CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of the craniosacral system and thus the whole body on physical, mental and emotional levels. It is based on the principles of osteopathy and the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. 

We use a very light touch to release restrictions in the body, improve fluid dynamics and balance the nervous system. We aim to improve overall health by addressing physical, emotional and mental challenges.

“After the tongue tie division we still had some feeding issues and a lot of tension. Barbara was recommended to us by a friend. We were a bit sceptical because we didn't know much about cranio. But she was so gentle with our boy and he almost instantly became much calmer and relaxed. She also help us tweak the feeding. We had three sessions and that made all the difference!”

“Our toddler used to be really irritable and couldn't sleep well. We heard about CST and decided to give it a try. It was amazing. After a few sessions she became more relaxed, less fussy and started sleeping through the night. Barbara is very gentle and knowledgeable. We are so happy that we found her and highly recommend her services to everyone!”

“Our 5 year old son has autism. He has been on homeopathy treatment for a few months and we saw big improvements. We knew Barbara does also CST so we decided to give it a go too. The changes were gradual but profound. He became calmer, started sleeping better, much less sensory issues. So cranio is now regular part of his treatment plan alongside the remedies...”
