Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy

What is Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST)?

BCST is a form of light touch bodywork that is especially effective for balancing the nervous system. The gentleness and spaciousness that biodynamic work offers can be a powerful support in healing from expressions of trauma, stress and dis-ease in the body. Each of us is uniquely imprinted with the joys, the struggles, and the grittiness of being human. BCST has a unique way of holding space for our body’s memory of experiences that we may not have words to describe, or may not even cognitively understand.

Relational touch

The therapy is grounded in a deep trust in the way that bodies respond to touch itself. In a craniosacral therapy session the practitioner is bringing an embodied, neutral presence to their touch. Listening to the rhythms and expressions of a persons body, the organs, bones, tissues, nervous system — seeing, hearing and accepting the physical archive of the clients experience. The practitioner holds trust in the bodies ability to orient itself towards health, vitality, and homeostasis. Many of us adults have not been touched in such a gentle and attuned way since we were babies, and for many more of us this kind of touch will be entirely new. Often this type of therapy facilitates deep and lasting change as it gives acknowledgement to those experiences held in our tissues that we may not be able to verbalise or logically understand.

  • Meeting and getting the chance to receive Rosie's gifts has been a true blessing. During our sessions she was open, communicative and held space for me to step into the places where healing was being called to. Having someone like Rosie to navigate difficult emotional terrain felt like I was being guided even when the path wasn't clear to me. After weeks of this work, I can honestly say these sessions changed my life.

  • I was experiencing a lot of emotional turbulence and came to Rosie seeking some relief. My session with her was deeply relaxing and it completely cleared out the tension that had built up inside of me. I felt lighter and more at peace almost instantly afterwards, and her nurturing presence made me feel comfortable the whole time. I highly recommend Rosie whenever you need an energetic reset.

  • During my first session with Rosie, I was struck by the experience of being held in such a deep and yet subtle way. It feels like my entire body is being listened to and witnessed. When I settle into that, it provides me with a very comforting sense of safety that supports my ability to relax. It feels like a grounding for the nervous system, assisting to liberate stagnant energy so it can flow freely again. To feel the availability of Rosie’s awareness, present with me and deeply listening to the ebb and flow of my being is always a gratifying experience.
