Fluid Body Fascia & Craniosacral Arts
Helping you release deep tension, transform pain, and feel calm seen, and empowered.

Change is Possible!

My name is Christine. During our time together we connect with and welcome the body’s natural wisdom — the quiet rhythms, subtle tides, and deep connective tissues that hold your story. Through Fascial Integration and Craniosacral Therapy we explore painful and restricted tissues with curiosity and deep listening. We invite your system to gently unwind, re-connect and re-balance - all at your own pace in the ease of your own home.
Gentle hands-on work that has a profound effect: creating a pathway for the nervous system to find its way home, for the body to re-organize itself and for energy to flow to nourish your cells and your soul.
We take the time to meet your body where it's at, acknowledge what it has been through and recognize that we are a whole living matrix that has the wisdom to self-adjust and heal itself
-
working with your unique system, not against it
-
offering touch, space, impulses and movement that your body can integrate gently
-
creating safety and drawing on collaboration, exploration and feedback to foster sustainable change
Fascial Integration
Craniosacral Therapy
Approaching the body from a fascial perspective propels us into a new level of creating change in the body, relieve chronic tension and deepen awareness of how the body, emotions and energy intertwine. Fascia is the connective tissue that weaves through every structure of our body, the living crystalline matrix and conductor of energy that encapsules all of our muscles, organs, bones down to nerves, blood vessels and cells. When it’s restricted, we feel tight, often pain and disconnected from ourselves, others and the cosmos. The goal is to soften and rehydrate the tissues, to alleviate congestion and restore ease of movement and flow of universal energy. Each Session is a dialogue with your body. Meeting it as it is with mindful presence, intuitive listening, and skillful touch to unwind tension, free stuck energy and help you reconnect with your natural sense of ease and aliveness. It’s not about following a fixed protocol but working with your body’s unique patterns and needs. I listen for areas of restriction and gently invite them to soften and re-integrate within the fascial matrix. This may be supported by techniques such as myofascial release, fascial decompression (long sustained pressure) and elements of structural integration but also fascia-regenerating tools such as the Fascia Releazer to harness the effectiveness of shearing motions and vibration to release adhesions and encourage the flow of blood and lymph. You may be invited to take part in the process — bringing awareness, small movements, or gentle resistance. Fascial Integration offers powerful support in times of stress, healing, or transition. At the same time your body can remember its natural fluid state while creating space for lymph, blood and nutrients to nourish the millions of cells in your body. When we engage on the level of fascia, we access a field of possibilities that lies beyond mechanical paradigm of fixing and forcing. We are *touching* the interface of how we regulate, maintain function and connect with the energy of the Universe. At this level we facilitate change that is deep, whole and multi-facetted: 𖦹 Restoring ease after injury, surgery, or patterns of holding 𖦹 Encouraging natural alignment, posture, coordination and freedom of movement 𖦹 Soothing pain, stiffness, and strain from overuse or tension 𖦹 Deepening awareness and connection with your body 𖦹 Calming the nervous system and supporting emotional release But it’s also a form of continuously caring for our body to ensure flexibility, mental clarity and healthy energy flow. That’s why my work doesn’t stop at the table. I also see myself as a coach — someone who helps those interested in understanding their own fascia and how to care for it. My goal is to empower you with simple, practical tools, movements, and self-awareness practices so you can continue supporting your body long after our session ends. In this way, this work becomes more than something that’s done to you — it becomes something you can actively participate in. Over time, you’ll develop a deeper sense of what your body needs and how you can support it in simple but powerful ways. During sessions you can remain fully clothed or to undress to your comfort level so we can work directly on the skin. Some techniques are most effective with direct contact, while others are equally powerful through clothing. Sessions are collaborative and supportive of your needs and honor what feels right for you.
Gentle, trauma-informed Craniosacral Therapy rooted in presence and attunement — a space where your body and nervous system can unwind, rest, and begin to restore balance at their own pace. Craniosacral Therapy invites your body into deep rest. Through a light, listening touch that is both, intuitive and anatomically precise, we connect with your body’s natural rhythms — the subtle movements of the craniosacral fluid often referred to as the breath of life. In this quiet conversation between touch and tissue, the body’s innate intelligence begins to reveal itself. Old patterns of tension can release and healing unfold naturally. Rather than focusing on symptoms or disease, Craniosacral Therapy supports the underlying system that holds you together — strengthening your inner resources so that vitality, flow, and coherence can return. Many people describe feeling deeply relaxed, warm, and spacious after a session, as if their whole being has remembered how to breathe again. The benefits of Craniosacral Therapy are vast, such as 𖦹 A calmer, more balanced nervous system 𖦹 Improved sleep, energy, and focus 𖦹 Relief from pain, anxiety, or depression 𖦹 Support in recovery after injury or accident 𖦹 Release of physical and emotional tension 𖦹 A deeper sense of embodied awareness Throughout life, our bodies adapt to layers of stress, trauma, and injury woven into muscles, fascia, bones, and fluids. When met with gentle, non-doing presence, these layers can soften and untangle. The body begins to reorganize itself from within, restoring circulation, fluidity, and communication through the nervous, immune, and lymphatic systems. My role in this is to offer a mirroring presence — a safe space where your system feels seen, heard, and supported to self-correct and re-integrate. Through this process, many people rediscover an inner stillness and renewed connection to their life force. Fascial Unwinding, a often neglected aspect of this work, allows areas of the body where energy is “stuck” to gently reawaken and re-integrate with the whole. By following the body’s subtle movements to points of release and stillness, old trauma and restrictions can resolve and reorganize. Sessions take place with you lying fully clothed and comfortably supported. You may drift into a restful state or become more aware of sensations, images, or memories as your system releases what it’s ready to let go of. Gentle therapeutic dialogue may naturally arise and I might offer words and reflection to support what your body is expressing. These moments of shared awareness can help integrate physical sensations with emotional or energetic insight and deepen the healing process. I offer in-home sessions so you can receive without the stress of travel - or from afar through distant work where the same attunement and principles apply. This work happens with the person remaining fully dressed.

