I have struggled with chronic health issues since childhood and have explored just about every healing modality imaginable in search of relief. While I had previously tried chiropractic and craniosacral therapies with limited results, I was assured that the Biodynamic Craniosacral approach Dr. Feldman uses was different—and it truly is. Dr. Feldman took the time to deeply tune into my body’s unique rhythms and imbalances. Through his presence and skill, I was able to access a profound state of relaxation where my body could begin to find and use its inner resources, to restore and rebalance itself. Almost immediately, I felt a sense of lightness—like years of stress, anxiety, and worry had been gently lifted. The effects were not just momentary, and the transformation was not just internal. Even a week later, people commented that I was glowing. I walked away with a lasting sense of peace, one that I can return to whenever I feel myself slipping out of balance, by using the internal resources he helped me find.

Doing this work, while there are undoubted physiological benefits, I have also found the emotional psychological discoveries to be especially rewarding and healing. I have felt unnamed emotional blockages which then manifest physically, begin to dissolve. I can feel how these blockages, compromising our psychological system, and thus making us too overwhelmed or fragile to courageously confront life’s inevitable difficulties, which further fuels unhealthy emotions, habits and views. Releasing these in Craniosacral Therapy has led to greater ease, and even courage and resilience in times of hardship. Some of the physical sensations have been bursts of tingling electricity throughout the body, which for me has a bit of an edge to it. Deepening relaxation and regulation of breathing has also come up. The modern world provides a challenge to physical and mental integration, i.e. wellbeing and stability. I think this work will open up new areas within people for those who decide to explore it.
