There’s a lot more to cranio sacral practice than vault holds and energy cysts.  The reality of helping people who are sick and in pain can be very challenging and confronting.  Cranio sacral therapy can be lonely isolated work with a big space to have your confidence dwindle.

Do any of the following sound familiar?

• In your practice do you sometimes wonder, ‘Did I really feel that or am I making it up?’
• Do you feel you can really leave your “stuff” outside your treatment room?
• Even though you know, “No one can heal anyone else.” do you still feel responsible?
• Do you have trouble with the, “Well, what’s wrong with me?” question?
• Do you have people who come for one treatment then never come back?
• Do you feel you could be getting better results in your practice?

If you answered “YES!” to any of these questions, don’t worry you’re NOT alone. In fact, that list of questions was created from years of personal experience in my own practice and from working with other cranio sacral therapists and students.

This Masterclass DVD series covers all these questions and a lot more.  There are 7 DVD’s with more than 9 hours of viewing.
