Life Coaching is an approach to helping others to get the most out of themselves and to achieve what they are truly capable of. The coach’s role is less of one giving advice and much more of one helping the clients to discover the questions they need to ask themselves to uncover their own strengths and solutions.

CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the function of a physiological body system called the CranioSacral system.
The CranioSacral system is comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid which form the fluid-filled sac around the core of the nervous system - surrounding, nourishing, and protecting the brain and spinal cord.
Like the pulse of the cardiovascular system, the CranioSacral system has a rhythm that can be felt throughout the body.
Using a touch generally no heavier than the weight of a small coin, skilled practitioners can monitor this rhythm at key body areas to pinpoint the source of an obstruction or stress.
Once a source has been determined, they can assist the natural movement of the fluid and related soft tissue to help the body self-correct. This simple action is often all it takes to remove a restriction.
Other times, CST may be combined with other complementary therapies to help restore the body to it's optimum functioning level.
Evaluation
A practitioner using CranioSacral Therapy has some key evaluation techniques available to help locate restrictions in the body, among these techniques are...
The CranioSacral Rhythm (CSR)
The CSR is a very subtle rhythmical movement which is transmitted via the muscular, nervous, and fascial systems and can be felt anywhere on the body.
The practitioner feels for the strength, amplitude, and quality of the rhythm in different places on the body to track down areas where the rhythm is impaired - this helps the practitioner find areas where healthy tissue function is restricted.
Fascial evaluation
Connective tissue (fascia) is continuous in the Human body from the top of the head to the bottoms of the feet.
Normally, fascia is free to glide a millimetre or so and maintains a fairly elastic property.
Adhesions, and restrictions can be pinpointed by testing the free gliding ability of the body's fascia - feeling for areas that do not move as easily as others.
Typical treatment session
The treatment itself involves the application of very light forces applied by the therapist's hands.
Limbs may be picked up and moved gently and slowly as the body tissues are allowed to 'unwind' themselves.
A typical session lasts an hour - though half-hour sessions may be better for children and infants.
It's uses
It's far-reaching effects enable CranioSacral Therapy to be useful for a wide scope of health problems, see the above right hand column.
