioners know how to recognize the presence of the Breath of Life in many levels and locations of the body, and use appropriate methods to support and nurture its natural expression.

My students are loving this work and what it adds to their practice and ability to develop a healing relational field with their clients, many of them repeating the course several times, as each class is dynamically unique.

You may take either class, they do not have to be taken in order.

Registration Fee: $425,

Recent Student Review: "I truly can't say enough about how wonderful this class was. Rose's presence is deeply welcoming and nurturing. She creates a space where you feel safe to grow, explore, and expand your understanding without pressure or pretense. I am incredibly grateful for how this training sharpened the CST tools I walked in with, while expanding both my understanding and my capabilities within this modality. Experiences like this remind me why I love this work so much.
If you are looking for a meaningful CE course, I highly recommend training with Rose."
Christine Martin, Functional Body Therapies, LLC

"I traveled eight hours to get to this amazing course with Rose. I returned, home with a steady energy and did not have to take the next day off work. My field is occupational therapy with children and families. How Rose structured this course really speaks to her understanding of healing, and of health and wellness. Rose is an instructor who speaks and can hold space with a depth of compassion and understanding of a woman who has done healing work for so many years. I love the structure of the class and the easy framework I came home with. Thank you Rose."

One of my clients once said to me "Wow where did all that stillness come from" She had never experienced it before. Many of us haven't, we are too busy pushing through... our to do lists, our feelings, our sensory connection to nature and to ourselves.

But that stillness is where our sense of connection and belonging live.
It is also where there is spaciousness that has room for everything.
In this spaciousness and stillness is our heart center our inner knowing that was and is here before all the pushing down, avoiding, the denying that there is even anything to be pushed down and avoided.

This is where the unacknowledged, unaccepted parts of ourselves have also been relegated.

All of this consumes energy, so we feel tired and the need to rush to push through so we can stop

But we're afraid to stop, it doesn't feel safe.......this is what a chronically activated sympathetic
nervous system feels like. One wise teacher said, "We have a nervous nervous system"

When we work together with the Breath of Life, as we do in BioDynamic Craniosacral Therapy,
Our nervous, nervous system begins to feel safe, and that allows us to open and rest into the sense of spaciousness and connectedness that is a part of our basic essence, we begin to come home to our senses and our wholeness.

And in this spacious, connected place awareness grows and there is space to feel what was not safe to feel, we come into the presence of the present moment. We gain access to our inner knowing, our inner guidance system begins to come back on line

In these chaotic trying times this is needed now more than ever, to enable us to live and to love and to enjoy our lives and the people in our lives.

I invite your to take time to take a pause

Intro to CST II class, focusing on
"The Healing Ground of Trauma"
May 15 to 17, 2026
Friday thru Sunday from 9 am to 4:30 pm

You don't have to have taken Part I to enroll.
$425 18 CE hours
at Body Wellness Massage Academy in Conway

Writer Carol Patterson describes us as a PTSD Society. Many, if not all of us are carrying some level of PTSD in our nervous system. When our nervous system is triggered, we lose our ability to respond in present time. We, in effect, become disconnected from our empathy, our compassion, our bodies, the living earth herself.

In this BioDynamic Craniosacral class we will first address ourselves, using guided mediations and the hands on practice sessions to begin to address our own trauma/PTSD wounding. This is essential if we are to provide a space of safety and sanctuary that allows our clients to feel safe enough to find their own sense of inner connection and belonging. From this place of safety we will explore ways to help our clients resource themselves and enable us to help them release their trauma wounding without recreating or creating more trauma.

In the past, some therapists and therapies advocated cathartic experience as the way to release trauma, but research has shown that it does just the opposite.

There is much research to support the BioDynamic approach of facilitating safety as the healing ground of trauma.

Although we don't focus on fixing lesions in the BioDynamic approach, many people find that pain and chronic conditions are much improved.

