Cranial Sacral Therapy For Kids Dubai

What is Biodynamic Cranial for Kids?

Biodynamic cranial sacral therapy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that helps to bring your child’s nervous system into a place of calm and balance to support healing. 
Kids today are much more in tune with their emotions and needs which can be empowering. However, this awareness can sometimes make life challenging for them as they feel so deeply they often don’t know what to do with these big emotions. 
As a result we are seeing an increase in emotional dis-regulation, anxiety and depression in the younger generation. However, kids do not have the years of trauma and suppression that adults hold on to, therefore, their ability to heal is much faster.

If we can help to support the younger generation now, the world will become a much better place for future generations.

What does a session of Biodynamic Cranial for Kids look like?

A session is done lying down, fully clothed.
The session follows the pace of your child’s needs. Nothing is forced.
Your child has the choice to remain silent, to have light chit-chat or to talk on a deeper level regarding emotions and experiences impacting them.
Whichever route we go kids heal so fast, the difference in their systems at the end of session from when we started is profound.

Working with kids with additional needs:

The beauty of BCST is that often our children with additional needs are very sensitive. To lie on the table and receive cranial may feel too overwhelming for them. 
In this case, mum/dad/care giver is invited to lie on the table and receive a cranial session.
 With BCST we work with the relational field, imagine everyone in the room inside a bubble, this means that all the people in the room are receiving and feeling the benefits of cranial. So in the case where mum/dad/care giver is lying on the table and the child is in the room, both care giver and child are receiving cranial and will feel the benefit.
It is not necessary to put hands on the child to be able to receive the benefits.

How to explain to your child what BCST is :

You know sometimes you have a bad headache, or a sore tummy or you feel stressed out.
Well, Cranial Sacral Therapy is a way to help your body feel better. It's like a special kind of massage for your insides that helps you to release the tension in your head, neck and spine.

You know sometimes you feel very sad or angry, cranial helps you to release your emotions so you can feel more calm and happier.

The therapist will use a very gentle touch, like the soft touch of a butterfly's wings, to help your body relax and release any tension that might be causing you discomfort. It's a very calming and soothing therapy that can help you feel more relaxed and comfortable.

And the best part is, you get to lie down and relax while the therapist works their magic!
You can talk if you want to but if you don’t want to talk that’s also ok.
