Cranio-Sacral Core Series
The Core Series establishes the foundation for Craniosacral work. It provides instruction and practice in the fundamental skills of stillness and presence, as well as hands-on techniques, anatomy and methodology of this work. Students learn to perceive the cranial wave, mid-tide, and long tide. They learn to use the tides fluidly to address localized as well as systemic conditions and client concerns. Students practice activities to develop their communication skills, intuition, clinical reasoning and ability to perceive the client's overall healing process. Students complete the Core Series as a cohort, developing bonds that allow them to explore this work deeply and safely. Students receive a certificate of completion upon satisfying the requirements of the program.
