Learn to release restrictions in the craniosacral system, which surrounds the brain and spinal cord. This light-touch therapy improves the central nervous system, allowing it to better relieve stress and strengthen resistance to disease. SomatoEmotional Release is a therapeutic process that expands on the principles of CranioSacral Therapy to help rid the mind and body of the residual effects of trauma. Joint research efforts by Dr. John Upledger and biophysicist Dr. Zvi Karni led to the discovery that the body often retains (rather than dissipates) physical forces. This is often the result of an accident, injury, or emotional trauma. The dysfunctional area is isolated, creating what is called an “energy cyst”. Although a reasonably healthy body can adapt to “energy cysts,” extra energy is required to perform normal bodily functions. As time passes, the adaptive pattern of the body loses its effectiveness. Symptoms begin to appear and, over time, become more difficult to suppress. The SomatoEmotional Release process requires extreme sensitivity on the part of the therapist and a positive attitude and trust from the client/patient.  Application of CranioSacral Therapy for Chiropractors  BioAquatic Advanced and Dolphin Exploration  BioAquatic Exploration - Advanced CranioSacral Therapy  BioAquatic Exploration - CranioSacral Therapy II  BioAquatic Exploration - Ocean Therapy I  BioAquatic Exploration - Shared Connections  BioAquatic Exploration - SomatoEmotional Release II  Circles, Cycles, and Rhythms  CranioSacral Applications to Obstetrics 1  CranioSacral Techniques for Estheticians  CranioSacral Therapy and Dysfunctions of the Brain and Spinal Cord  CranioSacral Therapy and the Cardiac and Pulmonary Systems  CranioSacral Therapy and the Digestive and Gastrointestinal Systems  CranioSacral Therapy and the Endocrine System  CranioSacral Therapy I  CranioSacral Therapy II  CranioSacral Therapy Teaching Assistant Meeting  CST Technique Certification Exam Preparation Session  CSTI/O Tutorial  Dolphin Assisted Therapy Intensive Program  Equine CranioSacral Techniques I  Equine CranioSacral Techniques II  HANDLE Introductory Course  Overview of CranioSacral Therapy  Pediatric Clinical Symposium  Sensory Integration for CranioSacral Therapists  ShareCare  SomatoEmotional Release II  The Brain Speaks  Unwinding Meridians: Applying Acupuncture Principles to CranioSacral Therapy  Use of CranioSacral Therapy with Wolves and Wild Canids  SomatoEmotional Release I  Advanced CranioSacral Therapy  Advanced CranioSacral Therapy II  Advanced III CranioSacral Therapy  CranioSacral Therapy For Pediatrics  CranioSacral Therapy and the Immune Response  CranioSacral Therapy and the Reversal of Pathogenic Processes  CranioSacral Therapy 1 Review  CranioSacral Therapy 2 Review  Clinical Symposiums with Drs.
