Biodynamic Cranial Therapy
Biodynamic Craniosacral therapy, or simply Cranial Therapy, is a non-invasive, way into the body’s inherent healing intelligence. Direct and powerful, the approach is gaining momentum within the healing arts. Cranial Therapy can be called upon to help issues occurring in the physical, emotional, and/or spiritual bodies. Inertia or disturbances created by unresolved trauma, can become encapsulated within our bodies. Through profound listening, observation, and stillness, the inherent health within a disturbance can become the source of resolution. Harmony and balance can thus be reestablished within and throughout the physical, spiritual, and emotional bodies.

Biodynamic Massage
Biodynamic Massage, developed by Todd Jackson, is a combination of deep tissue massage with biodynamic cranial therapy. It is an integration of patient, deep pressure and acute attention to subtle energetic changes throughout the entire body. This patient approach allows patterns of tension and stress, that have long been held within the multi dimensional layers of the body, a chance to unwind deeply into its source, often resulting in relief and freshness in those areas.
The application of Biodynamic Massage is generally slow and deliberate, and though deep pressure is applied, it is at a level that is comfortable for the client. Donna will stay with a particularly density until there is a felt change within the tissues buoyancy. Often relieving changes are made throughout the entire body due to this localized attention and global awareness.