William Garner Sutherland, the early Osteopath on whose lineage our work is based, came to believe that it is the Intelligence of Life, or as he called it, the Breath of Life that does the work, that releases the patterns of energy held in our body and not the practitioner, our role is to learn to perceive the movement of the Breath of Life and support and follow it with our awareness and attention.

SO, our training is to train and practice to deepen and widen our field of perception, and also in helping the client to become more aware of this healing relationship that we in this work call "the Health"
The guided meditations and hands on work provide an opportunity for you to do your own work, allowing you to provide the safe and nurturing space your clients need in order to rest under their sympathetic activations. This allows their systems to open to the deeper healing ministrations of the Breath of Life/
It is for this reason that I keep these classes small.

"I've studied with Rose Alisandre multiple times (three as of my writing, probably more as you're reading this). Each time the work gets deeper, more meaningful, and more subtle. There are layers upon layers of accrued tensions and blockages that shift, then melt, then evaporate as I sit in the tide. Rose is a committed, compassionate, and articulate teacher. She has a wealth of knowledge and insight into Craniosacral Biodynamics. Every class is unique and a reflection of the students who are present. The class becomes its own little ecosystem and we bond deeply in just a weekend. I'm repeatedly amazed at how Rose creates a trusting therapeutic educational experience for 10 strangers within an hour of meeting. I've been practicing massage since the 1990's and feel like Rose is an anchor point in Arkansas Massage. I view her as a mentor. I continue to take her courses whether I need CE credits or not" Heather Huber

Participants in this class report profound relaxation as well as a deep sense of grounding, connection, and belonging. They also report profound results with their clients. This is my experience with my clients as well.

I hope you are inspired to join us in the subtle, profound, cutting edge work of BioDynamic Craniosacral Therapy.

In the world we find ourselves in today, it is essential to re-establish a deeper connection and grounding to Hope, not the hope of our small self, that is attached to things working in a certain way, but the Holy Hope which is the trust that it’s possible to manifest your heart’s potential to love, your mind’s potential to be fully awake, to see clearly. To trust your potential to really be intimate with others.

We invite you to come and explore the spaciousness of your Heart, and its longing to unfold into your highest potential.

“Here is what I’ve decided, the very least you can do in your life is figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance, but live right under it’s roof. What I want is so simple I almost can’t say it, Elementary Kindness.”
Barbara Kingsolver

Rose will be leading the sessions.
Throughout the afternoon, Drew will be accompanying Rose through his intuitive application of crystal singing bowls - all of which are aligned with our chakra frequencies.

We have been divinely created, and we are meant to unfold divinely, living from our natural state of the radiance of Love. From this place that we can create loving and safe relationships, contributing to more peace and harmony in our world

Hello Friends:
Our New Year is under way, and yet this season is still pervaded by a sense of stillness. This is a time of slowing down, pausing to rest and let our dreams and intentions for this year gestate. Its called Wintering; bodywork and Craniosacral Therapy is a wonderful way to let ourselves rest deeply and connect into our heart centers, to let ourselves remember what is truly important to us.

A session of Radiance Therapy, grounded in the foundation of BioDynamic Craniosacral Therapy can be very useful to:
Build a more resilient nervous system
Learn to truly rest in a sense of peace and calm
Strengthen your immune system
Connect with your inner guidance system and intuition
Release pain and Restriction
Develop a conscious relationship with your own fluid body and the Breath of Life
"Rose's energy carries calm, love, and safety -- I resonated deeply with it. While I was fearful going in, with all the unknowns of how my body might respond, Rose guided the experience with such gentleness, allowing the tide to roll in as intentional healing. I left feeling truly supported, grateful and open to continuing this journey.
I whole heartedly recommend Rose to anyone seeking not only bodywork, but also a compassionate, healing presence. " Cindy Pace

I am deeply Grateful for the privilege and trust you place in me, in allowing me to contribute to the health and well being of your body mind and spirit.

I hope to see you soon for either an in person session, or alternatively a hands free session either by phone or on messenger.

Yours in Radiant Health

Rose Alisandre, MTI, BCST
