Nervous System Work

The human nervous system is a vast and complex center of operations. Here, the chemical and electrical impulses which animate our form originate. This system is affected by both inner and outer experiences: every joy, trauma, memory, injury and healing are stored in the central nervous system.

Rachel offers sessions addressing nervous system health. Clients report feeling more centered, at rest in themselves, with increased connection to their inner radiance. These systems of healing connect practitioner and client with the client’s inner wisdom. Rachel has spent many years cultivating the ability to listen deeply to her clients’ systems and follow the innate wisdom that knows what the system needs to heal.

~Polarity

Rachel has studied Polarity with Suzanne Roberts since 2010. Polarity is a system of healing developed by Dr. Randolph Stone, who over a lifetime of medical and esoteric studies managed to bridge the gap between science and spirituality and map how different elemental energies (Source energies) flow through the human system. Polarity utilizes different body contact points, intention, presence work and dialogue to help people connect with their inner radiance, while neutralizing the mind and inviting Source and soul energy to flow freely. From this space of inner and interconnectedness, we find rest and restoration, approaching life from a space of resource rather than exhaustion.

~Craniosacral Therapy

Rachel began practicing Craniosacral Therapy (CST) in 2001. CST accesses the central nervous system (CNS) through gentle, intentional touch, using the spine and cranial bones as levers to access and release membranes and tissues in the CNS. This facilitates the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, which bathes the CNS in a rhythmic flow. CST is deeply relaxing and overlaps in theory and practice with Polarity. CST can be helpful in treating migraines, traumatic brain injury and concussions, TMJ issues, neck and spinal injuries, and various other musculoskeletal issues.

~SomatoEmotional Release

SER is a process that extends from Craniosacral Therapy. SER involves the mind and body (Soma) to help process and release residual physical and emotional trauma energy. It involves light touch , therapeutic imagery, and verbal dialogue to assist the body in releasing stored patterns in the tissues. Clients may experience emotional flow during a session, and significant insights and memories. They often find relief from physical pain and tension that results from held emotion in the tissues.
