Julie was introduced to Cranial Sacral Therapy at the beginning of her Physical Therapy career. After years of study and integrating different styles of this modality- it is part of every session. The cranial sacral system is the nervous system. At the heart of this modality is the capacity of the practitioner to attune to the whole being and invite the nervous system to deeply settle. From a place of rest, our bodies and whole being can communicate what the priority is and the dance begins!
Julie embodies a deep trust in her own body wisdom and invites others to open to their own self discovery. This relational style of therapy empowers clients to show up and trust their own capacity for healing and balance. She weaves in energy work and psychosocial approaches- the Satir Model, somatic emotional release, somatic experiencing and Hakomi
The process of conceiving, pregnancy, birth and the postnatal time creates major changes in your physical body and psyche. Amongst it all there can be a wide range of experiences -excitement, anxiety, sleep deprivation, deep love, pain, chaos etc.
I can support your physical wellbeing as you prepare for birth and your recovery after with pelvic floor rehabilitation, manual therapy for spinal and pelvic alignment, visceral mobilization and cranial sacral therapy. I will also hold space and invite you into a more embodied relationship with your pelvic floor, root chakra and all aspects of your being as you embark on this journey to motherhood.
