Guest columnist Sonja Alcon describes her experience with Cranial Sacral Therapy for SilentTao.com.
After more than 20 years I still love what I do. I have seen hundreds of people come with headaches, back pain, anxiety, stress, tooth pain, digestive disorders, whip-lash, learning disabilities… and so many other ailments that diminish quality of life for us all. I found my healing skills could help most of them.
The body wants to be well and often just needs a hand. Gently “listening with the hands” is how we work in Cranial Sacral Therapy (CST). We use it when working with the subtle energy of the inner organs, muscles, joints, connective tissue… all part of the whole person, just different aspects.
Sonja Alcon, Soft Touch Cranial Sacral Therapist and Teacher
Over the years, as my sensitivity improved, I found that I no longer had to think. My hands just seemed to move in the body’s energy field, balancing and clearing the aura. It is as if the hands are guided by the unseen universe – the Tao.
I learned from many masters and feel profound gratitude to them all. The one who had the most profound impact on me was French Osteopath Alain Gehin. He was in his mid-seventies when I met him and had never stopped learning. He studied with native shamans in the Amazon, gurus from India and masters from China. He was an advanced student of Tai Chi.
The energy from his touch was so deep and gentle. He released physical, energetic and emotional blockages, treating the whole person, not just the body. He combined his training in the energetic arts with a deep knowledge of anatomy and technique in his teaching. He set a shining example for me of how to be a healer.
We live in a world with an overwhelming amount of information; a large part of it is negative news. We are surrounded by toxins in the air, water and food every day. Our daily lives are filled with extreme spiritual and emotional stress. Our system of Soft Touch Cranial Sacral Therapy is a way to cleanse our body’s fields.
It could be called “Returning to Our True Self” treatment.
