Well....I have a lot of skills but it seems like blogging isn't one of them!! 3 Years since the last one! Well I won't write much, just to say that on my facebook page (see the top left corner button) I do share articles i've been reading so you have a bit more insight into my work and I do that a lot more often than here! Thanks to the easy share button :)

I've been very busy in my clinic, enjoying every minute of walking alongside you in your healing journeys, growing together and finding peace within all of life's struggles. Thank you for your trust in me.

I have also been studying as always! Bach flower remedies have been of great interest to me lately, alongside resource tapping and relaxation techniques to help you relax on the table and go into a deeper state of flow. As always the body and it's immense and beautiful complexity is always part of my weekly study routine. The depths....I guess i'm a deep internal sea diver in the end.

Love to you all

Here are a few lines of some gorgeous poetry that really touch me and help me in my practice and understanding of what cranio sacral is:

Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.”

'Glue ear' in babies and other child illnesses

2/23/2015

Children and babies often suffer from various ailments, including ear glue or infection. Largely these troubles are related to the eustacian tube a thin passageway between two major bones of the cranium that allow for drainage. Cranio-sacral therapy can help to mobilise this area and allow for better drainage and also to help the immune system to recalibrate to prevent further reccurence of the issue.
For a fantastic review of how cranio sacral therapy can help with this issues related to children and babies I reccomend this blog on cranio-sacral therapy.

If you have any questions related to birth and cranio-sacral please don't hesitate to contact me via the 'contact' page.

Cranio-Sacral therapy as a complement to your existing regime of health and well-being.

Occasionally I have patients concerned that they should not be using cranio-sacral therapy in tandem with other kinds of self care (traditional medicine, acupuncture, psychotherapy, re-birthing, osteopathy etcetera). What I would like to say is that cranio-sacral therapy is extremely supportive of other therapies and is in no way contraindicated as used along side these other traditions which have their own place and value in our care.

Of course there is the concern for some about costs, and I understand that completely - I guess it's about finding the best combination that one needs for oneself to be able to get to a better place of well-being with the resources you have available. As a therapist I am open to discussing reduced prices for situations such as this.

As an example I have found personally that psychotherapy done alongside cranio-sacral is particularly profound as it allows both the individual to express verbally with someone their situation and also to process that experience through the body to allow for deeper levels of release.
Another example is someone undergoing surgery, thank goodness modern medicine is able to help us overcome some of the illnesses we previously would not have been able to survive, cranio-sacral's role is again one that is greatly supportive and allows the body to heal faster and cope with the necessary but essentially invasive procedure that it has undergone and the patient to integrate the experience not only the physical (shock and tissue damage) but also emotional (stress, fear, anger etc) aspects of undergoing surgery.

So don't hesitate to combine, it does wonders! And feel free to contact me if you have any questions about whether cranio-sacral can be useful for you!
All the best and stay well,
April Dixon

My first Blog

Welcome all to my blog on cranio-sacral therapy. It is not my intention to talk much here personally about the practice but rather to provide links to interesting articles and perhaps ideas surrounding this treatment for well-being and health that will hopefully give you an insight into the profound and far reaching effects of cranio-sacral therapy.

Here are two links I have foud incredibly interesting on cranio, one is more for practitioners and those interested in body work and understanding the human organism but includes a nice meditation. It is all about the Liver! The energy powerhouse of the body, an incredible organ that may surprise you in it's size and functions, and also in how much it is interconnected throughout the body!

The Liver is The Most Amazing Organ in the Univer…: http://youtu.be/_snhMkz01Zo

The second is an article that shows how cranio-sacral can be useful in helping those who have suffered from addictions in healing the addiction and the trauma, and also in helping those who have lived with addicts (either as a spouse, a child of an addict or as a concerned friend) cope and let go of some of the more emotional aspects of what they have lived through - which as we cranio-sacral therapist (amongst others) know, can be felt very much as tensions or aches in the tissues of the patient.

A very happy and healthy 2015 to you all!