Fascial Integration and Craniosacral Therapy help

I have helped and supported others on their journey with


Each person’s body responds in its own way to Fascia and Craniosacral work. After a session you might be feeling a deep sense of calm, spaciousness, or lightness in your body. You might have a clearer sense of parts of your body that were not 'on the map' of your awareness before. It’s also common to notice subtle shifts over several days as your system integrates the changes.
You may experience:
-
A feeling of deep relaxation or sleepiness
-
Heightened body awareness or sensitivity
-
Improved mobility or ease of movement
-
Gentle emotional release or a sense of balance
-
Temporary tiredness, warmth, or mild soreness as tissues adjust
Sessions | Working Together
I am mobile! Being in the familiarity of one's own space often feels very supportive. Sometimes, one session is all that is needed to feel more calm, alleviate pain and shift a pattern.
Committing to a series of sessions allows us to move deeper and support your body and mind in integrating changes over a period of time.
I am also here to provide consistent unwavering support long-term to help you build a foundation for greater health or help you recover from injury or post surgery.


Healing is rarely one-dimensional
Our bodies, emotions, thoughts and experiences are deeply connected, and sometimes different approaches are needed to support that process. While craniosacral and fascia therapy are at the heart of my hands-on work, there are gentle other fields we can draw on when they can best support your needs. Some of them, are often intuitively and seamlessly weave into the living canvas of a session.

Meet Christine
My own journey began when I started to become aware of how confused and disconnected I was from my own body. In a two step-forward one step back kind of fashion, things have been changing. The living question that's always there is: What is needed to bring back the flow?
Almost everything I have learned comes from my personal experience - the revelations, skills and insights I have discovered through my own process, my experience working with others and trusting what I see and hear intuitively. I consider it my primary form of training and it's what I feel most enabled by in my ability to respond to the spoken and unspoken needs of those working with me.
I also cherish the kind-hearted teachers and the experience and wisdom that they have imparted on me in ways that has awakened growth edges, uncovered gifts and helped me in supporting others.I offer qualities resembling a marriage of Neptune and Saturn - of empathy, intuition, sensitivity and playfulness with down-to-earth realness, adaptability and precision.
My calling and journey is embodying the laws of nature and deepen my connection with the living matrix (fascia) inside to invite all realms of experience to integrate and whole-heartedly call this human body home. To offer and receive gentle impulses in a safe container to create space for energy to flow and for the body, mind and soul to dance.
I believe that
-
the secret is to not be fixated on a particular outcome but to step into relationship with our symptoms and by noticing and acknowledging the sensations, thoughts and emotions we are experiencing in the moment with compassion and curiosity. When we engage in this way, our conscious presence becomes the fuel for the transformation of patterns of pain and dysfunction.
-
We also need to strengthen the underlying system, the body as a whole, to a greater state of health so the body has more resources available to transform dysfunction and enable healing.
-
When we experience acute pain, the priority is to address it and to get out of pain.
Reaching out to someone can feel like a big step. I'm your ally and my priority is to provide a safe and collaborative space where you feel heard and supported in your ability to choose.
