CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

Dr. Heather is trained in craniosacral therapy, myofascial release, and visceral manipulation.

These are very light-touch techniques and can be extremely helpful for the body.

Cranial Sacral Therapy: I began my craniosacral education with the Upledger Insitute in 2008 after receiving profound healing as a child and then again during Chiropractic college. Since 2008, I have had many other teachers, including the wonderful Carol Gray in Portland and Dr. Lisa Upledger in Florida. I love cranial work in that it is a patient-led process and I simply use a gentle touch to follow the patient’s tissues and help facilitate release Because of this, it is a very safe technique, even for babies hours old and people very sick.

Myofascial release: Myofascial release uses the fascia (connective tissue) as a guide to release muscles, joints, organ tension, etc.

Visceral Manipulation: VM focuses on freeing the organs and digestive tract to function optimally through specific hands-on work on the abdomen.
