A beautiful articulation of the delicate yet specific balance of craniosacral bodywork.

Yesterday we talked about the pelvic and sphenoid bones, those twin ink-blot shapes at opposite ends of the central axis. Today, I want to touch on how we actually begin to balance them in bodywork, not by forcing symmetry, but by clearing the line of conversation between the bowl and the butterfly.

I think of the pelvis and sphenoid as two tuning forks on the same string. The string is the dural tube, the deep fascial midline, the pressure system that runs from the pelvic floor to the cranial base. Our work is not to hammer either fork, but to reduce the noise around the string. Practically, that means starting with breath and the diaphragm. Free the respiratory diaphragm with rib, sternum, and upper abdominal work. Invite motion in the pelvic diaphragm with sacral holds, gentle pelvic floor softening, and SI joint decompression. When the diaphragms begin to move like coordinated tides, the cranial base often starts to reorganize on its own.

From there, I like to pair contact. One hand on the sacrum, the other on the occiput or sphenoid line, feeling for rhythm and drag rather than trying to create change. Craniosacral style holds, sacral traction, and still point inductions can reduce dural tension across the whole axis. Intraoral and jaw work add another powerful lever. Releasing the pterygoids, maxilla, and palate reduces strain at the sphenoid, and that shift frequently echoes down through the spine into sacral position and tone.

Add fluid movement to the mix. Abdominal and visceral fascial work improves glide around the mesenteries and reduces internal drag on the dural and fascial core. Gentle spinal unwinding, suboccipital release, and thoracolumbar fascial work help the message travel without distortion.

The technique is real and specific, but the spirit stays the same. We are not making the pelvis obey the sphenoid or the sphenoid obey the pelvis. We are restoring their signal line. When the static drops, these two distant shapes begin to resonate again, and the body recognizes its own symmetry without being told.

In a busy world, quiet moments matter 🌿
Time in nature, space to breathe, and pockets of stillness help children (and grown-ups) settle, notice, and reconnect. Sometimes the most important thing we can offer is simply… silence.

Living through a cancer diagnosis and treatment or any kind of trauma is a profound life disruption. When treatment ends—or even while it’s ongoing—many people describe a confusing mix of relief and fear. Relief that the body has endured. Fear that it could happen again. This tension often lea...

📢 How Do Your Organs Influence Your Emotions and Decisions?

🌿 Did you know that your gut, heart, and other internal organs are constantly communicating with your brain—shaping your thoughts, emotions, and even your sense of self?

🧠 According to neuroscience research, this “interoceptive” feedback influences behavior, memory, mood, and motivation. It even affects how we perceive fear, safety, and connection to others.

✨ Manual therapy, especially approaches like Visceral Manipulation and CranioSacral Therapy, works directly with these pathways—supporting the body’s ability to regulate from the inside out.

👉 By gently addressing restrictions in the organs, fascia, and autonomic nervous system, these therapies help restore internal balance and improve emotional and cognitive function. This is more than just muscle work—it's about optimizing the whole-body communication network.

Support Your Organs' Silent Dance

Our organs are in constant, subtle motion with every breath we take, every step we make. Visceral Manioulation (VM) helps to release emotional and physical blockages, encouraging this natural, healthy mobility. When organs move freely, they can perform their vital functions without strain.

Rebalance and Restore

By promoting organ mobility, VM can lead to a more balanced nervous system, open detoxification pathways and support whole-body healing. It's a holistic practice that acknowledges the interconnectedness of all your systems, creating an environment for profound restoration and well-being.
