Craniosacral therapy is a healing modality that is difficult to describe; it is one of those things best experienced. I think this is because western medicine and the english language cannot explain how it works effectively. I will do my best to describe it, but with the request that you don't disregard my advice as soon as you read 'energy'. In my experience, a craniosacral practitioner, such as Cocoa, has you lie down and then gently places their hands on your feet (some practitioners do not touch you at all). They try to establish a 'connection' to your energy field. I have had some practitioners connect right away, and some struggle to for the hour. I think it depends on the person. One thing I would recommend is to avoid stimulants such as coffee before going, so that your nervous system is less in flight mode, and more inclined to relax. In a successful session (in my experience) your body will slowly begin to relax, almost giving you the sensation that you are melting/dropping into the table that you are laying on. Your body will begin to release muscles and tension that you didn't actually even know that you were holding. Sometimes these tensions have been held unconsciously for years. Usually the practitioner moves their hands at some point to your sacrum, and later to the base of your skull. Some practitioners can feel blocks in your energy moving, and will focus on a select area, giving your body time to try to work on it. I sometimes picture a blue light traveling around and around my body, slowing down in areas with blockages. Different practitioners take different approaches; some really try to work away at blockages, and some don't want to push the body past its comfort level. This is a healing modality best practiced regularly. I used to find that after I lay down my body would quickly drop into this deep restful state, I pictured it like I was an iphone being plugged in to charge, and I would emerge an hour later feeling drowsy and very calm.

Cocoa is a natural at craniosacral. I am confident in her abilities, and found that my body trusted her and connected with her right away. In fact, I went to her because after having a massage from her she briefly touched my feet and I felt my body really relax immediately. I would highly recommend seeing Cocoa for craniosacral. Go in with an open mind if you haven't done it before. It is like Cocoa facilitates a space where your body can drop into a deeply restful state and repair itself. We live in such a stimulating world these days, it is so important to have this time. Enjoy!
