Cornwall Craniosacral

My name is Doremi Hayward Vaardal and I am a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist working from my treatment room in Lelant on Monday and Wednesday mornings and all day Friday and from Mudita House at 43 Morrab Road in Penzance on Thursday mornings. I trained at the Karuna Institute in Devon with Franklyn Sillls and graduated in 2012, I am registered with the Craniosacral Therapy Association of the UK.

My journey to become a craniosacral therapist began as a client and I still attend my own therapist regularly to maintain balanced health. Craniosacral therapy is a gentle and non invasive modality that works to encourage the innate health and well being that exists within us all.

My focus is not on fixing or eliminating the symptoms my clients may feel but rather working towards allowing the clients own body to resolve the causes of these symptoms. Craniosacral therapy is a profound and gentle form of bodywork, it is able to address the client on both a physical and emotional level and as such can be extremely valuable in allowing fixed patterns within the body to begin to shift by working with the inherent wisdom within the system of every client.

I work by listening through my hands to the flow of fluids, the matrix of tissues and the scaffolding of bones that comprises the body. In so doing the clients body can show me areas of compression, torsion or coagulation and we can work together to allow space and stillness in order for these to release.

My commitment is to presence and compassion.

What to expect:
Each session lasts approximately one hour during which the client lies fully clothed on my treatment table as I place my hands lightly on them. During the first session with a new client I will take a case history and discuss any symptoms.

Cost:
Adult sessions are £40 and children are £30

Who can it help:
Craniosacral therapy is excellent for dissipating acute and chronic pain and symptoms that may have been endured for many years such as back pain and migraine. It can help to support those suffering through serious illness and treatment by providing space for the body to find stillness. It reduces stress and increases a well being and can help with low lying but ongoing issues such as insomnia, muscle and joint pain in addition to unresolved physical and emotional trauma.
Craniosacral therapy supports the nervous system as a whole by improving the flow of cerebral spinal fluid so that the brain and spinal cord are well lubricated - we all know what happens to our cars when they run our of oil!
