What is Body Counseling?

Craniosacral Therapy uses light touch to effect the health of your nervous system.

At Good River we provide conscious, intelligent, vibrant regard for our clients with loving, respectful & professional care.  The practice involves a communication between the practitioner and client that facilitates trust and enhances access to the bodies cellular memory of its trauma.  We use healing touch to direct the energy of your minds focus toward the residual expression of past traumas held in the tissues as tension.  This touch is not manipulative but it is supporting and may offer suggestion to the tissues, helping them to find the easiest pathway to change. We are consistently searching for what is termed fulcrums. A fulcrum is the point from which the greatest amount of change is possible from the least amount of input or influence. 


Your body is consistently working on its own healing, the question is not whether you can heal, it really revolves around can you keep up with the demands of your body to heal while not actively allowing your body to engage in its natural processing of the bi-products of past metabolism. Whether your body is attempting to repair from an injury, or suffering from a consistent demand for maintenance due to the draining of our energy with high stress, poor nutrition, limited movement and deficient sleep, and of course the barrage of stimulants that have become common place habit for many of us in order to keep up with the pace of our minds.  With all of the stresses that our bodies and our minds suffer they are in constant need of attention and repair.  And most of us do not give our bodies the energy and attentive focus that it requires to process through its growing back log. And many of us don not have access to the concentrated loving support of others to help them heal and more often than not our loved ones are caught up in the drama of our stresses and have a hard time being able to properly give support as a result of their piece of the dynamic. This could be as simple the need to maintain activities of daily living like, meals or housework. Or it can be because the others are simply preoccupied with their own backlog to be able to offer as much as may be necessary for significant change to occur. 


The process of body counseling involves taking a break from your world, from your stresses, and enter into a space of peace and loving focus on the needs that you truly have.  In a body counseling session we support your body in attending to its issues. It begins an unraveling process where your body will release from the binds of past traumas. And as we continue to work together the path to your process will become apparent. And sure enough, the change comes, maybe when we least expected it, maybe in its own time, but inevitably once the seed of change is planted and properly tended to a sprout will break through and release the beauty or change.
