Benjamin Shield, Ph.D.

Craniosacral Therapy Workshop

This workshop was meticulously designed to introduce Craniosacral Therapy to beginners and refine the skills of experienced practitioners. Our unique approach aims to equip each participant with the fundamental understanding and skills to confidently and effectively apply Craniosacral Therapy.

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) can benefit many conditions and individuals of all ages. We will demonstrate how we can apply CST to help with conditions such as imbalances of the nervous system, accidents and physical trauma, structural issues, behavioral problems, headaches, and sensory disorders.

CST is a gentle, noninvasive treatment in which the therapist aligns with the client’s subtle rhythms. Delicate touch allows the therapist to entrain and balance the Cranial-Sacral system, bones, sutures, and membranes. We will explore the effect CST has on brain function.

Craniosacral therapy involves the analytical and intuitive, the tangible and intangible, the ‘doing’ and ‘non-doing.’ Dr. Hugh Milne describes CST as a timeless gift, a channeling of healing energy guided by the inner eye and delivered from the compassionate heart through sensitive hands. It is the intersection of science, mindfulness, and art.

We understand that mastering any therapy can be a lifelong journey. Our workshop is designed to ensure that each participant leaves with immediately applicable skills that will continue to grow over time. It’s not just a class; it’s a practical investment in your professional development.

Benjamin has practiced Craniosacral Therapy for over 43 years and has taught throughout Europe and the United States, specializing in Pediatric Craniosacral therapy.
