"For My Son Peter ~

We noticed significant changes in him after every session.  He was calm, happy and would be smiling.  Began initiating conversations.  Andy educated us and provided great tips on how to help him with sensory issues and concentration."

What is Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) is a gentle but powerful healing modality that allows your body to access its own healing capacities.  Using a light touch the BCST practitioner attunes to your body's subtle movements.  This seemingly simple process of deep listening and orienting to health rather than pathology engages your innate healing capacities.  While the therapist becomes attuned to the health in your body, you too will become more fully aware of the health within.  Learn more about BCST please visit our Resources Page.

How does BCST work

About one hundred years ago, osteopathic doctors noticed a subtle cyclic movement in the body, that had been previously undetected.  They found that when the movement has its normal full range of motion, the health of the patient improved, but when the movement is obscured or blocked, patient conditions declined.  Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy works by creating optimum support for this natural movement, enabling it to re-gain its original influence on overall health.  While the effectiveness of the method has been well-established, the mechanism for the movement has not been scientifically explained.  It is the subject of ongoing inquiry by practitioners, authors and researchers.

 

 

What to expect during your session

BIODYNAMIC CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY (BCST) - 75 Minute Session

 

During your session you will be fully clothed face up or on your side and resting comfortably on a massage table.  Please wear comfortable clothing.  A light touch is made at your head and base of your spine and other areas.  This touch helps your body to relax and come into a space of calmness and peace.  Clients report after the session feeling a gentle and natural release of stress, resolution of acute and chronic pain and an overall sense of well being.  This Therapy is offered for adults and children.

 

Focus during sessions is on health in the body.  By listening to health, much like a counselor might listen to words using a light sensitive touch a sense of wholeness and health emerges.  After sessions people often say they feel joyful, calm and organized.  Often people sleep better and enjoy a sense of integrated wholeness.  Andy loves giving cranial sessions and seeing people feel healthy and good again.

 

For those suffering with severe pain, Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy and education is available.  Please watch the PEMF video below for an introduction to the PEMF Therapy.

 

 

"...All I can say is - it was amazing!  In the days and weeks following my first session, my energy was through the roof, my mental concentration was so clear, and I felt more solid emotionally..."

~ Susan W

 

"For My Son Peter ~

Peter was 12 when we saw Andy.  He has ADHD, on the autistic spectrum and at the time was depressed.  We noticed significant changes in him after every session.  He was calm, happy and would be smiling.  Began initiating conversations.  Andy educated us and provided great tips on how to help him with sensory issues and concentration.  He looked forward to his sessions and would even tell me that he needed to go see her.  She is fantastic!

 

"Craniosacral Therapy is amazing for my body and spirit.  Andy has a big heart and helped me overcome stress that I felt in my life.  I entered her office feeling exhausted and would leave with the tension lifted.  She is dedicated to her patients."

~ Kate C

 

"I didn't know much about Craniosacral but I've struggled with low energy and brain fog for awhile now and so I thought I'd give it a go.  All I can say is- it was amazing!  In the days and weeks following my first session, my energy was through the roof, my mental concentration was so clear, and I felt more solid emotionally.  Little menial tasks that before would've seemed so taxing were absolutely nothing to do.  And Andy Bayard is such a warm hearted, generous, open and fun-loving healer with a wicked sense of humor.  She is so accepting of wherever you are coming from- she put all of my fears and concerns at ease.  I would highly recommend giving craniosacral  a try, especially with Andy!"

~ Shelly

"Very professional!  I felt at ease being introduced to Craniosacral Therapy.  Understanding the presence in spirit and listening, enriching the experience through education.  She has created a warm and welcoming sacred space to practice.  I felt comfortable during the session.  After the session I felt refreshed and rested really well that evening.   Andy, thank you for a very positive Craniosacral Therapy introduction!"

~ Robbin M

 

"Our high-energy six year old son Isaac has been going to “Miss Andy” for several months and we notice a significant change!  Enthusiastic about his appointments, he looks forward to his sessions.  Andy has a sincere heart and he feels comfortable.  He comes out of the sessions feeling more confident and focused.  We are noticing he is more attuned and calm in the days following sessions.  Andy has made great suggestions on different tools and techniques that we can use at home for Isaac, helping him to maintain focus during school and at home.  She checks on him to see how he is doing, this shows a new level of care--not often seen in care providers!

 

"We recommend children who may have difficulties concentrating in school to see “Miss Andy”!  She has made our lives so much better."

~ The Loveday Family
